2012 Chevy Aveo photos leaked - Toyota Yaris Forums

Thirty-Nine · 02-23-2010, 06:32 PM

I think it looks pretty good! I wonder if it'll truly look like this in production or if this is still rather embellished?

It can't get any worse than the current model.

Qmobile · 02-23-2010, 09:56 PM

well it looks a tad bit better than the racer wannabe look that the hatchs have now

Kal-El · 02-23-2010, 11:18 PM

Very nice! GM and Ford continue to impress. Yeah, they gotta drop the name "Aveo" though.

Shroomster · 02-24-2010, 12:56 AM

lmao, this is if Chevy is still in business by then.

SilverBack · 02-24-2010, 02:32 AM

Looks okay. Interior looks better

Aothachos · 02-24-2010, 10:20 AM

looks better, i couldn't get over the small wheels the car had, it looked worse than a mini hot wheels micro car

I like the interior, but overall I like the Ford 2012 Focus better.

Different class of car. The Fiesta is what we should compare it to. The Chevy Cruze is comparable to the Focus.

I haven't read the linked review yet. All of the reports I've read in the past say that the Aveo is one of the worst cars out there (if not the worst). I assume the new one is still made by Daewoo; hopefully the quality of the new one will be vastly improved.

For myself, I will never buy a GM or Chrysler.

Is it because they needed a business loan? For what it's worth, it's a loan being paid back (they've even started ahead of schedule).

I hate the idea of a government loan too but let's not forget that right when a loan was needed, the credit market dried up. A year or two earlier, Ford was able to guarantee private loans before the banking collapse. Ford would've needed the same.

The public seems to think GM and Chrysler got tons of free money so now it's time to boycott them. It's just not true.

Are students who receive federal student loans considered "bailed out" losers?

What sort of a question is that? Are students businesses that rely on consumers buying their product to sustain themselves?

Don't even know what a Chey Cruze is. But I know what you mean, like all the Fit vs. Yaris comments; price and features-wise it should be Fit vs. xD

Simply making an analogy showing that when a loan can't be had in the private sector (as some students don't get the opportunity to get a private loan), the government, I hate to say, may represent a last resort. People say "bailout" but it was simply a loan. One that saved them no doubt but businesses get loans all the time to stay afloat in bad times.

cali yaris · 02-24-2010, 06:28 PM

Chrysler filed Chapter 11 and the government, meaning you and me, now own a fair part of it. That is definitely not a loan. So I'm not sure I understand the argument.

CNN confirming that bailout money won't all be repaid:

fmicle · 02-24-2010, 06:48 PM

The problem that I have with the bailout money is that it distorts the market. GM should have been dead under normal market conditions. So having the government fork over billions of dollars is all but fair to the other businesses that played by the rules.

And it's funny to watch the government (which now owns a big share of GM) turn the heat on Toyota for the sticky pedal recalls. This stinks of conflict of interest to me from a mile away...

I wish they'd quit trying to squeeze the impala into the aveo...

Introducing the 2011 Chevy Cruze...

Replacement for the lackluster Cobalt. A HUGE improvement.

Naturally, like the Fiesta, the Cruze is has already been on sale outside of GM's own country.
