Beyond my expectations. Review on Chevrolet Aveo

This is a winner compared to its competition. In its class and beyond I think it is one of the best packages in the market.

1. Great looker - The design makes you give your car a second look & you wont feel tired looking at it every morning(No wonder it was designed by the top designer in the world)

   
   




2. Luxurious interiors - Great feel and colour combination. The art leather seat covers give it an even richer look and easy maitainenance.(Remember the interiors are beige & it would do well to keep your windows up and the AC on). Yes, you can't sit too close as your knee will hit the dash, but then I sit too close to the wheel an I have learned to adjust my position.

   
   




3. Notchy gears(especially from 1st to second). Somewhere I feel it grows on you like its own character. But then, nothings perfect & nor does it irritate you to spoil your mood.

   
   




4. Nice colours - I have taken the Golden colour - base version intentionally as the black and gold mix forms a nice combination. Yes - I put the chrome strip behind - gives more character. Everyone likes a nice rear.!

   
   




5. Good performance - it is responsive on higher rpm's and that is when you feel the pleasure. Little slow to catch up but that makes for good city driving.

   
   




6. Great suspension - This is what I like, I have a tavera too but I enjoy this better. Its design & overhangs are about right which licks the speed breakers. You don't have to crawl.

   
   




7. Consumption - Have'nt checked it by the drop but it does not pinch my pocket with the AC on even. I say this from experience as I have been an owner of Marutis and Fiats.

   
   




8. Cheap spares - Have'nt had the chance to buy them as yet but I noticed that the they were comparatively cheaper to its other sisters in the market.

   
   




9. Dealer - Not so great or responsive. I guess its the few bad apples present but I like the way they try. It would have been great if they strictly adhere to the service offer and policy that GM has.

   
   




10. I did consider the brand - Chevrolet from GM
