Bangkok--28 Nov--General Motors
The ‘small car, BIG design’, the new AVEO E20 is Chevrolet’s latest compact sedan complete with state-of-the-art exterior and interior design. The AVEO E20 is available as a Standard model, Sport SS model and luxurious LUX model, all equipped with extra-robust accessories, bringing even more benefit for cost-conscious motorists. All AVEO E20 models are configured to run on gasoline, E10 or E20 fuel (20:80 ethanol/gasoline mix), offering motorists both affordability and convenience. Chevrolet Sales (Thailand) Ltd. will officially launch the new Chevrolet AVEO E20 at the 25th Motor Expo at Impact Muangthong Thani from November 28 — December 10 2008.
As well as increased fuel flexibility, AVEO customers can be confident in the performance of this newly configured sedan. Before its release, Chevrolet engineers completely overhauled the fuel system to make it ready for E20 — changing seals, pumps, pipes and gauges to run more efficiently on the new fuel and prevent erosion from the ethanol. These changes will ensure longer-lasting, higher performance for drivers of the Chevrolet AVEO E20.
Chevrolet is pleased to introduce its new AVEO E20 with a range of attractive promotional packages starting at only 500,000 Baht for 1.4 MT BASE to a competitive 679,000 Baht for the top of the range 1.4 AT LUX.
While offering the latest fuel options at an affordable price, Chevrolet has not compromised on comfort. Every new AVEO E20 model comes with European standard Euro-ride Suspension: McPherson Strut front suspension with stabilizer bar and coil springs and torsion beam rear suspension with European Helical Springs and gas-filled shock absorbers, ensuring a smooth ride, effective road-holding and comfortable cornering.
Beneath the hood, the multipoint fuel injection, 4-cylinder, 16 valve, 1.4 litre, 1,399 cc engine generates 94bhp at 6,200 rpm and 130 Nm of torque at 3,400 rpm. Despite it’s ‘city vehicle’ dimensions: length 4,310 mm, width 1,710 mm, height 1,505 mm and wheelbase 2,480 mm, the talented Chevy designers have still managed to maximize cabin size with more than enough room for four people to travel in comfort. The E20 version of Chevrolet AVEO will be available in standard, LS, LSX and LT models as well as a dynamic ‘Sport SS’ version and a desirable, high-end ‘LUX’ model.
