Chevrolet Aveo U-VA [2006-2012] User Reviews

It is almost two year when I purchased the Aveo-UVA LS (Rein forest Green) on 31.03.08, after long research for hatchback cars. While purchasing my focus was on inner cabin space and fuel economy and of-course looks also. In all respect it fits well on all parameters.

I am very much satisfied with my car performance as It gives a comfort, smooth & quite (noiseless) drive both in city and on high-way and Big Car Feeling from inside.

Cabin: Quiet, Cool, Spacious, Roomy and Airy with Good Leg room & having superb suspension. Big car -from inside. Three persons sit COMFORTABLY at rear seat.

Performance: Very much stable on the highway. Firm grip & Flat on the roads- just touching the ground. AC is also effective.

Fuel Economy: Till date after crossing 12000kms the average I am getting is amazing. I am very much satisfied with the performance regarding fuel economy. 14 in City & 18 on Highway

Servicing-Very nice people. Always ready & keen to help you out. Even I serviced my vehicle 15-20 days later after the last date is over.

Slight low power and specially when you are driving on hills having narrow road, numerous turns, hot & humid outside and above all the AC is ON then you face some problems (My Experience).

Back Gear Shift also creates problems (Many customers’ experience).

Front pillar also creates problem as some time it is very difficult to locate the objects coming from sides.

Otherwise it’s a NICE & GOOD Car

 

Good looking stylish & comfartable Premium HatchbackSlight low power, Back Gear but OK,

I was very much tempted to test drive the U-VA and write a review of it here at carwale.com ;-) Finally got my hands on Chevy U-VA this afternoon. After driving it, I have mixed feelings. Drive was not very short, drove it for almost 30 kms which included normal to heavy city traffic and highway too. City drive was good, even in heavy city traffic it was giving a confident feeling despite of the fact that it has got 1.2L engine. Engine couldn't give promising feeling on highway though. Car was out of breathe when it was crossing 100 kmph mark. NVH factors are very good and car is very silent from inside, there were virtually no vibrations. Looks are good, especially from side. I didn't like the fascia though. U-VA has got numerous space inside, boot is sufficient too. Interiors look average. Features set is average too. Car is from GM, so maintenance would be costly, resale won't be great. Price is too high for what they are offering. Overall a nice car for city drive. Better and cheaper option would be Swift. Getz can be considered too if you are looking for space.Space, build-quality, NVHPricy, interiors, highway ride quality, GM offering

I have been owning UVA for nearly 10 months and I am very satisfied. The car gives mileage of 10-12 in city with AC on and 16-17 on highway with AC on.

The Bangalore dealer, Vijai motors is very helpful even for minor issues. Chevy India is also very good and they always follow up.

This must be one of the strongest cars in India as it weighs 1100 kgs. Who cares about top speed, we need to feel safe in our car.

I previously had santro and feel that UVA outperforms santro, swift, and getz (friends have) in all departments.

All in all, go for UVA if you desire a safe and stylish car. The car performs excellently in the city and highway, and offroad too.

It's very smooth vehicle. Freinds , collegues who ever have test driven my vehicle liked it in general. It's very specious in side. Especially leg room for rear seat passenger is very good. Cabin is very silent , no vibrations. It's suspensions are very impressive hence no rattling sound of body parts / fiber parts inside the cabin. You get comfort of a big car in this small car. As regards fuel economy all leading magazines have quoted 13-14 kmpl (mix city+high way). 12kmpl in city is good enough. I have test driven Swift,xeta,Getz also but moment I test drove UVA I finalised my CAR. Looks,space,comfort

I have been deciding to buy a premium hatchback. Taken the TD of Getz, Swift & U-VA. The ride quality of U-VA surpasses the rest and it is extremely spacious too. Driven with 4 people and the AC on in the city... never felt the lack of power. Even in top gear at low speeds the engine is smooth. Overall a nice city hatch. GM could have made it tad cheaper though.Very very spacious, Ride Quality, Excellent gear ratiosSmall boot, grey interiors

dear frnds, before buying UVA, i have studied GETZ Prime , Swift and Logan. also test ride the Getz and swift. but when i drove the UVA, i forgot eveything else and my deciesion locked to UVA. Its ultimate to drive and also very eye catching. Very good AC, solid braking, pickup. Gear Shift is very easy. Noise and vibration inside the cabin of UVA is almost negligible, compare to GETZ & Swift. there is lot of vibration on clutch paddle of GETZ. Overall its nice to have a car like AVEO U-VA. 

After a long time i am adding comment on  Mileage i've got from my UVA-LS without AC it is coming around 14-15 (city) and 18-19 KMPL (highway)...& 12-13(city), 16-18(high) with AC.  Yaar agar aap log sochte hoge ki yeh mileage kam hai to MARUTI, and other HYUNDAI ka bhi itna hi hai (except ALTO)

rest u all know UVA has got the GREAT stability on road ....

Nice looking, Good power, excellent interiors, good enough mileage, spaciousboot space,

Its great looking car.in first instance u see it and you are in love at first sight.But all love don,t get the destination of marrige .Becuase marrige is real test of love.So for the Real test we have to wait and watch.

But one thing from GMI I want to know As you mentioned your lunching date please mention the date and year of  withdrawing it.So at least we make up our mind accordingly and we don't feel cheated as in case of OPEL  Corsa you did.

GOOD STYLE.NOT TO BIG AND NOT TO SMALLMAY BE FUEL ECONOMY.

Looks good, drove it and found to be good. The fear is all about the maintenace cost which others talk loudly on GMs performance. Worthy car GM has attempted to give within the cost parameters and has dealt it starightforward with the goodies that it offers. would have been better if they had included air bags which is a feature even in Estilo , a lower segment than which GM wants to attack.Good car and value for money with all the specifications and fittings.Comes with plush interiors.Not sure of maintenance and service costs and tested on fuel economy
