it is quipped with a 1.2 L SOHC engine, the car claims to deliver a 10.6 kmpl mileage that is quite satisfying in the Indian city conditions while on highways and expressways, it provides for a 15kmpl mileage.The ventilated disc front brakes and self-adjusting drum brakes in the rear are quite effective. The front suspension of Chevrolet Aveo U-VA Mcpherson struts with anti torsion roll bars and torsion beam rear suspension along with hydraulic and gas filled front and rear shock absorbers provide for fair stability to the car on the move. The Chevrolet Aveo U-VA has an overall length of 3880 mm, width and height of 1670 mm and 1495 mm respectively with wheelbase of 2480mm. The car has ground clearance of 188 mm. The 4 cylinder engine of the car has a 5 speed manual transmission and sequential electronic fuel injection system. Power steering, glove box, dual horn, deposit tray center console, cup holder, cigar lighter, front ashtray and day/night rear vie wmirror are some of the other popular features on this car.
On the safety front, the Chevrolet Aveo U-VA has anti lock braking system (ABS) and central locking which though is optional in certain variants. Door ajar warning, rear child locks, center high mount stop along with the 2.5 MPH front and rear bumpers are the features quite relevant to the Indian road and car conditions. An attractively designed car, the Chevrolet Aveo U-VA provides with a refreshing circular design theme. The driving seat along with seating facilities is quite adequate whereas glove boxes do provide for sufficient storage capacity.
Yet on the improvement front, the rear visibility of the car blocked due to the tall rear seats deserve a bit of attention. The only one cabin light near the rear view mirror too, is not sufficient and once such limitations are taken care of, Chevrolet Aveo U-VA could well become a landmark for the GM's foray into the Indian automobile market
