Doesn't take a turbo to generate higher modern underhood temperatures lately. Modern engineering seems to have conquered turbo issues in the last 20+ years. Better oils, better lubed water cooled turbos, better gaskets and sealing, make modern turbos pretty bulletproof, turbo wise IMHO.
Turbos still have the same effect, making a smaller motor have the torque and the power of a larger engine without the friction and the weight.
Hybrid or turbo, both needless complication for some, but I don't think turbo durability will concern the average Cruz buyer.
