Chevrolet Lacetti Hatchback
What Car? rating - 3 out of 5
FOR  The Lacetti undercuts most small hatch rivals on price and supplies masses of passenger space for the money. It drives well enough and the 1.4 engine is quiet.
AGAINST  Entry-level cars miss out on some basic equipment and the 1.6 engine is gruff. The cabin materials are unappealing and the ride is unsettled by poor surfaces.
