The rumor about the New Celta 2025 has generated millions of followers on social media, promising the return of a cheap car. But the truth is different: the model in question is the Chevrolet Aveo, sold in Mexico for around R$94, equipped with a 1.5 engine and up to six airbags. (Image: Reproduction)

The promise of a return of the new Celta 2025 moved the internet, but it was all just a big misunderstanding involving the Mexican Chevrolet Aveo.

The new Celta 2025 has become a hit on social media and has touched the hearts of those who dream of owning a cheap car in Brazil. But the truth is: it doesn't exist. The confusion began when images of the Mexican Chevrolet Aveo hatchback began to circulate as if they were of a supposed new Celta. Despite the hype, the rumor is false, and Chevrolet has no plans to launch a model below the Onix.

What is the Mexican Chevrolet Aveo hatchback?

The car that inspired the rumors about the new Celta 2025 is the Chevrolet Aveo, a compact that the brand sells in Mexico. The result of a partnership with the Chinese company SAIC-Wuling, it is known in Asia as the 310C. Despite the similarity in size and appearance, the Aveo is not the Celta and will not be. In practice, it is a completely different model and positioned in another market.

The Aveo is available in Mexico in hatchback and sedan versions, but Chevrolet has already made it clear that it has no plans to bring the car to Brazil or revive the Celta. The history of the name is also curious: โ€œAveoโ€ has already been used at another time for models such as the Sonic.

Cheap? Not even close

One of the promises that most captivated fans of the new Celta 2025 was the idea of โ€‹โ€‹an affordable car. But that is also a lie. In Mexico, the Chevrolet Aveo hatchback costs from 312.600 Mexican pesos, the equivalent of around R$94,8. For comparison, the most basic Chevrolet Onix in Brazil costs R$90.770. In other words, calling the Aveo cheap is a stretch.

What does the Chevrolet Aveo offer?

Even though it is a compact car, the Chevrolet Aveo hatchback has interesting equipment. There are three versions: LT manual, Black Edition and LT Plus automatic. All come with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine, which delivers 99 hp and 14,5 kgfm of torque. The entry-level version has a 6-speed manual transmission, while the automatic versions use a CVT transmission.

Standard features include a multimedia center with an 8" screen, smartphone mirroring, stability control, six airbags and a rear-view camera. The Black Edition version has an exclusive look, while the automatic LT Plus comes with additional features such as automatic air conditioning and armrests on the front seats.

In terms of measurements, the Aveo hatchback is 4,17 m long, 1,69 m wide and has a 2,55 m wheelbase, with a 304-liter trunk. Despite its features, it is not a replacement for the beloved Celta.

The new Celta 2025 is nothing more than a mirageโ€ฆ

The dream of reviving Celta stirred up the Brazilian public, but the truth is that the new Celta 2025 does not exist. The Mexican Chevrolet Aveo hatchback, despite being a compact and interesting car, is far from occupying the place that the Celta once had. For those who were expecting a cheap and practical car, we can only hope that Chevrolet or another automaker will look into this niche in the future. For now, the new Celta 2025 is nothing more than a myth.

The current technology used in vehicles does not allow any car to become more popular.

GM would never bring another car to compete with the Onix. In fact, it should never have taken such a good car off the line, and instead modernized it. I have a 2014 Celta Advantage, complete with 25600 km. And I'm happy with it. Lucky for those who still have one. In my humble opinion. Big hug to everyone.

I am generally against privatization, but in the case of the POST OFFICE, not only can it not be protected by the state, it also needs to be managed efficiently and focused on its core business, that is, transporting and delivering correspondence, goods, etc., with care, efficiency, speed and at the lowest cost, and it does none of these things. As a rule, it does not deliver and even blames the recipient for false absence. Fraud is supported and encouraged by its criminal administration. As a rule, it is an expensive, time-consuming service provided with excessive indolence.
