Used 2004 Chevrolet Aveo Sedan Consumer Reviews
Excellent for the money
Let's face it-- it only makes sense to rate this car compared to others in its price range... and in that context I am very pleased. Fit and finish is better than I expected, but the biggest surprise is the respectable ride and comfort. I got several extra rebates as a GM card holder, so the price was unbelievable!
Leap of Faith
The Chevy Aveo looks like a winner. Great styling and roomy. Believe it or not,the cabin,except for the front seat hip room which is a few MMs narrower, is roomier than a Corolla.The drive is good and the performance is fine. The fit and finish seems very good and after test driving the Aveo,the Kia Rio,and the Accent back to back,the Aveo came out a clear winner in all aspects.Especially the low noise levels compared to the other two.The car is built by Daewoo (lot's of junky cars here) and sports a GM badge(just drive a new Cavalier and you'll remember why you swore off GM so many years ago) We'll see if GM lets us down this time,so far so good.

Great car for the price
The Aveo Special Value Edition is an excellent vehicle for the price. With current rebates and incentives you can own this vehicle for less than $8000. It's quick and is fun to drive. MPG is around 32 MPG combined so far. Handling is good at city speeds, but gets a little "loose" on the expressway.....probably due to the smaller tires and light body weight.
Low cost commute
I bought this car for $9k in 2005 with only 10k miles on it. I have a 20 mile commute, half highway half city. I get around 32 hwy and 30 average. It started missing in year 3 but new plugs fixed the problem. Also a sensor on the brake pedal broke and would not shift into gear. At 80k replaced the timing belt and water pump at the same time. Ran great. At 137k now it needs some engine repairs. Waiting to hear on cost.
Love this car
I just love this car I have had it a month and a half. It was the last 2004 on the lot and it had a 5-speed. I have averaged about 29 mpg around town and 38-40 on out of town trips. I like the quirky style and the cavernous interior.
