I have had no issues with this this car.
This little car is HUGE inside. There is so much space. I have to take a double-take whenever I get out.
This car has all the options. There are many well thought-out items.
This is the quietest small car I have ever driven.
I just looked up the Aveo at Chevrolet. com - where is this car made? And do you have any idea how it can be so small and get a 5 star crash test? Anyone?
The Chevrolet Aveo is also known as the Daewoo Kalos in Europe and some parts of Asia. It is made in Korea. It is penned by Pininfarina, the same company which penned Ferraris. It got 5 stars due to sufficient crumple zones, airbags and a stiff body.
Yes - the car is a Korean Daewoo Kalos with a Chevy badge on front. Daewoo spent a fortune designing a new line-up of world quality cars to compete, but then they went bankrupt. GM stepped in and "took over" Daewoo and kept the Kalos and Lacetti (Aveo and Optra). Both cars are exceptionally well designed and are packed with features not normally associated with economy vehicles.
The poster prior is correct that these cars are true global products. The motors are designed and built by General Motors Holden in Australia (At least for the Lacetti). These motors are great economical workhorses. A great pair of cars.
In fact, the car isn't even called Daewoo in Europe anymore. Chevrolet has officially put their badge on the car in Europe too, so now it's called the Chevrolet Kalos.
