Aveo RS Concept...

Chevrolet announced the world debut of the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept at the 2010 North American International Auto Show. It features a European-inspired hot hatch look designed to appeal to young enthusiasts, and hints at the next-generation Chevrolet Aveo.
Longer, wider and more spacious than the current production Aveo, the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept showcases the car's upscale-looking design cues both inside and out, and presents the many personalization options potentially available on the next-generation car.

"We hope the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept will demonstrate that we are as serious about redefining the Aveo and its place in the small-car segment as we were about reinventing the Malibu," said Jim Campbell, Chevrolet general manager.

First impressions

The Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept, finished in electric Boracay Blue, wears global Chevrolet design cues such as the dual element grille, round taillamps and fender flares, but designers turned up the attitude on the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept with low openings and a lower mouth trimmed in a combination of brushed and polished aluminum. Outboard fog lamps are integrated into an exaggerated brake-cooling inlet that flows into the front fender flares, creating an aggressive-looking face.

Exposed headlamps, with their brushed aluminum structural surround, are inspired by the designers' affection for motorcycles. The sleek side profile is characterized by uninterrupted body side lines, a high beltline and low roofline. The side mirrors with amber-colored turn signal indicators carry the same shape as the car and seemingly disappear into the profile. At first glance, the car actually looks like a three-door hatch because the rear door handles are discreetly located in the "C"-pillar area.

"The Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept demonstrates how progressive design can inject personality into a small car," said Michael Simcoe, executive director, North American Exterior Design. "We want customers to see it and have an emotional reaction to it."

No performance-minded car earns its street cred without large wheels and tires. The Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept's wheels are 19-inch, five-spoke with a gun metal metallic finish Chevrolet logo. The wheel openings reveal large Boracay Blue brake calipers.

The rear of the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept continues the sport theme, with an integrated spoiler that flows from the roof, a center-mounted exhaust and chrome exhaust tips. The exposed motorcycle-inspired rear taillamps feature tinted aluminum housings and a discreet Bowtie logo.

Spacious and stylish interior

With its matte black interior highlighted by gloss black, metallic and blue accents, the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept reflects as much attention to detail as the exterior. The Boracay Blue theme continues inside, with accent stitching across the dual cockpit instrument panel, front and rear door insert, steering wheel rim, gear shift boot, parking brake, leather seat bolster and even the floor mats. The integrated center stack holds the gearshift, HVAC controls and the sound system, including a USB port. Ice-blue backlighting on the audio display, telltale indicator screen and knobs augments the blue stitching.

The motorcycle inspiration also carries inside, with a round, analog tachometer set within an asymmetrical LCD readout also trimmed in milled metal with round cutouts; and round, aluminum-trimmed side vents.

The interior is as functional as it is stylish, with storage compartments in the center stack and doors. The rear seats fold flat for carrying larger items.

Efficient performer

The Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept is powered by the same highly efficient 138-horsepower (103 kW) 1.4L I-4 Ecotec turbocharged engine that will be available in the upcoming Chevrolet Cruze.

A six-speed manual transmission is designed to ensure the car will provide a spirited driving experience.

For the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept, designers created a special engine cover in graphite silver with a brushed aluminum insert. The coolant and power steering fluid fill caps are rimmed in ice blue, and the honeycomb vents flanking the center of the cover are matte-finished in shadow chrome and designed to match the wheel color.

Chevrolet has previously announced the new Aveo will be built at Orion Assembly in Orion Township, Mich., in 2011, a move that will restore 1,200 jobs to Southeast Michigan. Timing for retooling Orion Assembly for Aveo production is anticipated to begin in late 2010.

You may go to any Rapide Service Center. They have AC Delco and replacement filters for your Aveo.

Oil filter from the Casa is P319.00. Better go to casa for OE filters with this price.

[impak2ako]

*awberdos> thanks... nakabili na ako sa casa ng oil filter...

Hayyy mahal pala mag ka chev mahal ng PM.... pero ok naman ang performance

I don't know if you can read the suggested PMS of the AVEO above. It's a low cost maintenance. You can download and show this to your servicing casa dealer. Here in Pasig, it should be followed

nyok eh dito sa q.ave ang gastos ko noon every 5,000km is mga 5,000-6,000 ang tapos kapag 10,000km umaabot ng 9,000-10,000 tapos nung nag 30,000km ako ang gatos ko umabot ng 13,000. ayun tinapos ko lang ang warranty nya kaya sa gas station na ko ng papachange oil, kung ano ano pinapalitan eh tapos yung tunog sa mga suspension di naman nila nagagawa mawawala lang ng lingo after aweek babalik rin. since nung nabili yung aveo 1year lang yun lumabas yung ngitngit sa harapan kapag dadaan sa humps or even sa mga lubak.... but so far mamahalin ko nalang itong auto namin pinag hirapan namin ito eh... thanks

OT:
Hmmm mahal nga mag pa PMS dyan sa q. ave kaya tatlong beses lang ako nag paservice don then puro out of casa na pms ko for my spark. Baka yung tunog na naririnig mo ay yung sa brake caliper pin at di sa suspension, grease lang katapat non pero yung saken nilagyan ko din ng teflon so far for 6months ok naman at regular kong check yung brakes.

Lufet ng aveo na to, kelan kaya lalabas to sa Philippine market? Yung new spark di pa nilalabas dito sa pinas.

Drive safe!

Mitsubishi should probably be credited for the new Aveo's shark nose styling.
