The public got its first look at the all-new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/aveo">2012 Chevrolet Aveo</a> at this year's <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/detroit-auto-show/">Detroit Auto Show</a>, but the RS Concept was only shown as a five-door hatchback, and as we all know, four-door sedans remain the preferred form factor here in the U.S. A newly discovered patent reveals the look of the three-box Aveo, which remains the same as the hatch from B-pillar backwards, but carries a few more interesting design cues. <br />
<br />
The roof-line of the Aveo sedan has a similar profile to the larger <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/cruze">Cruze</a> and from the side, the tail-lights have the same triangular shape. From the rear, the horizontally arranged lights of the Cruze are replaced by vertically stacked lamps and the sedan gets conventional rear door handles in place of the hidden units in the C-pillar of the hatch. The production Aveo should arrive sometime during this upcoming auto show season, with production starting in the first half of 2011 at GM's Lake Orion assembly plant north of Detroit. <br />
