The second-generation Aveo debuted in January 2011 and was sold worldwide as the Chevrolet Aveo; in North America, the Middle East, Chile, Israel, Japan, Mexico and South Africa as the Chevrolet Sonic; and in Australasia as the Holden Barina. As of December 2012, production was taking place at the GAZ plant in Nizhny Novgorod
