Chevrolet will show this new baby SUV called the Trax at the 2012 Paris motor show, before UK sales start in spring 2013. If that name sounds familiar, it's because Chevrolet showed a concept car called Trax at the New York auto show in 2007. That's the show car depicted in our second image (only one pic of the actual 2012 Trax has ...

Chevrolet's press conference at the 2012 North American International Auto Show was all about youngsters: namely the millennials, or 11-30-year-olds who hold increasing consumer power. GM reckons there are 80 million of them in the US, and they account for $1 trillion of spending power. So it's worth taking them seriously. Such digital youngsters are very collaborative, according to Chevrolet ...

One of GM's numerous debuts at the 2011 Detroit auto show was this: the Chevrolet Sonic. Shown as a hatchback and four-door notchback, it's one of The General's weapons to tackle the now-globalised Ford Fiesta and its ilk. Looks like the Euro-spec Aveo... Good spot. That's because this is the US-spec Aveo - albeit shown in US-only notchback form as well as the more ...

Chevrolet is planning to double European sales inside five years - and the new Orlando MPV and ground-breaking Chevrolet Volt are just two examples of how GM's budget brand plans to reach new customers. We often hear how up-and-coming brands hope to perform sales miracles, and the harsh truth is there's not the space for all of them to be ...

Chevrolet has shown its new Camaro Convertible ahead of the Los Angeles auto show tomorrow. No great shakes: it takes the stylish coupe and chops the top. There's a 308bhp V6 or the 420bhp V8, and prices kick off around $30,000. If only UK prices transferred over like that; it would cost £19,000, but we somehow don't think that'll happen ...

Chevrolet showed off its new go-faster rollerskate, the Chevy Aveo RS concept, at the 2010 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). It's not that far-flung a show car, being based on the regular or garden Aveo – but pumped up with a sporty 1.4-litre turbocharged engine. As transplants go, this is the future of performance cars even in the US, ...
