Damn, this Aveo RS destined for the Detroit floors when it opens in the USA our time tonight is pretty good looking, and its has a suitably equipped powertrain as well.
The Aveo usually has to make do with mundane engines putting out just over a 100 horses but for this Aveo RS, it gets a turbocharged 1.4 litre Ecotec engine making 138 horses and 200Nm of torque, the equivalent of a 2.0 litre normally aspirated engine. It’s mated to a 6-speed manual transmission in this car.
The reason GM developed the Aveo RS is so that it could show that it’s possible for B-segment cars to look good and convey excitement. Americans do not historically touch (relatively) tiny cars like these unless they absolutely have to, but these days even Detroit are pushing small cars, like this new Aveo and the new Ford Fiesta which was just launched in the US not too long ago.
Look after the jump for a full gallery of the Aveo RS.

they are sopy the satria neo head lamps design..
looks like jazz, but with meaner lines… nice…
but chevy's brand not so established here, not many ppl willing uo part huge cassh for overpriced car here, including me
not sure bout reliability and after sales service though…
oh, and since all are so obsesses bout this… i am first, lol
2 thumbs up!!!
I wanna dis car to come to Malaysia. Can?
Woot
double damn!
Nice car. Bring it here in M'sia.
wow nice aveo……when it will to come to malaysia……
naza will look into it soon…..
Damn, why such a nice car display and available in other places! Wonderful!1.4 litre manual 6-speech gear Ecotec engine 138 horse power. I lit if the price is affordable. Three salute to GM !!!
All is not lost with GM.
They do have very nice cars.
The Koreans have contributed the rather stunning Cruze, and now this. Even the last Chevy Epica gave a hint how well they can do.
They still have what it takes for an impressive range if they fully utilize its European arm's products like the Insignia and new Astra.
Only if GM can drop its dead weight US operations, and only make the Corvette, Camaro and GMC trucks. Leave the cars to the Europeans and Koreans manufacturing.
I'm thinking this Aveo would be a very good Corsa replacement.
how to open rear door?
duhh!!! its the same as the alfa 147
sweet car – and I can park it easily too in the city.
If only our Savvy look like this…
NICE!… would have made a better looking pair of Skidz in Transformers
not many ppl willing uo part huge cassh for overpriced car here
overpriced? look at captiva(nice package,good price)..most of u know why chevy suffers in sales. no need to talk abt it anymore. but hopefully naza will rebadge the captiva and expect better competition with crv.
nop, the head lamp outer design looks like new accord
Chevy overdid the front grill….too big & the Chevy logo looks "our of place".
The rest of the car looks fine. Let see if Naza will bring this here^^
Yah, bring it on here !
it would be nice if the new waja replacement model has the looks of aveo rs front end…
Naza do your job.
it looks like my satria neo in front design..no wonder it looks good
Looks like this Chevy touched the All Spark….
How come this Aveo didn't make it into the last Transformers the Movie? ;p
This car is a 1.4lturbo charged engine. I really like this design of the car ! Powerful and Sporty!
OMG! its optimus eyes!
head light looks abit like WV Scirocco
I really wonder why Chevrolet never enhanced their CRUZE? If they modified their CRUZE to sportier bodykits and enhancing their engine of the car like 2.0l turbocharged. I think it will be much better!
when will naza CKD this Aveo RS?
Please, can NAZA dont CKD this unit?….Just CBU this unit and sell it under their name….
should bring GM's range of 4WD and Pick-Up. they all look awesome. the market will like it.
PLZ don beg NAZA to CKD Chevy… it is a disgrace!
not so much
where to put front plate number?
damn nice hatchback!!
