Whether you want to know for the sake of comparison or if you want to know what you’ll be getting, it’s always a good idea to look at the top trim for a vehicle, especially one like the Chevy Cruze. The top Cruze trim is called the Premier. We’ll tell you more as we explore all the unique features on the 2018 Chevy Cruze Premier trim.
Premier trim level differences
The Premier trim is front-wheel drive like all other Cruze trims and it shares the same engine as all other Cruze trims except the diesel. When it comes to the engine, you will have a 1.4-liter turbocharged ECOTEC® at your disposal. It provides 153 horsepower, 177 pound-feet of torque, and up to 39-highway mpg on the Premier trim.

The Premier trim level does limit you when it comes to transmission options though. The L trim comes as a manual, and up from there every other trim gives you the option between either a manual or an automatic until you get to the Premier trim which is only offered with an automatic.
