With that said, I can't say I disagree with your assesment. I test drove both the Aveo and the Cobalt when I got my car...and for some of the reasons above (apart from me not fitting in it) obviously we know how that turned out. (Frankly...the Cobalt gets the same mpg, and is bigger...wtf do we need an Aveo like the current one for?)

I just wonder what could be said of other competing vehicles. Whether they'd be much better then that or not.I think the next one should be MUCH better. 40+mpg? And GM knows they've got to succeed in the subcompact market....
Nope didnt have a choice (it was only $158.00 for the rental for 10 days, not going to find a better deal here).

And yes my wife and I were thinking the same thing, how do other cars in the same class stack up. I may never know, but it was a wake up type of experience especially since I've sat in a cobalt and liked the stuff that I HATED in the aveo, it just makes you wonder...
