what s wrong with this picture a whole new aveo edition

This is reportedly the new Aveo RS concept coming to the Detroit Auto Show, and apparently a near-production look at the next-generation Aveo. Well, you weren’t expecting it to look worse than the current model, were you?

No thanks. This car is ugly! Just as Peugeot, the purveyor of the big, envoloping headlights and huge, open mouth grilles, go in a new direction, GM comes up w/ this...It's already dated. Look on the internet for Peugeot concept in the Geneva 2010 show. That's the future. This is a (very) tardy throwback.

I thought I heard somewhere that the new Aveo, Opel Corsa and the Daewoo whatever would be sharing architectures. So does that make this car based on a Daewoo, or Opel?

Theflyersfan Having had some as loaners and rentals, and my sister and brother-in-law recently purchasing one, there was one thing left out. VW has to work on the quality of their plastics. Some of the materials feel as bad as 2002-era Nissan (an Altima 3.5SE on a test drive, with 7 miles on it, was already rattling and squeaking) especially on the doors and lower touch points. Some of the ongoing problems i had with my VW dealt with plastic quality - i had the overhead console buttons fall into the housing several times - and there were already squeaks at under 10,000 miles. They are so close with their cars and CUVs. They have designs people like. Just stop with the cheap plastics in so many obvious places. And if you touch the materials that make up the inside of the rear doors, you might be shocked how poor the quality is. Expect cargo to scratch the daylights out of the plastics.
Wjtinfwb CR-V Sport Hybrid or Mazda CX-5 Premium Plus money. I like the VW, just a bit more spirit than the Honda and a touch more room than the Mazda. But if I'm spending my own money the "sure thing" Honda or Mazda will get my checkbook, not a troublesome VW.

Jkross22 The design and marketing people at Ford are doing a great job. When will engineering and QA catch up?
Bkojote For people asking why this over a full-size truck it's simple: Full Size Trucks are terrible off road. They'e too wide, don't articulate well, get stuck on mountain trails, require 20-point-turns, and their suspensions aren't up to the task. Ask any Texan who tries to take their F250 up Yankee Boy Basin. That said, I'm seeing $10k MSRP markups on these at all my local dealers. That's Tacoma Trailhunter territory - which gets 6MPG better, has big-boy ARB equipment, and is going to be bulletproof compared to anything Ford makes.
