COMBINING some pretty masculine looks, some sporty (ish) handling, decent fuel economy and great all-round versatility, the new Aveo becomes a credible five-door alternative hatchback that delivers little compromise.

The new Aveo has a completely redesigned exterior and cabin, plus a newly developed chassis and body structure that has been engineered to make everyday driving in a small car as enjoyable as possible. In order to ensure this, engineers developed an all-new chassis for the Aveo that is among the most rigid in its segment.

But the Aveo also offers a quiet and relaxed driving experience when you need it.

Fuel efficiency, enjoyable driving and a small environmental footprint were the main criteria guiding the design of the Aveo's engine line-up. The 1.4-litre petrol engine gives the Aveo a more lively acceleration and an immediate feeling of performance during low-speed driving.

The rest of the engine range comprises of a 1.2-litre petrol engine which put's out a modest 84bhp plus a 1.3 VCDi diesel option.

The latter is the first VCDi diesel to appear in a small Chevrolet in Europe and it features a common-rail fuel injection system, stop/start technology and a variable-geometry turbocharger.

It is available with two power outputs – 74 and 93bhp – with the latter also offered in a low-emission, EcoDiesel form.
