2007 Chevy Aveo
IMO, looks a lot better then the last generation. Very upper class. Im glad that Chevy will continue to stay #1 in this market, especialy with more and more entries coming onto the market.

I think it looks ok, but what size are those wheels, 13" or 14"? they look so tiny on that car.

Has the same style as the Toyota Echo, sans the punched-in-the-face look. Nice little runabout they got themselves there.

it is nice to see GM getting away from the plasticy econo interiors.
with stylin similar to many of the cars in the segment and better milage/price than most of the segment i am sure the car will continue to be a top seller.

aveos... are CRAP. I rate them around neons
some crazy ass in a stolen car plowed into my dads car along with about 10 others in (west?) orange recently.. while the car was at the body shop my did got an aveo as a rental.
I get hoe and see it, walk in and announce "what the hell is an oversized egg doing in the driveway?" Then I had to move that crapbucket... I coem back in and say "hey dad, do you fee ashamed and embarrased when driving that thing? I would" and he was just like "Yea... can I borrow your car?"

Ughh, looks just like a Toyota Echo with bowtie badges on it. Looks like the Ford Focus has some real competition for ugliest car now!

Focus is too big to be in this segment.
The sub compact market, while not mega huge here, is massive in Mexico, Canada, and Europe.
While none of you would buy one, judge the car on what it offers for its class, not that it doesnt have a V8.

Thats the old one, this one I belive is a bit bigger. Its small, no duh. Dont expect to pack 6 of your friends in it, its not a buss. But for a small econobox, it does the job well.
