American Small Car Competition.


The 2011 Chevrolet Cruze will be available to consumers at Winston-Salem Chevy Dealer and other dealerships nationwide by the end of 2010.  The only problem is that Chevy has created such a buzz with the anticipated release of this vehicle that they may have missed the boat for small car competition.  The Cruze is set to replace the Cobalt, but some auto experts feel that there are just too many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to the overcrowded element of the small car class.  U.S. News and Rankings has been a trusted source for consumer research for several years, and in their "affordable small car" class there are 31 vehicles that they have reviewed!  All the Volkswagen Specials going on might be related to the Golf or Jetta, both of which make the list.  Surprisingly enough, the popular Toyota Corolla comes in towards the bottom of the list at number nineteen, but perhaps that is just because it hasn't been redesigned in a while and can't compete with the trendy vehicles that reign the top marks.  You can find the Corolla at Toyota Scion Salt Lake City, and some of the Scion models even score higher on the ranking list!

The number one spot on the list goes to American made Ford Fiesta!  This sporty little car has been gaining popularity and a reputation for reliability in Europe since 2008.  Ford has been actively promoting this car on Facebook and other tactics to gain the money from the younger crowd.  With colorful and creative paint choices, like Yellow Flame or Oxford White, you can't help but smile when you get behind the driver's seat!  Ford also has their Focus on the list of choices, coming in at number 20!  All the other models in between are import brands!  See, that is part of the reason why it is so important for domestic auto makers to turn their attention to this popular class they have neglected for so long!
