What is the newest Chevy Aveo?

There is no current Chevrolet Aveo on sale. As of 2025, Chevrolet has not revived the Aveo name for a new model in its global lineup.


The Aveo originated from the Daewoo Kalos family and was sold worldwide under the Chevrolet Aveo badge for many years. In the United States, the model was phased out after the early-2010s generation, with Chevrolet and its dealers shifting focus to other small-car options. In various international markets, the Aveo name appeared on different subcompact sedans for a period before being retired. Today, buyers seeking a Chevrolet small car are directed toward other options available in their region.


Current status of the Aveo lineup


Below is a quick snapshot of where the Aveo stands today across markets and time:



  • No active production or new-model release for the Aveo as of 2025.

  • The last U.S.-market Aveo was discontinued after its final generation in the early 2010s; a similar small-car niche was covered by other Chevy models in many markets.

  • In some international markets, the Aveo name appeared on small sedans for a few years before being phased out in favor of newer Chevrolet compact offerings.


In short, the Aveo badge is effectively retired from Chevrolet’s modern lineup. For new-car shopping, consumers typically look at Spark or other regionally available compact models instead.


A quick history of the Aveo


Origins and global rollout


The Aveo has its roots in the Daewoo Kalos, a compact model introduced in the early 2000s. Chevrolet adopted the Aveo name for many markets, presenting a global subcompact option built around Daewoo’s platform and design language.


U.S. and international presence


In the United States, the Aveo was gradually phased out as Chevrolet introduced and expanded other small-car options, with the Sonic and Spark serving nearby roles in different regions. Outside North America, the Aveo name continued to appear on various regional small sedans for several years before the badge was retired in most markets.


What to know if you're researching an Aveo (used car)


Because the Aveo is no longer in production, buyers and researchers should approach with careful diligence and clear expectations:



  • Confirm the market and model year—some late-year Aveos in certain regions are rebadged siblings (such as other GM small cars) and may look similar to original Aveos.

  • Check common wear for aging subcompact platforms, including suspension, brakes, rust in older units, and transmission/engine reliability typical of early- to mid-2000s designs.

  • Review service history and verify VIN details to ensure the vehicle’s badge and lineage match what’s listed for sale.


These checks help ensure you understand what you’re looking at when considering a used Aveo or an equivalent GM compact from that era.


Summary


As of 2025, Chevrolet has not reintroduced the Aveo. The newest Aveo is effectively the model that existed years ago, and the badge remains retired in current catalogs. For modern, low-cost Chevy options, shoppers should consider the Spark or other regionally available compact models, depending on where they are shopping.
