2010 HIGHLIGHTS:
* Horsepower increases to 108 (80.5 kW)
* New exterior color: Wintergreen Metallic
* Rear spoiler now standard on Aveo5 2LT
* Lower numeric fourth and fifth gear ratios on the five-speed manual transmission increase fuel economy by reducing engine rpm at higher speeds

The Aveo lineup also includes a contemporary looking sedan and the Aveo5, a sporty five-door hatchback. All models benefit in 2010 from a slight increase in horsepower; and a new exterior color is available, while features such as OnStar, XM Satellite Radio, the GM Oil Life Monitoring system and standard 15-inch wheels return.
