Chevrolet Aveo - The Ultimate Car

I bouught a Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 LS Special Edition vehicle on 15 May 2008. Myself, wife and our two boys (24 and 21 years of age) set off to Mookambika temple from Trivandrum. There was enough space esp. legroom for all of us to sit comfortably throughout the journey. I drove the whole 1600 km of the trip and enjoyed it throughout. Airconditioning was superb and did not affect the momntum of the car considerably. I clocked 13 kmpl on an average. Mind you, Kerala highways are not something you can write home about. I noticed some problems while driving. One was that the dashboard was too close for comfort. To take your eyes off the road and focus on the dashboard to make any reading took around 5-10 secs. Distance between the dashboard and the front glass panel was nearly 2 ft. The horn is placed right in the middle of the steering wheel and in India survival without use of the horn is difficult. To reach the horn to honk it takes time. If a horn can be provided near to the outer periphery, it would have been superb. The best thing about Aveo was the superb interior design and comfort which made value for the money spent. Overall we enjoyed the trip throughout. Today it has gone for its first servicing.beautiful design, got 13kmpl on highways, interiors superb, dashboard looks like an aircraft cockpitseatbelt makes rattling noise esp. on bumpy roads, focusing on dashboard needs heavy eye adjustment
