The Chevrolet Cruze has always been a General Motors automobile. Started production in 2001 and spanned two generations with two unrelated vehicles. The first generation, a subcompact crossover SUV, was manufactured by Suzuki in Japan under a joint venture with GM.

GM applied the "Cruze" moniker to the 2008 generation onwards. They applied this perfectly suiting name to a globally-developed compact sedan, designed, manufactured and retailed entirely within GM. Compared to the original, the second series is related only in name, and does not serve as its successor. Instead, the New Chevrolet Cruze in Chicago replaces two unrelated cars - the Chevrolet Cobalt and Daewoo Lacetti. Badged as the Daewoo Lacetti Premiere, the South Korean-market Cruze entered production in 2008, partially replacing the Daewoo Lacetti sold since 2002. This previous Lacetti was sold internationally as either a New Buick, New Chevy, Daewoo, Holden or Suzuki, but for the Cruze, GM has retained the "Chevrolet Cruze" name for most markets including Chicago's Market. The Chicago Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 has also been phased out in 2010, replaced by the Chevrolet Cruze.
