First impression I got from side view was it looks like the Impreza hatch.

Still it's very, very nice looking (in render form of course).

It does look rather nice. Build a 3 door sports version Holden please.
Hopefully they will get the quality right. No touch of the Camira's.

If it looks anything like that it'll no doubt knock the Commodore out from first place. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the Cruze is a great package (albeit not a dynamic one), giving the brand a hatch variant will only help it become the major small car in the market. It sold more than the Falcon sedan last month. That render looks fantastic. A little Imprezza, some 1-Series and a little Astra thrown in. Like it a lot.

Yeah, sort of reminds me of the Mazda 3 at the back. Looks good.

The Holden Cruze has such hard seats though!

Does anyone know how much the Cruze is going to change when it is built locally?
