Sneak Peek
The 2009 Chevrolet Aveo lineup gets slightly more power and a restyled hatchback model. Chevrolet's smallest car comes as a 4-door sedan or a 4-door hatchback called the Aveo5. Sedans and Aveo5 offer LS, 1LT, and 2LT trim levels. All have a 106-hp 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine, an increase of 3 hp from 2008. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard, and a 4-speed automatic is optional. Available safety equipment includes ABS and front-side airbags. Other available features include satellite radio, air conditioning, sunroof, power windows and door locks, remote entry, heated side view mirrors, and cruise control. GM's OnStar assistance is newly standard on all models. We have not yet tested the 2009 Aveo.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) tests a vehicle's
worthiness in front- and side-impact collisions and rates its resistance to
rollovers. Front-impact crash-test numbers indicate the chance of serious injury:
5 = 10% or less; 4 = 10-20%; 3 = 20-35%; 2 = 35-45%; 1 = More than 45%. Side-impact
crash-test numbers indicate: 5 = 5% or less; 4 = 6-10%; 3 = 11-20%; 2 = 21-25%;
1 = More than 26%. Rollover resistance numbers indicate the chance for rollover
when the vehicle leaves the roadway: 5 = Less than 10%; 4 = 10-20%; 3 = 20-30%;
2 = 30-40%; 1 = More than 40%.
