what s wrong with this picture no way that s an aveo edition

Kicking Tires calls these “the first official photos of the production version” of the next-generation Chevrolet Aveo. They show a subcompact that’s definitely less showcar-ish than the Aveo RS concept from NAIAS, but is still in the computer-generated “uncanny valley” between the realistic and real. Or maybe I’m just getting used to the idea of a halfway-appealing Aveo.

I kinda like it but I do have one comment to make: Digital speedos SUCK!!! Digital should be used only for displaying measurements that don't change by 1-2 all the time. Like the time, the temperature, range to empty, etc. When used to display quantities that often fluctuate by a few, they are always winking and changing but not really giving you any useful information for all that distracting activity.

@xyzzy: As the former owner of a long-gone Pontiac '87 6000STE, I agree completely about digital instruments. While I loved that car's handling and balance, the dashboard was a nightmare. When the circuits started failing, the repair bills were horrendous. I sold it for $3,500 with 67K miles and counted myself lucky. Don't do this, GM!

MaintenanceCosts We need cheaper batteries. This is a difficult proposition at $50k base/$60k as tested but would be pretty compelling at $40k base/$50k as tested.
Scott ?Wonder what Toyota will be using when they enter the market?
Fred The bigger issue is what happens to the other systems as demand dwindles? Will thet convert or will they just just shut down?
Roger hopkins Why do they all have to be 4 door??? Why not a "cab & a half" and a bit longer box. This is just another station wagon of the 21st century. Maybe they should put fake woodgrain on the side lol...
Greg Add me to the list: 2017 Sorento EX AWD w/2.0 Turbo GDI 68K miles. Changed oil religiously with only synthetic. Checked oil level before a rare long road trip and Ievel was at least 2 quarts down. That was less than 6 months after the last oil change. I'm now adding a quart of oil every 1000 miles and checking every 500 miles because I read reports that the oil usage gets worse. Too bad, really like the 2023 Tuscon. But I have not seen Hyundai/Kia doing anything new in terms of engine development. Therefore, I have to suspect that I will ony become a victim of a fatally flawed engine development program if I were to a purchase another Kia/Hyundai.
