The Daewoo-based Chevrolet Aveo has been a great sales success for Shanghai-GM so it is time for a new one to sell even more. GM filed for a patent and some pics got out, that’s the way it works these days.

The Aveo got a new sporty front in Cruze-style, bit like that Mitsubishi Lancer front pasted on the Colt but it just can do. New car will hit la market sometime in the first half of next year. Engines: 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6. The new Aveo will make it to the US as well, in 2012.

Current Aveo at a dealer. How very Bristish.
