Chevrolet Lova RV


The Chevrolet Lova RV is a subcompact MPV based on the Chevrolet Sail. The vehicle, launched in 2016, is produced by SAIC GM, a joint venture between American General Motors and SAIC of China. Unlike other MPVs in its size and price range, the Lova RV is sold exclusively in a 5-seat version.

Design and marketing

The Lova RV targets middle-class Chinese families and couples not interested in a subcompact SUV, and as such will slot above the Sail Sedan, and below family-oriented SUVs in terms of pricing. Most of its competition will include domestic MPVs of a similar size, such as the Changan Eulove.
The Lova RV's family-friendly design combines a fascia that conforms to current Chevrolet design norms, thin pillars for enhanced visibility, and mid-range materials and GM technologies in the interior. Unlike many MPVs sold in China, the Lova RV is generously equipped with safety features, with dual airbags standard even on the base trim.

The Lova RV is powered by a sole 1.5-liter inline-four, which is transversely mounted, and powers the front wheels. A choice of a 5-speed manual or 4-speed shiftable automatic transmission is offered on the LS, while the higher LT and LTZ trims get the automatic transmission as standard.
