Chevrolet Nexia at a glance
Quick model context before comparing photos and trim-level specifications.
The Chevrolet Nexia returned to the market under the Chevrolet badge in early 2020 after an agreement between UzAuto Motors and General Motors, replacing the Ravon brand name. Previously sold as the Ravon Nexia R3, this subcompact sedan serves as an affordable option for motorists in search of budget-friendly transportation. Positioned as an entry-level B-segment sedan, the Nexia is built on the GM T250 platform, which was originally used for the first-generation Chevrolet Aveo. It features a MacPherson strut front suspension, a semi-independent torsion beam rear suspension, and hydraulic power steering. Despite its budget positioning, the Nexia stands out in its class by offering electronic stability control as a standard or key feature, alongside standard front-wheel drive and a choice between manual and automatic transmissions. It is designed to offer basic mobility with minimal maintenance complexity.

Chevrolet Nexia overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
As a four-door sedan, the Chevrolet Nexia retains the footprint of the classic Aveo design. The styling varies depending on the trim level. The entry-level LS model is equipped with 14-inch steel wheels and black side mirrors, prioritizing cost-efficiency. Higher trims, such as the LT and LTZ, receive larger 15-inch wheels—steel on the LT and alloy on the LTZ. These upgraded trims also feature body-colored side mirrors and door handles that create a more cohesive and modern exterior look compared to the base version, which uses unpainted plastic components.
Interior
The Nexia's cabin is designed for basic functionality, featuring a five-seat layout with an adjustable steering column and a simple trip computer. Higher trims enhance comfort with air conditioning, which is absent in the base LS model. Infotainment is straightforward, offering a radio with USB and AUX inputs, alongside Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free calls. The audio setup includes two speakers on the base LS trim, which upgrades to four speakers on the LT and LTZ models. Practical details like child seat anchors (LATCH/Isofix) are standard across the range, while passenger comfort is catered to with adjustable elements.
Performance
Power is provided by a single engine option: a 1.5-liter atmospheric four-cylinder gasoline engine (engine code B15D2) producing 106 horsepower and 141 Nm of torque. This engine runs on 92-octane gasoline. Drivers can choose between a five-speed manual transmission or a GM-sourced six-speed automatic. Models with the manual gearbox sprint from zero to 100 km/h in 12.2 seconds and consume an average of 6.5 liters of fuel per 100 km in mixed driving. The six-speed automatic increases the 0–100 km/h sprint time to 12.3 seconds with a mixed fuel consumption of 7.0 liters per 100 km.
Practicality
Measuring 4,330 mm in length, 1,690 mm in width, and 1,505 mm in height, the subcompact Nexia has a wheelbase of 2,480 mm. For a small B-segment sedan, it offers a decent trunk cargo volume of 400 liters, which is suitable for standard luggage and daily shopping. The fuel tank capacity is 45 liters, providing reasonable range. The car's curb weight ranges from 1,190 kg for the manual version to 1,230 kg for the automatic, making it a relatively lightweight vehicle that is easy to maneuver in urban traffic.
Safety and tech
In terms of safety and driver assistance, the Nexia is equipped with electronic stability control (ESP/ESC), an anti-lock braking system (ABS), and dual front airbags for the driver and passenger. The vehicle uses front ventilated disc brakes and rear drum brakes for stopping power. Standard safety inclusions such as child safety locks and an engine immobilizer are also present, while upgrading to the LT and LTZ trims adds fog lamps and heated exterior mirrors to improve safety and visibility in cold or foggy conditions.
Buyer notes
When comparing trims, buyers should note that the base LS is highly basic, lacking air conditioning, power mirrors, and using smaller 14-inch wheels. Upgrading to the LT trim adds essential features like air conditioning, 15-inch wheels, and heated mirrors. The top-tier LTZ builds on this with lightweight alloy wheels. Exact standard features and trim availability can vary depending on the local market and region, so buyers should verify the specific configuration of the vehicle they are considering.
