It didn't take long for the 2009 Chevrolet Aveo5 to make an impact in the compact car market. During July, its first month of release, sales of the hatchback partner to the Aveo increased by nearly a thousand against the same time frame from last year. At first blush, the "whys?" are not hard to figure: The Aveo5 has EPA fuel ratings of 27 mpg/city and 34 mpg/highway and, if you didn't notice, gas prices have been rather high until just lately. Also, the Aveo5 is a true entry-level vehicle with a beginning price of $11,460.
