New Chevy Aveo offers 'dynamic handling'

UK motorists eyeing up new models could be tempted to get behind the wheel of a new Chevrolet Aveo.

That is after the company boasted that the new model combines sleek looks, sporty handling and key safety features.

For the money-conscious driver, Chevy has also highlighted the Aveo's superior fuel economy.

The new model comes with a refined interior, which included a number of innovative storage compartments as well a new six-speed automatic transmission.

However, it is the styling which Chevrolet believes will attract a younger audience to the model.

"The Aveo's external styling brings a youthful feel and sportiness to the class. At the front, a large twin grille with centrally positioned badge immediately identifies it as a Chevrolet," the firm explained.

"Distinguishing features include exposed, motorcycle-inspired headlamps, devoid of any lens cover. They are housed in dual tubes, with high-gloss black bezels and chrome rings. As with the Chevrolet Spark, the rear door pull handles sit in the upper section of the door, creating a coupe-like appearance."
