    Hi everyone,

    I am a B.Tech student in Delhi College Of Engineering. We have recently bought a Chevrolet Aveo LT, after a series of rigrous comparison between.

    1. Ford Fiesta

    2. Hyundai i20

    3. Hyundai Verna

    4. Fiat Linea

    5. Volkswagen Vento

    (Budget under 7 lac)

    The very first thing that must be considered before saying anything about a car is certainly it's price. For example it makes little sense to compare a honda accord with honda city and conclude that city lacks charm!


    For a 6.6 lac car the exteriors are decent. Far better than the TATA cars that absolutely lack cuts and curves. However the allow wheels are absolutely dumb and look more like "wheel covers" and also the 14" wheels are not justified, it should have atleast been 15" across. Even hatchback cars (volkswagen polo) now come with a 15" wheel. In terms of wheels Fiat Linea rocks!

    Neway apart from the wheels, which is just average, the overall exterior is above average compared to the other cars in the market in a range of about 8 lac (exceptions being Volkswagen Vento and Fiat Linea)

    As far as interiors are concerned this car is simply way ahead of the others. This is the primary reason why we chose this over Fiat Linea, Hyundai Verna and Ford Fiesta. The wooden trim and the learher finish are simply excellent. Plastic quality is also ok. Seating position is also comfortable and feels reasonably spacious.

    However the plastic of the glass holders should have been better. This is one thing that lowers the excitement involved with the interiors, though after a bit of careful scrutinization. (Seriously)

    The music system is also ok. Bass is good till medium range of volume after which it begins to crack. This is as expected as the system does not have separate sub-woofers. But still the rare woofers can produce a decent amount of bass for casual listning. As a rough idea the sound is approximately equivalent to a music system of about 2100 watts P.M.P.O (30 to 40 watts RMS). Trebble is ok even at slightly higher range of volume.

    AC is very good, capable of cooling down the car to approx 25 degree celcius in about 200 sec with the outside temperature being approx 35 degree celcius.

     

    The car is upto the expectation of a true petrol engine. A sheer pin-drop-silence even after ignition! Acceleration is fairly good. It reaches 100km/hr in about 14 to 15 sec. Maximum I've reached is about 140 to 145km/hr. I think it should reach about 150km/hr on good roads without much hassels.

    The car is  very stable, streeing is good, above average handling. I pulled it to 85km/hr on the 2nd gear that too on a football field!! The car reaches upto 110km/hr in a butter like manner and you don't feel the speed with the windows pulled up. In short the ride is well in control and smooth (thanks to gas filled shock absorbers)

    The only noticible problem was that several times (4 to 5 times) the transmission abruptly nutrilized on over accelerating suddenly (above 5000 rpm) on the 2nd and 3rd gear. Well this was all off  the road, while trying drifts. Has never happened on normal drives on the road.

    Fuel economy is about

    a: 15 km/l on highways  (without AC, with speed crossing 100km/hr when favourable).

    b: 13 km/l on highways  (with AC, with speed crossing 100km/hr when favourable).

    c: 17 km/l on highways  (without AC, with speed not exceeding 70km/hr).

     

    Aftersales dealing is certainly poor Well this may vary from dealers to dealers so I dont wanna comment much on this. The sales department was dissapointing after purchase, they showed severe disconcern and irresponsibility after. However the service department has been fairly ok till now.

     

    In Short Excellent as compared to other cars within Rs. 7 lac.
