Your basic warranty lasts for 60 months or 60,000 miles, while the basic warranty on the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze runs out after 36 months and 36,000 miles. The Elantra's powertrain warranty is good for 120 months or 100,000 miles, and its corrosion perforation warranty runs out after 84 months with unlimited mileage. The Cruze, on the other hand, has a powertrain warranty that expires after 60 months or 60,000 miles and a corrosion perforation warranty of just 72 months or 100,000 miles.

Fuel Efficiency

Both the 2018 Hyundai Elantra and the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze are capable of achieving up to an EPA-estimated 40 mpg on the highway. However, the Elantra's Eco version also offers better city efficiency. You can expect up to an EPA-estimated 32 mpg city with the Elantra's 1.4L turbocharged inline-four engine, whereas the Cruze's 1.4L ECOTEC DOHC turbocharged four-cylinder musters just 30 mpg on city streets. No wonder the Elantra is considered one of the best commuter vehicles on the market.
