The ingenuineness of this review appears doubtful. Justify your opinion.
I feel this review is:
My dad had bought this car when it was launched. The good thing about this car is it has very comfortable seating facility with ample of leg room, and suspension is very good, there is almost no jerks even on uneven road. This car is very comfortable to travel and driving experience is also smooth. Regarding the look and appeal it looks elegant and cool.
The disadvantages are -
1) Its very expensive car to maintain. The servicing cost is very expensive.
2) Mileage is not at all good. The mileage is 7kms per litre and decreases in long run to 5kms per litre.
3) Its a delicate car and most of its parts gets choked or stops functioning with time and the parts are not easily available in service centers and it takes lots of time for them to arrange the parts, on top of that again its highly expensive.
4) Our car is 5 years old and traveled only 58k kms when trying to resale the market is asking it for 1 lakh rupees only.
5) At the end we cannot even sell it nor afford to drive it with ease. It like a liablity.
Stay away from this car forever.

Good morning,
Where can I start, the engine is so good I am about 9000km away from 300 000Km. every day when I get in this car it feels like the Mercedes. I had to put a new exhaust on as the water that comes out at the exhaust as rusted it. and put a new 57mm exhaust on and made it lighter on petrol.
Now my car in give me on the open road between 14 and 15 KM's per litre.
Again my parents love my car as they are driving an SUV 4 x 4, if they want to go friends they will ask me if they can drive with my car, as my dad said for the size of my car with the performance for a 1.6. is so good.
yes Chevrolet is done is SA, put opel and chev uses the same engines.
and one thing if you look after your vehicle doing services every 15000km check the water the oil and the small things your vehicle will not give any problems.
Like my dad got the Hyandai accent in 1999 when it just got to SA, we sold the vehicle as we were in a accident and the vehicle had 630000km on as we did service it every 15000km. And again about the chev I am not disappointed with the vehicle
Hii guys! I am HSB and today I will share my review about my old car chevrolet optra 2004 model.
Chevrolet is a company which are making cars for a very long time and they started selling cars in 80's.
Chevrolet optra has worst resail value , unsatisfactory service and many other cons.
So lets talk about it.
2.value for money- It was expensive as I buy it for 10 lakhs and is not a value for money car.
3.Resail value - I sold this car for only 2.5 lakhs only after its 4 years of usage. That was the pathetic deal.
On the whole it is definately a below average car and one should buy only if available in second hand cars and also for 2 lakhs.
Thanx for reading my review I hope this review will help you.

YOUR RATING ON
Optra has one of the best sedan car of this segment now company though has discontinued this model but yet this model is very favourtes of people.
First talk about its exterior has good design and body of car too solid.rear grills used in the front side of this car makes the car very attractive.and the ground clearnce of this car too very good
Now come to its interior the beige color intrior give you the royal look and it very spacious though and the most important ac of this car is very awesome.gearbox packed with leather stripping which too very impressive.and many sensors that gives so comfort and alerted you when ever you need it.with airbag like facility you can feel safe while driving this car.
Now if we talk about the engine performance then its pretty good does not produce any noise while starting it.
Yaah mileage of this car is not very good but if you getting royal feature then you can compromise with price.
Chevrolet Optra is a car which is available around rupees 5 lacs in past days because this car is not available now you even doesn't find this car on the market this car is only available on second hand condition the engine power of this car is quiet ok but the design of this car is not so good enough and the mileage of this car is also not good this car gives you around 15 to 16 kmpl only on highways the material which this cars interior is made up of is so poor quality I thought that even Tata Nano is much more better than this car
Chevrolet Optra is average product not one of the best in the market. There are some of the problems. The outer look and outside appearance of the car is better but when it comes to the inner look or decoration the car absolutely fails. There is no proper interior design inside the car. And also with improper comfort zone. There is no proper backside storage of the car. It is hard to carry some personal belongings like bags, books and electronic things and others etc. due to less space and little storage. And seats are not luxuries. The staring is not so flexible it is not manual and smooth. The garing system is also little hard.
It does not have so much of comfort and even there is a less option chances for this car as it does not have any more number of choices as other companies do and even it does not give that comfort level which now a days normal car provides at great extent . comfort level is a very important aspects when it comes to car transport.
Excellent driving exp. -
absolutely for extra long drive to far off places.
magnificence look - look and elegance is beautiful, some assume its a bit out dated, comfort and excellent , long drive or short town drives, great, car in pickup . the most effective a part of the car is its ability to provide the amount of power and mileage roughly round 9 - 10 in twon and around 16 - 18 on long drive assume . best option worth for cash, leg room, desiel motor, needs to improve could also be the design . overall expertise fantastic and extremely happy
My freind avinadh has this car, its the most economical vehicle if you by second hand, lemme say cheapest in the market. Only people who buys this coz they want to have a car of their own rest they know anything about cars and no class either. The best price in sevond hand you get this is for 125000 and if you can bargain a lakh should ve enough. Good side- it works, runs on roads has got a horn. Downside- which had better engine which wont misfire, steering wherl could've been soft like dough, break accelerator peddaling experience could improve and suspensions were soft but after all its GM product. So for a lakh thats what you get. Unlike in programming WYSIWYG ( what you see is what you get)
It is one of the popular brand in the world. general motors cars are know for their rugged handling and heavy utilities.
vehicle leg room is very spacious and engine capacity is good in this price segment.
fuel consumption is ok compare to other vehicles.
driving quality is excellent for indian roads.
service quality is not good compare to other car dealer ship. spare parts are not available most of the time.
