2009 Chevrolet Aveo Overview
In challenging economic times, it is comforting to know that there are still cars on the market that are affordable, reliable and fun. The 2009 Chevy Aveo is the perfect candidate when looking for a blend of great fuel efficiency and even better dollar efficiency.
Available in four-door sedan or five- door hatchback (the Aveo 5) body types, the Aveo has three trims to choose from. Each trim comes with a 1.6-liter engine that can generate 107-horsepower. New for 2009, Chevy introduces variable value timing which can pump up the vehicle's might. All trims also come with a five-speed manual transmission with overdrive and front wheel drive.
The base LS trim includes with front bucket seats and a radio. Upgrade to the 1LT trim and get all the perks of the standard model but a CD-player and air-conditioning also come standard. The top of the model line, 2LT, includes all of the above and a host of power features, including power windows, door locks and mirrors (also heated). A satellite radio unit and year subscription, fog lamps, cruise control and remote keyless entry system also come standard in the premium trim.
The Chevy Aveo is not only an excellent deal in its class; it is an excellent overall bargain. Compared to its competitors the Toyota Yaris and the Hyundai Accent, the Aveo gets comparable gas mileage (26 MPG in the city and 34 MPG on the freeway) at thousands less.
The Aveo is one of the few subcompact vehicles with a five star NHTSA safety rating for the driver's side (four stars for the passenger's side). A breadth of safety features is included on this low-cost gem. Each trim comes with front impact airbags for both passenger and driver and an anti-roll bar. The 1LT and 2LT trims come with four-wheel anti-lock brakes.
The 2009 Chevy Aveo is a solid and efficient friend in difficult times. If you are scaling back, consider the base model which is one the most affordable cars on the market. If looking for extra bells and whistles add a sunroof or an automatic transmission to the 2LT model. Either way, the Aveo is an excellent value for a less than excellent marketplace.
