The amazing price of the Chevy Cobalt

By James Conaller

Being manufactured and sold in the US, the Chevy Cobalt impresses many with its stunning price tag. The Chevy Cobalt is available in four versions, all having the choice between a sedan and a coupe. The price tag of these cars don't go higher than $13,000, making it one of the most affordable cars in its section.

Being a car with a really sporty look, both this and the price tag convince buyers to have a preference for the Chevy Cobalt. It is not common that such a small car has such a slick look.

Produced in the US, the Chevy Cobalt, which is available for less than $13,000, is one of Chevrolet's cars with the lowest price tag. Only the Aveo has a lower price than the Chevy Cobalt. But in contrary to the Chevy Cobalt, the Aveo is not manufactured in the United States.

The Honda Civic, the Volkswagen Jetta, the Toyota Corolla and the Ford Focus are the main competition for the Chevy Cobalt. All of them are manufactured in the US and have a similarity to the Chevy Cobalt in terms of price and features.

Most of the features that come with the Chevy Cobalt are akin to those that are available with higher-end cars. The car is an improvement of Chevrolets own Cavalier which did not meet with good reviews when it was launched. Probably, the low price of the Chevy Cobalt and the inclusion of several new and improved features in the Chevy Cobalt is a bid to undo some of the damage that the Cavalier caused. In any case, the Cobalt has a much better appearance than the cavalier, gives a much smoother ride and provides very sensitive controlling of the vehicle.

Several security features are installed within the car, such as anti lock braking, electronic controls, remote operations, etc. One would not expect most of these features in a small car that has been priced so low.

The Chevy Cobalt is available in four versions, all available in coupe and sedan format. This is something that will come in handy if you were to purchase a Chevy Cobalt. The coupe comes in different models known as the base, the LS, the SS, and the SS Supercharged. The SS Supercharged is not available in sedan format, but Chevrolet compensated this with the LT version of the Sedan. Out of all the versions, the SS and the SS Supercharged are the ones who are reviewed as the best.

If you were to look for a family car with a sporty look an great features, you should look no further than the SS Supercharged. It is the fastest car of all Chevy Cobalt models and the costs are low. - 21396
