Shanghai GM introduced a new sedan, Chevrolet Sail, the first passenger sedan created in China by a Sino-foreign joint venture. The new small car was developed by Shanghai GM and the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC), both GM-SAIC joint ventures. In addition to being sold in China, the new Chevy Sail will also be exported to other emerging markets.

Shanghai GM offers five variants of the Chevrolet Sail with the base model priced around RMB 60,000 (US$8,800). This marks a breakthrough in the under-RMB 70,000 (US$10,300) small car segment, where Chinese brands have traditionally been dominant.

Chevrolet introduced the world debut of the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept at the 2010 North American International Auto Show. It sports a European-inspired hot hatch look designed to appeal to young enthusiasts, and hints at the next-generation Chevrolet Aveo.
Longer, wider and more spacious than the current production Aveo, the Chevrolet Aveo RS Concept showcases the car’s upscale-looking design cues both inside and out, and presents the many personalization options potentially available on the next-generation car.
