After three months of pouring $80 of gas into a 2008 Jeep Liberty, I headed up a car hunt with a top priority on fuel efficiency. I ended up with a 2010 Chevrolet Aveo, and it surprised me in so many pleasant ways. It's a very effective little car, and then some. Despite some irritating features such as on star and day running lights, the car is extremely fun to drive. It glides like an eagle, quickly and quietly. Its powerful, both mechanically and electrically, and it uses a very intelligent design. It's pretty tough and durable for its size. It looks a little less sharp than average for its size and type, but its roomy, comfortable, and reliable. I would recommend it, very highly.
Great Car

I cannot be happier with this car! I have the 1LT with Black Metallic paint, XM Radio, rear spoiler, driver convenience package, driver information center, anti-lock brakes, air conditioning, and automatic transmission. The car is extremely quiet both inside and out. All the doors shut with a luxury sound (unlike the tin can sound on other economy cars). Fuel mileage is great - - I average 36-40 MPG @ 68 MPH on the highway depending on wind direction/terrain. In the city the average is more like 29 MPG. Visability out of all windows is great. For me their is no blind spots. With OnStar and a supurb warranty (100K powertrain) you cannot go wrong!
Aveo? More like Ave-go!

I had bought my Aveo from our local Chevrolet dealership when the vehicle was taken in as a trade-in and when I had to move on from my previous Chevrolet (A Cobalt LT). At first, the car was nothing special, and it had some issues that, for whatever reason, no Chevy dealership near here or there could seem to fix. It got to the point that after constantly calling Chevy's toll-free number they actually gave me what equated to a 3-year factory warranty, during which time I had to pay for nothing but routine stuff (oil changes, tires, etc). So, you would think that this car was a total waste of money, and you're probably wondering why the rating that I have given it. Well, after logging some highway miles on it and making some longer travels, the car warmed up and really came to life. In fact, it turned out to be such a pleasant surprise that, although the car has been fully paid off for nearly a year, I opted to keep it while picking up a new 2019 vehicle so I could keep it in the fold and have a backup plan that I'm quite familiar with. While the Aveo does sport a 1.6 liter engine, it's more than ample for the weight of the car, and the handling, drive, and braking system are all top notch, while keeping in mind that for multiple months at a time there are winter tires on the front of it. It does have its faults (lack of technological advancements, suspension system lacks), but for the dollar, this little guy has been very much worth the investment made, and I look forward to it continuing to provide me some great drives for many more months and years yet to come!

I bought my 2010 Chevrolet Aveo hatchback April 2015, I have now owned it for a year. This was my first vehicle so I was super excited about it, it only had 2800 miles on it and two previous owners. So it was still a pretty new car to be a used car (if that makes sense). It's a really nice car for a first time buyer, the only cons I would say I have is that it isn't really powerful and if it's windy outside it seems like the car "moves with the wind". That may have something to do with how small the car is, also I feel like if you have the AC on it feels like the car takes a little longer to accelerate. Other then those few cons I'm very grateful for the car I've been blessed with, and plus I will still have some trade in value for it. So that's awesome!

I liked the car until I got into the heat of the summer. When two or more people are in the car the AC doesn't cool the car when you are doing stop and go driving. I live in Las Vegas and the car is uncomfortable in the afternoon heat. The dealership told me that that is the way it is! My gas mileage has dropped to 25 mpg. The sight lines are surprisingly poor also. The large support columns block a lot of your vision.
