In 2012, General Motors recommended using Dex-Cool coolant for the Chevrolet Cruze. However, the car isn't too particular; most generic coolants, whether pre-diluted or mixed with water 50/50, should do the trick. Drivers have discovered that you can get a gallon for just over $10 at big retailers like Walmart, or maybe slightly more at auto parts stores such as Advanced Auto Parts or AutoZone.
