Thanks for showing this. Don't get this model over here and I guess that means I should say we're lucky?

It's weird, the Kalos is still sold in America as the Aveo, and this thing is sold in America as the Aveo. They're two completely different cars. We *used* to get an Aveo sedan that was basically a hacked-up Kalos, though.

It's sorta like how Mitsubishi America sold both a coupe based on the Mirage hatchback, and the Lancer sedan in America, and both were badged as a "Mirage", even though they were completely different.

...yet further back, Chevrolet did the most vexxing thing of all, having a sedan and a minivan, that were completely unrelated, and both were badged as "Lumina"... but the minivan had a nice little bit of alphabet-soup placed after that moniker. (...and hell, Chevrolet still uses the Lumina moniker on V8, RWD rebadged Holdens in the Middle East.)

#2, Why do car manufacturers have to be so confusing when naming their cars? I suppose I should just blame GM for being a money hungry, fat, souless corporation who doesn't really care that much for the consumer and just leave it at that

#2, But weirdly, the Colt and Summit sedans were based on Mirages.

#2, Chevy also once sold a badge-engineered version of the Chinese-market Buick Regal as the Chevy Lumina in the Philippines.
