As gas prices continue to escalate, subcompact cars are making a huge comeback with American car buyers. To meet the growing demand, the 2008 Chevrolet Aveo offers a variety of interior options, excellent fuel economy, and a bevy of safety features.

Available as a front-wheel drive, 5-passenger Aveo Sedan, it’s available in two trim levels – the basic LS and the well-equipped LT. Both are motivated by a thrifty 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine, delivering peppy acceleration and estimated fuel economy of 24 city/34 highway MPG with the standard 5-speed manual transmission. An optional 4-speed automatic transmission features Hold Control mode to maximize control on hilly or twisting roads by remaining in a lower gear for additional power.

Interior options include available perforated leatherette seating surfaces for additional style and easy cleanup. The standard 60/40 split folding rear seat creates versatility and can handle cargo and passengers with ease. Standard tiltable front head restraints help you find that perfect driving position. Audio options include an in-dash, single-disc CD player with MP3 playback, a six-speaker premium sound system, and auxiliary input jack to accommodate your iPod® for a superior acoustic experience. The available premium power sunroof with tilt and slide feature brings fresh air and sunshine into the cabin.

New, optional 15-inch alloy wheels and available chrome door handles are the only additions for 2008, adding styling flair to the Aveo. Optional foglamps increase nighttime visibility, while an available trunk-mounted spoiler adds a sporty profile to the Aveo’s look. Standard safety features include dual front airbags and seat-mounted side-impact airbags to reduce the risk of injuries in a collision. With the four-speed automatic transmission, the available anti-lock braking system helps to prevent wheel lockup on slippery road conditions. The standard tire pressure monitor displays a warning symbol on the instrument panel if any tires become underinflated.

Fuel efficient, safe, and versatile, the 2008 Chevrolet Aveo is a great sedan for first-time car buyers or small families looking for a lot of value.
