Expert opinion and recommendation

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA L (Petrol) is a decent option for those looking for a reliable and spacious hatchback, but it falls short in several key areas. The 1.2-litre petrol engine, while adequate for city driving, lacks the punch needed for brisk acceleration and feels underpowered, especially when the air conditioner is on. The engines refinement is also a concern, as it becomes noisy and buzzy beyond 4000 rpm. However, the cars ride quality and handling are commendable, making it comfortable for daily commutes. The gearbox, though smooth, requires some effort and can be a bit unfocussed. Overall, its a practical choice for family use but not ideal for those seeking spirited driving.

Chevrolet has updated the pricing of the Sail U-VA, with the petrol variant now starting at a competitive price point. This move is aimed at making the car more attractive in the highly competitive hatchback segment in India. I believe this price adjustment could boost sales significantly.

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA petrol is powered by a 1.2-litre Smartech petrol engine, which delivers 86bhp and 113Nm of torque. This engine is also used in the Chevrolet Beat and is known for its decent performance and fuel efficiency of 18.2 kmpl.

General Motors launched the Chevrolet Sail U-VA in India on November 2, 2012, as part of their strategy to capture a larger share of the Indian car market. The car was jointly developed by GM and its Chinese partner SAIC and was designed to replace the aging Aveo U-VA. I think the collaboration brought some interesting design elements to the table.

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA features Chevrolets signature dual port chrome grille and Hawk Wing styled headlamps, giving it a distinctive look. The car also boasts twenty-five storage spaces and Flex Flat and 60:40 Folding Rear Row seats, making it one of the most spacious cars in its segment. I believe the design and storage options are major selling points.

Mileage

Fuel efficiency information

The mileage of the Chevrolet Sail U-VA L (Petrol) is a mixed bag. In ideal city driving conditions, you can expect around 12-13 kmpl, while on the highway, it can stretch to about 15-16 kmpl. However, real-world usage often yields lower figures, typically around 10-12 kmpl in city driving and 13-14 kmpl on the highway. This makes it less fuel-efficient compared to some of its diesel counterparts but still manageable for everyday use.

About

General information and overview

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA L (Petrol) is a hatchback designed with the Indian market in mind, offering a blend of space, comfort, and practicality. Powered by a 1.2-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine producing 85 bhp, it is well-suited for city driving due to its responsive low-speed performance and linear power delivery. The car features a five-speed manual gearbox, which, although smooth, requires some effort in gear shifts. The interior is spacious, with good legroom and comfort for both front and rear passengers. The suspension setup, including McPherson Struts at the front and a Twist axle at the rear, provides a comfortable ride over Indian road conditions. However, the exterior design is somewhat bland and lacks the modern appeal of some of its competitors. Overall, the Sail U-VA L (Petrol) is a solid choice for those prioritizing comfort, space, and everyday usability over high-performance driving.
