They are keeping the current one as a Classic that will go to fleets.
They did the same with the 2003 generation Malibu. Didn't stop the 2004 generation Malibu from ending up in the rental fleets

Looks better than the Civic while still being a fairly generic sedan.

They also lack torque... 129 lb/ft just does not get it done. 264 lb/ft is the main reason I like the Cruze diesel.
I like the VW TDI's (236 lb/ft), Verano Premium (260 lb/ft) and Volt (273 lb/ft instantly) for the same reason.
Nitpick, but it's lb ft, not lb/ft. Torque is the (vector) product of a force and displacement vector.
Here's the deal with Toyota Corolla. It runs forever, hold strong resale value, been proven by decades. Same with Honda Civic.
Toyota/honda dominates econo box buyers market.
GM still haven't figured out how to build a quality Econ box, I think they sit at the round table thinking up ideas on how to fool american buyers to support there sales goal.
What they need to do is sit at the round table, think of a way to make there cars reliable, then the sales numbers rise itself.
That's just my opinion folks.
