| Road Test |
The 2009 Chevrolet Aveo is one of the least expensive vehicles you can buy in the United States. It’s a front-wheel-drive subcompact that’s available in two body styles; the Aveo sedan and the new-for-2009 Aveo5 hatchback. With the specter of high gas prices looming over American drivers, the efficient and generally competent 2009 Chevy Aveo should be among the small cars on anyone’s shopping list.
