Buying the 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
No 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Before buying the 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
A buyer's checks
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA has 196 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, service brakes and engine and engine cooling. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
The figures, translated
The engine is the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Rated at 9.6 L/100 km combined, it needs around 29 litres for a 300 km round trip. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $14.88 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Size and space
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. At 4.64 m long, it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots. The trunk holds 368 litres by the EPA's count: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
A week with the Cavalier answers more than any brochure. Rent the Cavalier for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Drive the Cavalier on your commute before you commit to it.
Picking a year and a trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.88 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
