If we’re being honest, no one expects the factory-installed stereo in a budget-friendly sedan to be all that stellar. But in the case of the Chevy Cruze, flick on the radio and you can expect to be blown out of the proverbial water.
The 2011 Chevy Cruze, one of the most anticipated vehicles this year, and its premium audio system are music to the ears of Chevrolet fans in Wilmington.
Reinforcing the point, the all-new Chevy Cruze recently earned the highest ratings from the Mobile Electronics Competition Association (MECA) in a competition comparing sound systems of popular vehicles. The MECA’s professional audio judges determined that the sound system of the Cruze outperformed those in major competing vehicles, the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla.
Three areas were evaluated in the competition: volume, fidelity, and listening experience. “Audiophiles believe that rating audio performance requires critical listening as well as measuring output,” said Steve Stern, MECA president. “Sound provides a baseline rating of the potential of a sound system, but does not necessarily equate to a great-sounding system. Only the human ear can gauge how natural and believable the listening experience is.” Each of the vehicles in the competition were equipped with comparable factory-installed audio systems. The 2011 Chevrolet Cruze 2LT featured with a Pioneer nine-speaker sound system, which is available as a $445 option on Cruze LT and LTZ models.
