  Chevrolet News | Chevrolet Matiz 0.8 SE automatic
The new Matiz, which was launched in June 2005, is already one of the most manoeuvrable cars on the road today and the automatic transmission adds a further dimension to the car’s ease of use.
Matiz is perfectly suited to an urban environment with its compact dimensions (length x width x height: 3,495 x 1,500 x 1,495 mm) and with its small turning circle of 9.20 m, the five-door Chevrolet Matiz fits into any parking space.
The Matiz 0.8SE automatic has a four-speed auto transmission and is only available with the thoroughly updated 796 cc three-cylinder engine with 51.5 PS/50 BHP and a maximum torque of 71.5 Nm at 4,400 rpm.

 Daewoo Matiz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Daewoo Matiz is a city car made by GM Daewoo (in Poland by FSO, and in Pakistan by Nexus Automotive).
This new 2005 Chevrolet Matiz did not score well in the Euro NCAP crash test, being awarded three stars with one being struck out: "The final adult occupant protection star is struck through because there was an unacceptably high risk of life-threatening injury to the chest in side impact."
Some Daewoo Matiz owners in the UK have taken to flashing their lights and beeping their horns at each other as they pass, in much the same way as VW Beetle owners did in the 1960s.

 Matiz - The new Matiz - Chevrolet UK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Stylish, easy to manoeuvre and packed with useful features: the Chevrolet Matiz is one of the most exciting small cars around.
The Matiz is simple to park, making it an ideal city car.
For a 5 door car, the Matiz is also outstanding value – especially when you take into account the useful extras like airbags and handy storage spaces.

 New Chevrolet Matiz - AmericanCarFans.com
The new Chevrolet Matiz is just 3.50 metres long and thus ideal for urban and short-distance traffic, although it is equally capable of longer journeys in comfort.
Alongside the bold new bumper design and large air intake, the front of the new 2005 Matiz is dominated by the striking new round headlamps with large lens effect.
The 1.0-litre four-cylinder Matiz naturally is faster and has a top speed of 156 km/h and a sprint time of 14.1 sec.

 DRIVE TIMES: Magic of Matiz - Evening Times   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The Matiz is the one mass-market model the company has in its portfolio, accounting for 10% of city cars sold across the continent.
The new Matiz isn't a complete fresh start, but it is different enough to merit a fresh appraisal.
The four-cylinder 1.0-litre SE and SX Matiz models are smoother and cope better with hills, but the smaller engine is more endearing with its slight suggestion of a rasp.

 April 2005
The new 2005 Chevrolet Matiz follows in the footsteps of its previous trendsetting and ground braking incarnation.
For 2005, Matiz takes a giant leap forward in many areas crucial to this sector’s audience with an essential point in the brief being to retain the overall size of the car and not to be caught up in the general trend to upsizing – this is urban transport after all.
Chevrolet has recognised that not only should the car retain its overall dimensions, as its compact nature really matters in a mini-car, but that it should retain its personality too.

 Peugeot 107 and Chevrolet Matiz --- MotorBar Road Test
You may remember that Chevrolet is the badge that now adorns the Korean-built Daewoo brand.
An automatic transmission option for the three-cylinder Matiz variant will be available at the end of the year, and will add £900 to the cheapest model in the range.
This car might be thought of as chic and appeal to young first time buyers as it's a Chevrolet, but with its good warranty and service package it represents real value for money and I see the Matiz appealing to older buyers canny enough to know a 'good deal' when they see it.

 RTÉ Motors
The Chevrolet Matiz starts at a very reasonable €10,995 and is available as a.8 litre (51bhp/three-cylinder) or a 1 litre (65bhp/four-cylinder) that is expected to be the volume seller.
Before the name change from Daewoo to Chevrolet the old Matiz was a favourite town car of mine.
The Matiz can hold its own at motorway speeds too, but the car's high profile has a definite downside when hit by crosswinds at speed.

The new version of one of the most popular small cars on our roads is ready for the off: From early June, the new Matiz will premiere in the show rooms of the Chevrolet deal-ers.
Alongside the massive bumpers and large air intake, the front of the new 2005 Matiz is also dominated by the striking round headlamps.
In the driver's direct area of view, we have the control and warning light unit, and strikingly positioned at the centre of the dashboard and easily visible to all Matiz passengers are the gauges.

