I don't understand the popularity of the Aveo either. I drove a rental car Aveo last May for a couple days and I'd rather have driven my 13 year old Chevy Cavalier I had at the time. The Aveo with A/T had horrible gas mileage too.
I can't understand why anyone would choose an Aveo over a Yaris. |

In my region they had a $2,500 cash back on the Aveo.

What's the advantage of cash back?

I'm surprised the Fiesta is still only at about 3,000 units. I assume it's still because of low inventory levels but Ford's gotta be catching up soon. I still barely see any on Ford lots.
I fully expect the Fiesta to approach Versa sales levels. It's clearly the best car in many ways in its class. |

I also rented an Aveo and was amazed at how crappy it was. Felt like the tin can that it is and yet sucked gas. I got only about 27 MPG in the same conditions as I get 38 MPG in my bigger, heavier, and more powerful Yaris.

I remember a while ago, GM dealers around here had a deal where if you bought a truck, you'd get the Aveo for free.

Yeah, I got 25 MPG with the Aveo on the highway, when I should have rented a Nissan Altima, my dream car, and I would have got 34 MPG.

Fiesta may also be selling slow because they start at about 15,500 for a hatch. I saw a loaded one at a dealer for almost 20,000. As much as I like the Fiesta, it is a little cramped. Given the choice, I'd still go Yaris.
