We guess the Aveo was such an awesome little shitbox, Chevrolet feels it, like a champion baseball player, deserves retirement of its name. In its place? The Chevrolet Sonic. When you buy one, do you get a cherry-limeaid slushie? [GMInsideNews] More »

These first images of the 2012 Chevy Aveo show an econobox inspired by the angry Aveo RS concept and designed to make people forget how crappy previous generations of Aveos have been. A photo of the surprisingly attractive interior below. More »

The Chevy Aveo RS show car is a fairly transparent look at the next-generation entry, slotted above the Spark and below the Cruze. It'll begin production in 2011 and go on sale in 2012, albeit with a lot less aggression. More »

The problem with the current Aveo is its crushing mediocrity. But after looking at the Chevy Aveo RS show car earlier today, it's clear this lightly-disguised preview of what's to come is styled much more aggressively than the last one. More »

The 2011 Chevrolet Aveo (or Viva) has to be a more competent econobox than the one it'll replace, able to compete globally against Japanese, Korean and even American competition; Based on these first interior images, it may have a shot. More »

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, never short of tests, put six mini/microcars to the roof strength test. The result? If you have to, you might be better off rolling a Smart Fortwo than flipping an Aveo. More »

We brought you the rumor here first, then we were told it wasn't going to happen, and then back on, but now it's official — Pontiac G3 will be headed to the United States as a 2009 model year five-door hatchback. Yes, folks, GM's decided the Chevy Aveo was just so nice, they couldn't let Chevy have all the fun, now foisting the rebadged Korean econobox onto the brand that was once all about "driving excitement." But that time seems so long ago. Don't get us wrong, we're of the opinion the Chevy Aveo's a very nice little fuel-sipper that's great for the driver who never wants to, you know, enjoy driving. But it saddens us Pontiac's ending up with one of these appliances in the stable. We guess those rumors were true. Still, all those Hummer-GMC-Pontiac dealers are probably going to be pretty happy they'll finally have something other than the G5 ringing in at over 30 MPG to put on the lots. Full details on the new Chevy Aveo the car you CAN ignore 2009 Pontiac G3 after the jump and more deets here as well. More »

It looks like a budding Photoshop artist took the wraps off a 2010 Chevy Lova to arrive at what our next-generation Chevy Aveo could look like. With the exception of a reversed bowtie grille emblem, it's not too bad a job, either. The Malibu-esque fascia would be a fairly straightforward transplant for Chevy and go a long way toward exorcising the "cute 'n dumpy" current look in favor of more modern subcompact style. We didn't see any underhood renders, but we're hoping our submitter 'Shopped in the Chevy Cruze 1.4-liter turbo four, maybe attached to a 6-speed manual and all-wheel drive system. (Thanks Shaun!)

We love seeing spy shots of cars we've never heard of, which is why we were interested in scoping out this Chinese-market Chevy Lova. As you can see for yourself, though, it didn't take much sleuthing to identify the lines as those of the Chevy Aveo, but not exactly the one we're familiar with. The Lova has a Malibu-esque front end and tail treatment, while the interior is significantly upgraded over the current US Aveo (and Chinese Lova). We've already gotten some idea of what the LA-bound 2009 Aveo5 will bring us, so is this car destined to be the 2010 Chevy Aveo?

Former Jalopnik intern Eric Tingwall over at that magazine all about the Automobile has put together a small-car fuel economy comparison to finally settle the question of whether a compact hybrid like the Prius is actually a less-expensive alternative to non-hybrid compacts. As Tingwall mentions, the real equation is a lot more complex than just "purchase price plus fuel cost," involving insurance, maintenance and the real kicker: depreciation. We're not going to give away the results, but we will say Prius owners' smugness isn't entirely unjustified. [Automobile] More »

We know you were all scrambling for a badge-engineered version of the Chevy Aveo, but Edmunds is reporting that GM has denied the US and its Pontiac dealers a chance at the Pontiac G3 Wave. Rumors surfaced earlier this summer pointing to the possibility of the little Mexican-built, Korean-engineered, Pontiac-badged micro-machine coming to domestic shores. Unfortunately, Pontiac spokesman Jim Hopson shot down all of our hopes and dreams by saying, "Right now, we don't have that vehicle approved for U.S. consumption." Dang. Why does the rest of the world get all of the good cars? [Edmunds Inside Line] More »

Chevy's UK arm commissioned this one-of-a-kind billboard made out of 20,000 one-pence coins (about $400). Though the Chevy Aveo's selling better stateside as of late due to the price-per-gallon of gas, it's become a little more popular in Europe thanks to billboards like this one as well as its Citroen destroying capabilities and giving them away to beauty pageant winners. But back to the ad at hand, how long did this clever billboard last? More »

Whether it's a C4 on top of a parking garage, the same C4 showing off a penchant for ice-skating or a Chinese man just looking to score with the ladies, Citroens like to transform. In fact, so much so they've already been made fun of once before in a faux ad for the 2CV. But now another automaker's getting into the act in a new ad from the brand all about the 'merican revolution in a commercial for the new Kalos-replacing five-door hatchback Aveo econo-box. That's right, Chevy — the very last brand you'd ever expect to be knocking a badge for advertising their love of cars that transform into robots. We're guessing someone at Chevy's ad agency may have forgotten Chevys like to transform too — heck, they even have a toy version of the Aveo named "Swerve." Talk about the heights of hypocrisy. Unless Chevy's just making fun of Citroens for dancing. [via YouTube] More »

There's a new Chevrolet Aveo hatchback for Europe and as we've already shown you, it's got a new front face with a gaping wide mouth. Still has the same great storage space and fuel economy it's always had and hey, now you can get an auto tranny on this as of now European only model. (Yes, we know a Aveo hatch exists in the US, but it doesn't have anywhere near as great of an overbite — yet) We'll actually read the press release when we've had a moment to breathe, but for the moment check it out yourself after the jump.
