2010 Chevrolet Cruze: petrol or diesel?

Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.

Petrol 58% pass first time (all 2010 cars: 60%) Stands out: engine oil leaks 2.9×, exhaust system 1.9×, engine warning light 3.3× 1,285 MOTsSee the petrol guide › Diesel 55% pass first time (all 2010 cars: 60%) Stands out: drive shaft (cv) joints 3.9×, engine warning light 3.7× 505 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›

Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
