Celta Successor? Cheaper Than Onix, New Mini Hatch from Chevrolet Can Achieve Up to 16.9 Km Per Liter on the Road
Celta successor? The new Chevrolet Aveo is a compact model, cheaper than the Onix, but follows the same successful formula as its larger sibling. Developed in China, the Aveo arrived in Latin America at the beginning of this year and is available only in Mexico, where it has always been popular.
As Chevrolet’s entry model in the country, the Aveo features a nice design, satisfactory performance, and an affordable price, making it an interesting alternative for consumers.

Muito bonito vale a pena para concorrer com veículos da Fiat e Renault
Essas propagandas é igual o Lula, só fica na promessa, quando o carro chega no Brasil enche de imposto e sai bem mais caro que o prometido!
Em que época foi diferente? No **** de jóias provavelmente….
Só resta saber se o motor terá a indesejável correia dentada banhada a óleo. Se vier com uma mecânica convencional, com correia dentada, seria bem melhor…