Chevrolet Optra Magnum is my only car since lastone year. First of all I want to tell you that why Ibought this car. first reason was that its interiorshas been designed with some of the best interiordesigning technologies and thats why it gives anamazing look to passengers. Main thing is its Dashboard which is awesomely designed and has beenmade informative. The Chevrolet Optra Magnummodel is coming in two type of engines One is 1. 6 Ltand second is 2. 0 Lt. The 1. 6 It engine is coming inpetrol variant and the 2. 0 It engine is coming indiesel variant. Space inside the car is very large and three persons can easily sit on back seat. Engine is powerful and mileage is not too good but average.Best thing about this model is its design which makeChevrolet Optra Magnum best designed modelamong other available cars in india.
Actually I love this car.
It is having a good interior along with good powerful engine.
But its maintenance cost is night and its very costly tp maintain this car.
But it give a rich feeling while riding this car.
My father use to own this car but because of accidentally break down of timing belt we have to sell this car.
It is a good car but we cant say what whill happen to it because our car break down after two days from service. So it is hard to say
I was amazed by way of the build high-quality of different car makers on this section, after I certainly drove& felt the comfort of Chevrolet Optra Magnum LT 2009. This is a strong automobile with satisfactory of the interiors, functions like airbags, electronic ORVM, sunroof, alpine stereo, three spoke alloys, 1.6 engine with ABS. No longer even in a single jerk of the street, noise level is 0 and on the road balance is fantastic. Its bad to know that Indians do now not recognize first-rate - and all and sundry appears to be running for common, nice& safety can be compromised is secondary. Your Honda(seems like it'll start flying its feather raise looks like you're driving rickshaw), maruti(aside from speedy who cares), Toyota extra of a taxi in small section. Its appropriate GM isn't interested in India they're happy selling there automobiles in other nations. But Magnum is a killler automobile for sure.
HI FRIENDS, CHERVOLET OPTRA: I buyed this catr a 6 months ago and it is a spacious car with all the facilities.This car is filled with all the amenities. Its mileage is also good. I think every one should buy this car, its also cost efficient. this is a spacious car and 5 people can be seated(including driver). when I bought this car my whole family praised me for my choice. It runs approximately at Rs.7 per kilometer. its seats are very comfortable and the drivers experience while driving is also very good. this car dose n't look so nice but it fulfill your demands.I suggest you to buy this car.Thank you, have a nice day.
Hi Friends, This is a good car.It is a comfortable car.My feedback is based on testdrives I have undertaken of the Optra-1.6(the middle model), Honda City(the VTec ZX version) and Corolla(H2). I hope to give a perspective to new car buyers in order to decide better. Your views could differ, but these are my perceptions. The easiest to drive among these was Honda City. Not too say that others are difficult but just comparatively. In the Honda City, the controls are well placed and no issues in driving. The problems arise either if you are tall - I found that there was not even an inch over my head at the driver’s seat and my hair was touching the roof on the rear. Thank you guys for read this review.
The car is very good I bought this 2 month ago and I drive this 20000 kilometer the average of this car is 12 kilometer per liter in highway and the 9 kilometer in the local city the interior is very good made by company and the the engine is power ful and the space is enough and cofort the seats are very comfortable front and back side space is enough provided and the lugage area also enough. fully ac car.
Dear friends please dont purchase chevrolet optra vehicle, because I will be inform to you this chevrolet optra spare parts was not having so much availability in market thats why I suggest you dont purchase this olchevrolet optra. Before this vehicle was having very good condition but now this vehicle manufacturing was finished thats why spare parts was not availabile in market. So dear all I will be advised to you all purchase that vehicles having their all spare parts availability in market & you found very easily if your vehicle was have any trouble thats it.
I bought this vehical because this is a luxurious car with all the facilities.this vehical is fulfiled by all the amenities. Its milaage is also reasonable. I think every one should buy this vehical its also cost efficient. this is a spacious car and 5 people can be seated(including driver). when I bought this car my whole family praised me for my choice. it runs approximately at Rs.7 per kilometer. its seats are very comfortable and the drivers experience while driving is also very good. this car dose n't look so nice but it fulfile your demands.
If I could give this car a negative rating I would. Where do you start. This car ears breaks, rotors, and caliber a. Two motor replacements and a head gasket replaced.
Two trannies. After the light recall headlights still turn off, I had to rewire so the would stay on. Car was rust proofed twice and it is rusting out. Intermittently won't go into gear when starting.
Its an awesome car I would definitely prefer optra than Mercedes. Every true story has a dark side and it has too its fuel consumption.
It gives only 8-9 in city and 12-14 on highway. If I have loved anything after my wife than that is the beauty of this dragon.
But I want to sell it and want to upgrade to cruze. If anyone interested can call me 9716124230, 1.6 elite, petrol, 2006, first owner but second on rc. because it was first registered on my company's name and then I transferred it to mine. price umm. its priceless but I want to upgrade to chevrolet cruze so it matters. I would give it at 1, 90, 000.
