I was looking for a car in the budget of 7-9 lacs on road hence had 4/5 clear options.....Honda City, Ford Fiesta, Hyundai Verna, SX4 and Chevrolet Aveo. My primary requirement in addition to a confortable interior was Fuel economy since I travel almost 100-120 kms a day.
After much deliberations, I finally decided to purchase a Chevy Aveo in March 2008. This was certainly an excellent choice. The Car looks heavy & masculine. The drive is too smooth. The interiors are plush. AC cooling is class...even the passenger on the rear seat start feeling the cool immediately.
I was very happy to drive my car but over a period of time, started realising that it has already started hitting my pocket. With a mileage of around 10 km per litre, it has become a 'challenge' to drive the car. (This is much below the promised mileage)
I reported this issue to the Showroom on my first reassurence service (1000km), when I was duly informed that this will improve after the first service at 5000km. Now I have already driven 7000+ km and the first service is also over....the fuel economy story remains the same. I had even spoken to a Chevy Executive in Delhi, who very promptly arranged a 'Mileage Check-up" for my car....however nobody turned up from the local dealer (Mumbai) on the fixed up date (In fact I had to compromise on many other commitments only to ensure that the car gets checked up)
So...to all the prospective buyers, I leave the question to selecting this car...as open ended.
