2010 Daewoo Matiz

By  •  Published:  •  Last updated:






This is the Korean market version of our upcoming Chevrolet Spark, a “smaller than Aveo” model.
The grille is the main difference, otherwise, it looks pretty much the same to me.

I know many people already hate this car, but I don’t. At least it looks modern and different. At least they are trying something new by using their worldwide resources. Remember, this is cheaper than the $12 000 Aveo.

Hope it works for them.

  2. So this will come over here and they will slap a Chevrolet badge on it. More rebadging.
    If i wanted to buy a korean car i would buy something decent like a Hyundai or a Kia and not be fooled into what many people would think that buying Chevrolet would mean buying a good old american product.

  3. …not be fooled into what many people would think that buying Chevrolet would mean buying a good old american product.

    Which "good old american [sic] product?"

  4. Many people hate this car? Why? I think it is a fantastic design; I've said it before and I'll say it again: one of the best looking cars in its segment. And now that I get to see the interior, it looks really cool too

    Perfect.

    Daewoo is 2nd rate and I wouldn't buy one.

  10. I am waiting for an inexpensive yet reliable little hatch type vehicle for my daily running around and hauling a few things from time to time. I really want a Honda Fit but am waiting to check out the Ford Fiesta and C-Max and will take a look at this now as well. I like the styling personally.

  12. Living in West LA with a short commute this is the perfect grocery shopping quick commuting car. If priced right it could work. I'll be in the market for a new car in a year. I'm so ready to downsize as I moved closer to work and really am done with trips to Ikea.

  13. I like it since I first saw it in the Transformer movie franchise. I might get this Chevy Spark over the Yaris coupe, the Smart and maybe even the iQ if it ever come to America

  14. Last time I checked, Daewoo isn't offered in the US anymore or anywhere else. I don't understand why this form of rebadging is unacceptable for some when this vehicle was created by GM for all markets. Oh right…. because GM did it.

  16. Cheap and Ugly….kinda like the little Su-BAR-ru! Wow!

    Anyway, this thing is a bit tall and narrow to really flog, but this market still needs this.
