Yeah, I don't think the rear is a Cruze strong point either. I can't prove it, but I think it is a Korean design trend. Here is the Cruze :

Chevrolet Cruze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quote:
Underpinned by the front-wheel drive GM Delta II platform, GM said the Cruze was "developed by a global design and engineering team". Most of the design work was conducted by GM Daewoo, with Opel responsible for most of the engineering. This development program spanned over 27 months at a cost of US$4 billion. A total of 221 prototypes were tested in Australia, Canada, China, South Korea, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States
That's my theory and I'm sticking to it,
