The Chevy Cruze hatchback looks good. And I'll bet this shape gets better highway mpg also. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5niWyC2vYc&feature=youtube_gdata_player"]2012 Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback - YouTube[/ame] .
EPA ratings don't reflect any highway improvement. Though, there might no have bee a seperate test for the hatchback, or it's buried in the test results range on the sticker. If numbers released for the public got that detailed, there might be a decrease in the city rating since hatchbacks tend to be heavier than the sedan. I still prefer the new Focus styling.
