They should start introducing these cars here. A turbo engine at low RPM would definitely use less fuel than a larger cc engine, and also our yearly road tax would be less!

If there is a ‘small car’ marque from the GM stable it would be Chevrolet Aveos which is referred to as ‘sub-compact’. An Opel/Vauxhall/Holden/ Saturn-Astra would be a ‘compact’. So it goes into Astras first before Aveos? If so, then it can find friends in the UK market if there is still some brand presence there.
