A look at the new Chevy Aveo

The new Chevrolet Aveo is revamped for another round, this time with a new, bolder design and a more powerful engine to boot.

The value-priced car has recently been unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show. The 2011 version features European styling, a lowered grille and larger, 19-inch (48-centimetre) tires.

With the looks of a three-door hatchback, the new Aveo is actually a  four-door, with hidden rear-handles that keep the design sleek and sporty.

The Aveo stays on the light side with a 138-horsepower, 1.4-litre four-cylinder engine that gets 40 miles per gallon (17 kilometres per litre). Although not super tough, this delivers more than the current 138 horsepower.

We hope to do a hands on review in the coming months.
