Chevrolet Introduces A New Affordable Car, Set To Replace The Onix, Standing Out In The Market With Its Accessible Price Of Just R$ 48 Thousand.

Chevrolet, a subsidiary of General Motors, stands out as one of the leading automakers in the Brazilian market. Its cars, known for their popularity and quality, often rank among the best-selling in the country. An example of this is the Chevrolet Onix, which has become one of the favorites of Brazilian consumers, consolidating Chevrolet’s position as a leading brand in the national automotive sector. Now it seems that it’s time for a new affordable car to come into the scene and the acclaimed Onix to phase out; check out the details of the new Chevrolet Monza.

According to media reports, in the Chinese market, the Chevrolet Onix Plus did not perform well, leading GM to seek a replacement that would appeal to drivers there. The new affordable car chosen was the Chevrolet Monza, which is offered as a compact midsize sedan and is positioned below the Chevrolet Malibu.

However, this model will not arrive here anytime soon, as it is slightly larger than the Onix Plus and it wouldn’t make sense to have both cars competing for the same consumer. The model features a light hybrid version with a 48-volt engine.

To sell more in the Asian market and surpass the Onix, the new model does away with three-cylinder engines. In its simplest version, the new affordable car is equipped with a four-cylinder 1.5 engine producing 109 horsepower and 14.3 kgfm, which the Chinese are already accustomed to, as it equips other models from the brand. This engine option is available with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission.

With the 1.5 engine, the new affordable car replacing the Onix can reach 100 km/h in 12.9 seconds and achieves urban consumption of 17 km/l and highway consumption of 20 km/l in the Chinese cycle.

The second option is somewhat more modern and features a 1.3 turbo engine with light hybrid technology of 48V. In total, it delivers 163 horsepower and 23.4 kgfm at 1,800 rpm in this configuration, which receives a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Chevrolet claims that this option reaches 100 km/h in 9.2 seconds and has urban consumption of 20 km/l and highway consumption of 20.9 km/l. Its price is one of the highlights, as converting it to real currency, the new affordable car costs only R$ 48 thousand.

Onix Remains The Best-Selling Car In Brazil

Although it is leaving the Chinese market, here the Onix Continues To Lead Chevrolet’s Sales. The brand recently launched a new version of the Onix, the Joy, which now features some mechanical improvements from the 2017 hatch lineup.

Even while maintaining the design and pre-facelift, the Chevrolet Onix Joy presents an improved mechanical set and offers excellent cost-benefit. The vehicle’s engine here is the same as the more expensive versions, the 1.0 SPE/4 with 80 horsepower and a maximum torque of 9.8 mkgf with ethanol.

Onix Remains The Best-Selling Car In Brazil

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

With a 1.6-liter 118 hp engine, a 460-liter trunk, and a 7-inch multimedia system, the Nissan V-Drive 2026 is sold in Mexico starting at 339,900 Mexican pesos and relies on low maintenance costs to win over app drivers, fleet owners, and self-employed professionals.

Fuel cells that use bacteria on the seabed could eliminate expensive battery replacement and keep submerged sensors working for much longer.

While countries compete for land for solar panels, Switzerland unrolls solar panels like a carpet between the tracks of an active railway.

The duel between Shein and Temu gained a new chapter in London, with accusations of mass copying, a dispute over suppliers, and an impact on global fast-fashion.

Costing R$ 57,676 and with a range of up to 815 km, the Volkswagen up! TSI 2018 gets 16.3 km/l on the highway and can be financed with estimated installments of R$ 1,314.
