2006 Chevrolet Aveo: America’s Price Leader

without comments

The only thing American about the compact Aveo automobile is it’s Chevrolet name. Built in Korea [or in China] by GM Daewoo, the Aveo is America’s price champion coming in at just below ten thousand dollars. That’s appropriate; it is possible to still buy a new car or truck inside USA for underneath ten thousand dollars excluding taxes, dealer prep, and destination charges. Let’s take a closer search at Chevy’s bargain basement persons hauler.

Offered as either a four door sedan or as a five door hatchback, the Chevrolet Aveo fills an critical niche in the Chevy line up as an entry level econocar. Priced nearly five thousand dollars less than Chevy’s next most costly style, the Cobalt, the Aveo permits for Chevrolet to contend for a piece of the youth market. The Aveo is expressly targeted to compete against comparable products from Scion, Kia, Hyundai, and Toyota.

So, exactly what do consumers get for their money, particularly which has a base product? For starters, the Aveo comes with tires, a steering wheel, bumpers, and safety glass. Seriously, regular equipment for your Aveo is a 1.6L I4 motor paired having a 5 speed manny tranny. Air conditioning will price you additional, but the base equipment list does consist of an AM/FM radio, rear wiper, a cargo cover, and side impact air bags to the driver and front seat passenger. Option packages involve much better sound, air, an automatic transmission, and also a host of other accessories.

Which has a 97 inch wheelbase and a curb weight of practically 2350 pounds, the Aveo absolutely can be a contender in the lightweight category. Headroom of virtually 40 inches will allow taller drivers easier access, but one can only wonder if anybody would find the Aveo all that comfortable to begin with based within the car’s size along with the high quality of the seating?

GM Daewoo [50.1% owned by General Motors] recently released a new version from the Aveo [called the Gentra in Korea] that currently is only obtainable in Asia. The new Gentra/Aveo incorporates a rounder exterior departing from the dated wedged shape of the recent Aveo. No official word as of this writing if and when the new product will make its American debut.

While the Aveo is specific not to win quite a few awards, it does provide for buyers possessing limited means an affordable mode of transportation. For Chevrolet, who was lacking a fundamental house grown style, the Aveo brings in buyers who might have otherwise bypassed Chevy dealers and headed directly to Scion or Kia for their first car. Beyond that the Aveo is a really forgettable vehicle and first time buyers might desire to think about a great used car or truck instead.
