GM has no current plans to reintroduce the Chevy Cavalier in the United States or Canada, but if a modernized version of the sedan did appear, would you drive a 2024 Chevy Cavalier off the dealer lot if GM actually decided to offer it?
To get an idea of what the 2024 Chevy Cavalier might look like in an alternate universe where it appeared in American showrooms, the Cavalier model sold in Mexico provides a good overview. Mexico is the only country where the nameplate still exists. Thanks to strong name recognition there, The General already reintroduced the car in 2021, attaching the Cavalier name to its most recent Chinese-market Chevy Monza.
The Mexican variant of the Chevy Cavalier is offered in three trims, including LS, LT, and RS, all of which are motivated by the same powerplant. Under the hood, the vehicle sports a turbocharged 1.3L I3 gasoline engine developing 161 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission is on duty for cog swaps.
The base LS trim moves on 16-inch aluminum wheels with four-wheel ABS, and features LED daytime running lights and body-color door handles. The interior features fabric seats and an 8-inch infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay. The mid-range LT trim adds a leather-wrapped steering wheel, cloth and leatherette seats, and rear park assist, a power sunroof and heated outside mirrors.
The range-topping RS trim adds unique 16-inch alloy wheels, black Bow Tie emblems, blind-spot monitoring, a Sport drive mode, leatherette seats as well as RS badging and red contrast stitching. Converting the listed prices in Mexican pesos to U.S. dollars reveals current base prices of about $21,300 for the LS trim, an LT trim priced at $22,900, and a $24,600 base price for the RS. The Cavalier, like 60 percent of the GM models sold in Mexico, is made in China.
The General filed a trademark for the Chevy Cavalier in the U.S. back in summer of 2022, though since then, no further steps toward resuscitating the nameplate have been taken publicly. To repeat the initial question, if GM decided to import the 2024 Chevy Cavalier stateside, would you buy it?

Yes, but only if we slipped into a severe recession or depression and I needed something fast. Maybe Aveo too.
Give it a six speed manual!
I answered no because of it being Chinese manufactured. If it was made in the US or Mexico I would definitely buy one if available.
I take it the machine you’re using to type your comment is made in US or Mexico.
Please let us know the company that is doing the good deed.
If it’s produced in one of the U.S., Korea, or Mexico, I’ll buy it right away. However, the interior must be improved.
Yes
Not if it makes made in China. Produce it in USA or Canada then yes.
Echoing others- not so long as its made in China.
If it comes with a manual, definitely yes
Not from China and add a lot bigger motor like a 2.0 turbo.
Yes, if it’s Made in U.S.A I’ll buy one..
Make a z24 2-door and put an LS engine in it all-wheel drive then yes I’ll buy one
It makes no sense not to sell it in North America. The Chevy brand needs more than the Malibu, with higher mileage requirements cars will become more popular again.
GM Customer service is lousy – They do not stand behind their product even when pointing out
to them inferior materials they used in their EV car. Sent in pictures and text only to be told
to get lost !!! ( But first they run you around the flag pole for a month before telling you to
get lost – I constantly got a your right – your right, and then – NOTHING is done !!! )
Did you buy the vehicle sight unseen? If not, did you not notice the materials they used when you viewed or test drove it? What, exactly, do you expect them to do, redesign the parts with different materials just for you? Unless there’s more to your story, you sound like one of those customers who’s impossible to please.
Get rid of these 3 cylinder engines already
If I were looking for a gas powered car, I would absolutely get one. Those pics are very nice. But the question is a hypothetical one and since we are headed to mostly all EV vehicles, the question would be better to ask if this was offered in the US as an EV, would you buy it. Then my answer would be 100% yes.
So, here is a story from the GM Authority Daily Digest….. asking the question, “would you buy this four door Chevrolet that is being sold in Mexico.” But if you read through the story, at the end it is obvious what is happening to America. Years back GM and others shifted large portions of the car/truck production to Mexico because it was cheaper…… and now we read, that this fine Chevrolet four door (with a better engine it could probably battle the cars offered by Honda, Toyota, the Koreans and even the Europeans) isn’t even built in Mexico… What a sad day and it is just a few short years that USA will be like Australia, no car manufacturing going on period.
Ridiculous. Trax/Envista is the car to buy. Too bad there are so many new car problems/defects.
Mick1: Can you expand on what you mean by “Too bad there are so many new car problems/defects.”
1. Are you referring to new cars in general or this Cavalier or the Trax/Envista?
2. If cars in general, what are the issues you speak of?
3. If referring to the Trax/Envista, I would like to hear what specific issues you are claiming.
4. Overall, what problems/defects are you speaking of?
I TOTALLY 100% AGREE WITH YOU ROBERT GIRONDO,BUT FIRST THINGS FIRST IS, THEY SHOULDN’T HAVE GOTTEN RID PF THE OLD CAVALIERS Z24’S 5 SPEED MANUAL BECAUSE THEY WERE THE BEST,AMD THE STRONGEST IN MY OPINION,AND THEY SHOULD HAVE LEFT ENOUGH ALONE, JUST LIKE MANY OTHER THINGS.
Yes.
Only if it is made it the USA , I am so sick and tired of things not made in the USA.
So you don’t have a smartphone.
If it’s not made here in the USA they should not be let bring them in. Just another way to cut cost and make more money for there self
I answered no because even it were available, it’s too small for my needs and not enough power. Decent looker though.
I say yes because it is not a SUV.
Hell yes I put 300,000 on one
Looks like a late model Ford Focus…
