Chevrolet Optra Car Reviews
Affordable Elegance, Premium Comfort
Jan 30 2025After having a great experience with the Chevrolet Exclusive and Optra, I finally got the Chevrolet Cruze. Unfortunately, the engine was in poor condition due to modifications by local mechanics. I had it overhauled at M/S Suntech and imported parts directly from GM Motors Korea. The car is excellent in terms of build quality, drive, and advanced options. It gives 8 to 9 km/l in the city and over 15 km/l on long routes. The Cruze stands as the largest and quietest compact car. It’s the first true global effort from General Motors, available in 61 countries worldwide. It’s truly my dream car!

Affordable Sedan With Style
Jan 30 2025Exterior
Looking back at the 2002-2008 period, the Chevrolet Optra’s exterior design was stunning, competing with the likes of the Pakistani GLI and Civic. Even in 2020, when I own this car, I’m still very happy with its appearance.
Interior
Having driven a Honda City 2009 and Baleno, I find the Optra’s interior far superior. It still looks pristine, with no cracks o r issues, and it gives off a luxurious feel.
Engine
The car features a 1.6-liter engine. The previous owner didn’t take much care of the engine, so I had to go for an overhaul. Currently, I’m in the running-in period, following the mechanics advice to keep it under 2000 rpm. Even during this period, the engine response is excellent.
Fuel Average
Fuel economy is an important factor for many, and while the Optra is not the best in class, it’s decent. On long routes, I get around 10 km/l with the engine still in the running period, but in the city, it s to around 8 km/l, especially without AC. It’s average when compared to other 1.6-liter cars like the GLI.

A Hidden Gem
Jan 30 2025Recently, I bought a Chevrolet Optra 2009 1.6, and I’m satisfied with the car. The only downside was the fuel consumption, but I installed an LPG system, and with LPG prices in Algeria, it’s now more efficient—500 km for just 02 €. I’m really enjoying my time with the Optra!
