I like the practicallity, the reliability still have the original battery in car from new. Breaks lasted to 130,000 kms. Cheap maintenance cost. In my opinion its one of the most under rated cars out there,. I'm looking for another one when this one finally dies. Regarding its power output, I removed the stock air box and installed a K&N style air filter. Simple mod added 5 hp and made it noticeably more responsive as well as decreased rpm at idle.Dec 01, 2012

buen performance, buenos frenos, comodo al manejar, look agradable a la
vista, muy consumidor de gasolina para su pequeño motor, el que hay que exigir
en algunas ocasiones para que responda como es, pero asi mismo da su fuerza
para seguir, muy bien equipado. Oct 16, 2012

This car is way better in performance as compared to Honda & Toyota . Safe and
reliable . The one thing I love about Chevy's .... Optimum Safety .... Exterior is
very classy and interior is sophisticated . If modified , this car has the capability to
be a pretty good sports car .

Had my 05/optra wagon for 1 yr. now and still love it. Not the best on gas, but the best little wagon out there. Looks great, handles great, goes o.k. Need more power?...You need more brains!!! No wagon is truley a sports car and should never be reviewed like one. Oh yah, sure it had more torque, but my mothers old boat 77 plymouth wagon only had 77 horsepower. Mar 13, 2010

Performance: Tres mauvaise accélération
Tenue de route: Excellente, suspension au 4 roues surprenant pour une voiture de se prix.
Qualité de construction: Pourri, le véhicule a du passer au moins 1 mois en garage en 4 ans. Consommation élevé, chaffage qui fournissait pas. J'en passe...Feb 28, 2010

optra has a 1.8 litre engine with quite much torque . though it is undermined by it's dull exteriors. mileage is not too good though but it's really fun to drive .not ignoring the comfort inside ,it's spacious too.also , it's got a strong chassisNov 06, 2009

good acceleration. very good breaking system. good response. good handling. a not bad-interior design. a not bad exterior design. nice leather seats but slippery :D over all. a fun car to drive. but in the end, if u have the money, go for BMW :D i know! i'm a betrayer!Oct 26, 2009

Good Acceleration, Poor Braking, Good Handling
It needs alot of repair, specially if you dont take care of it.
Appearance is good on th eoutside, but needs iprovement from the inside.
High cost of gas mileage and maintenance.
It is fun to drive :)Aug 11, 2009

For a 1.6 liter of a car, it was a gas guzzler. Power-to-weight ratio was leaning more on ride stability than fuel economy.
Handling was okay although acceleration needed more pushing. Styling looks more conservative, quite sedate for younger people.Aug 11, 2009

we've had the car now fo ronly a few days but we love it! lots of room on the inside. fully loaded. still getting the feel of the car but its something that we need. carseats fit nicely in the back power sunroof, ps, pw, pdl, hold option for starting from a standstill to moving uphill. this pic shows a little body kit that really looks good, not overdone. that and ours is green and has better aluminum rims. great car.

Not really a Chevy, it's built by Daewoo in Korea. Had the car for three years and no problems except a battery (left dead in the showroom for too long) and the CD player. While the acceleration is poor, the handling and braking are amazing thanks to all wheel disc brakes and fully independent suspension. It's roomy in spite of its small exterior dimensions (I am 6' 2", 200lbs) and has good ergonomicsMar 15, 2008
