Is the Chevrolet Aveo ULEZ Compliant?
Based on 10,049 MOT tests, around 93% of Chevrolet Aveos still on the road are likely to meet London's ULEZ standards, and about 7% are likely to be charged.
The fuel mix matters: tested cars were 93% petrol, 7% diesel. Every petrol Aveo in the data (2008 onwards) is likely to be compliant. Diesel Aveos in the data are mostly from years that are unlikely to comply.

How ULEZ rules apply to the Aveo
Cars that miss the standard pay £12.50 for each day they're driven in the zone. Petrol and petrol-hybrid cars need Euro 4 (most from 2006), while diesels need Euro 6 (most from September 2015).
- Petrol (93% of Aveos tested): every year in our data is likely to comply.
- Diesel (7% of Aveos tested): most cars in our data are from years unlikely to comply.
Aveos from 2014 sit on the boundary (0% of those tested): some were built to the required standard before it became compulsory. The Euro standard is sometimes on the V5C logbook, or Chevrolet can confirm it. Our ULEZ calculator can help.

Buying a used Chevrolet Aveo for London: what the MOT data shows
The Chevrolet Aveos in this data were first registered between 2008 and 2014. 2009 was the most common year, with 3,354 tests (33% of the total), and half were registered in 2010 or later.
Aveos from likely-compliant years passed their MOT first time 49% of the time, at an average of 69,011 miles. Older ones likely to be charged passed 54% of the time with 68,642 miles on average, so check a compliant car's condition as carefully as an older one's.
Whichever year you choose, check the Aveo's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were lights and electrics: "not working" (12.4% of tests); suspension: "ball joint excessively worn" (8.8%) and "pin or bush excessively worn" (7.8%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 18.8% of tests.
Overall, 50% of Aveos passed first time, well below the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 68,970 miles on average, fewer than the 73,145-mile average.