Chevrolet have forged a reputation in the US for bringing quality cars to market at affordable prices, so it's not such a great stretch to apply those brand values here in the UK.
The problem is that demand for genuine 'econobasic' city cars as represented by the original Matiz has largely dried up.
Chevrolet have set out with the philosophy that comfort and ease of entry are priorities.

 New Chevrolet Matiz
The new Matiz goes on sale in the UK on June 18, and Chevrolet claims that at that point it will become perhaps the cheapest car in the country to run, at least in 0.8-litre S form.
On-the-road price for the S is £6095, and further low-cost benefits include Group 1 insurance, the lowest vehicle excise duty rating at £105 per year, three years' free servicing and an extra-urban fuel economy figure of 67mpg.
Chevrolet is also quoting insurance costs as supplied by the AA.

 Chevrolet Matiz 1.0 SE
So there I was, cruising around the mean streets in my Chevvy, some cool music on the CD and the distinctive Chevrolet cross on the brushed steel keyring glistening in the golden sunset.
I was in Glasgow, the next thunderstorm was about to start chucking it down and the Chevvy was a pale blue pint-sized Matiz wearing its new Chevrolet coat after General Motors cast off its old Daewoo one.
The old name may have gone, but the car is basically the same - and I'd forgotten just how small it is. Actually, rather than small, it's more narrow, as though at some point in the design stage it was put into a vice and gently squeezed.

The Matiz comes with an 800cc or 1000cc 3 cylinder engine with 5 speed manual gearbox.
The 800cc version generates a very impressive 51bhp and is capable of cruising at 120kph with a top speed of 140kph (approx’ 75mph/90mph) but is still very economical to drive.
The Matiz is designed for city and urban driving and economy rather than high performance, but it is still very nimble and provides a good performance for such a small vehicle.

After a rather strong showing at the Paris Motor Show, Chevrolet has finally taken the wraps off at the production of the new Matiz--and it doesn't look that good.
Chevrolet, or should it be said, Daewoo, has rectified this by giving the new Matiz owners a choice between a 800 cc or 1000 cc (1.0-liter) engine.
Details on the Matiz's final specifications are still unknown, but rest assured, it should give second hand cars a good run for their money.

The Chevrolet has a noisy engine, sounds like a diesel taxi, the gearbox is clumsy and noisy, it has a useless CD/radio, the driving position is poor, and the clutch pedal travel is poor.
I have 750 miles on the counter (there's no real odometer, just a silly LCD display), fuel consumption is very poor and there's a lack of power.
I looked at buying a Kia Picanto or a Matiz, the Matiz car seems better on build quality (to me, the Picanto looks and feels cheap) and it won on the test drive.

The announcement of General Motors to acquire the car assembly plant of Daewoo Motors in India has revived the hope of the relaunch of Daewoo's compact car Matiz as Chevrolet Spark by General Motors.

 Green Car Congress: GMs Matiz/Spark Mini-Car Racking Up Market Share in Europe and China
The new third-generation Chevrolet Matiz/Spark minicar, manufactured by GM Daewoo in Korea and introduced earlier in the year, is proving to be a solid hit in its global markets.
Some 7,300 units of the car sold in May and June alone in Europe, and by the end of the year, Chevrolet expects to have sold 40,000 of them there.
(At that level, the Matiz would represent about 15%–17% of total Chevy Europe sales this year.) In China, sales of the Matiz/Spark have quadrupled in the first half of the year to 12,612.

GM says this is because it want to globalize Chevrolet as a bargain-brand leader.

Sponsor of Celebrity Love Island and Chevrolet’s smallest car, the Matiz puts its gloves on against the Panda, the Picanto, the Charade and the newly born Czech triplets C1, 107 and Aygo.
There are three lap and diagonal seatbelts in the back and while three across is a squash for adults, it isn’t for kids, which makes the Matiz excellent transport for the school run.
Compared to the C1/107/Aygo the Matiz is a surprising four inches longer, but five inches narrower, which gives it quite a lot more bootspace and makes it easier to park.
