2005 Chevrolet Aveo Review
Special Value Hatchback
A common-ground car that brings people together.
Introduction
reviewed by
The Chevrolet Aveo offers affordable transportation in a choice of four-door sedan or five-door hatchback. Starting below $10,000, the Aveo challenges the Toyota Echo, Scion xA, Kia Rio, and Hyundai Accent for the base rung of the transportation ladder. Aveo is based on the Daewoo Kalo, a Korean car that's popular in many countries around the world.
The base models are basic, but the interiors are quite nice. The front seats are comfortable and the back seats are surprisingly roomy. The Aveo looks good, particularly the sedan, and the body panels fit well. Both models get zippy performance from a twin-cam four-cylinder engine built by GM. Sharp steering makes the Aveo fun to drive, while its decent ride and reasonably quiet cabin make for pleasant transportation.
