The hatchback variation of the Chevrolet Cruze passenger car is a relatively new addition to the Chevrolet lineup. Nevertheless, it has arguably matched the popularity of its traditional sedan counterpart.

Both the Chevrolet Cruze Sedan and the Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback are set to receive a refresh for the 2019 model year. Such alterations prove that Chevy isn’t ready to give up on the compact hatchback segment.

What’s New?

The most notable change for the Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback is a new front fascia design. Additionally, the 2019 Cruze Hatchback receives a new Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system, complete with standard 7-inch diagonal touch screen display.

The 2019 Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback is available at four trim levels: LS, LT, Premier, Diesel.
