GM has bungled the Cruze diesel almost as badly as they did diesel cars in the late '70s. The difference being that this was marketing bungling vs just bad engines the first time around. The original Cruze diesel was a top end car, no manual transmission, all the bells and whistles, that they somehow thought they were going to sell to cheapskates who wanted 50mpg...

Unfortunately, General Motors, after totally failing to advertise or try to sell the 1.6 CTD for three years, has announced that it won't be available in 2020 Equinox or Terrain (and they already announced there won't be any 2020 Cruze, diesel or gas).
