The Holden Cruze was the name under which General Motors sold the Cruze compact car in Australia, in two unrelated generations. From 2002 to 2006 it was a small hatchback manufactured by Suzuki in Japan, whose styling and most of the engineering were the work of Holden, which also devised the Cruze nameplate. From 2009 it was the South Korean produced Cruze, which replaced the Holden Viva and, as a hatchback, the Holden Astra. This JG series was launched with a 1.8-litre petrol engine and an optional 2.0-litre turbodiesel. Holden began building the sedan at its Elizabeth plant in March 2011 as the JH series, added an Australian developed hatchback later that year and ended manufacturing there on 7 October 2016.
