Chevrolet Sail hatchback did create quite a bit of sensation at the Auto Expo with its premium looks and GM's intention to introduce it in both the fuel variants. Though drawn into discussion a couple of times, Chevrolet Sail sedan did miss out the hype at the recently concluded 11th Indian Auto Expo.

Mechanically, the Chevrolet Sail sedan will most probably come with the 1.3 L Fiat’s multijet diesel engine as observed in the Chevrolet MPV and Chevrolet Sail hatchback displayed at the Auto Expo, but for the petrol engine, General Motors India might use the 1.4 L gasoline engine as seen in Chevrolet Aveo which is basically what GM India hopes to replace in the domestic car market with the new Sail sedan. Unlike the Chevrolet Aveo sedan, getting the Chevrolet Sail sedan price right could help the auto major garner better sales for the upcoming twins targeted to replace the Chevrolet Aveo twins.
