Hi all, nice to meet you from a sonic/aveo italian owner. I use the car not so much but i love american cars and sedans (here in italy sedans are not much beloved, due to dimensions/practibality and for the price, generally high) so, since the sedan in italy has only an 1.2 petrol an a 1.3 diesel 75 cv (whit damned FAP of all diesel engine) i have chose for the poor 1.2 petrol. 86 hp. 115 nm of torque (4000 rpm). for you, cowboys, a similar engine will be a joke but here it so
And, not enough, for this poor engine probably I pay more in tax and ensurance than you with 140 hp under the ass in usa! (150 euros for car tax and 500 for insurance...)
despite the ridiculus underpower engine (I have so much pshycological complex of this while I talk whit americans off course...you can call it "small dick sindrome"
), despite the 13,5 seconds that i need for reach 100 km/h (with favorable wind) I think that I love my first chevy, its beautiful, its white, its a sedan, its american (not for the power ok) it has 4 wheels and a good interiors and handling. And 500 liters of trunk capacity.
Fuel economy of the 1.2 petrol is similar of 1.4 turbo i think: 7.1 liters every 100 kilometers in the city.
merry christmas to all
paolo
