Chevrolet Aveo [2006-2009] User Reviews

 

Exterior Exterior looks are very elegant, the petrol tank filling is from the right side, which is more comfortable according to me.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Enteriors are spacious as well as beautiful, lots of leg space for the front seat passenger, lots of space for the luggage. The front cabinet is very huge and provides the extra dose of beauty, though this can create a problem while driving for people of short height, especially ladies as the distance between pedals and seat is larger than most of the cars. The horn at the center is a little irritating though not a problem.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent and powerfull engine, I have myself gone upto 170 Km per hour at Vadodara- Ahmedabad highway. It can go above this speed also, I think touching 200 is possible. Gearbox is also quite good and gear shifiting is as smooth as it can be. Fuel economy is the only minus point. In general it is tough to extract more than 8 km/hr in city and more than 12-13 Km/hr on highways, though I can easily extract 17 Km/hr from the same car on highways and 11 Km/hr on city. This is due to the understanding developed after 30000 kms of driving the same car. The trick is not to push the accelerator too much, especially at low speeds as the engine is already more powerful than required.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Stearing and suspension is also nothing short of excellent, ensuring the smoothest drive possible on even as well as rough roads. Pick up is excellent and only the quality of road is the limit.

 

Final Words The car is very good, but the chevrolet service sucks.. low fuel economy and costly spare parts ensure that only lion hearted shall go for it as it may prove costly in the long run.

 

Areas of improvement Fuel Economy, Location of horn buzzer, if seat can be designed to slide a little further towards the front cabinet, it can be made more comfortable for ladies to drive. I will not recommend to reduce the size of the front cabinet as that is the major attraction in the interior looks.
