2010 Chevrolet Cobalt Overview

Price Range: $14,990 to $24,535

Our Price: Ask Us

The 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt is the bowtie-brand’s compact star, and is packed with great features and fuel economy.

Up front is a 155-horsepower, 2.2-liter inline-four or a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four. Power is transmitted through either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Fuel economy is quite impressive with 24-25 mpg city and 33-37 mpg highway – that bests the Hyundai Elantra, Ford Focus, and Nissan Sentra, among others.

LS, LT, and XFE models come in coupe and sedan configuration and seat five. 13.9 cubic feet of cargo room out back is better than most compact car offerings, and occupant room is mostly competitive. The XFE model is pretty basic with cloth seats and no air conditioning or power door locks, but has perhaps the most important feature of all: an unbeatable price tag. It also lacks traction control, but does come with a CD player and XM Satellite Radio.

The LS model includes air conditioning and air filtration. Antilock brakes and a traction control system are optional. The Cobalt features list takes a big step up with the LT model, as seat coverings are upgraded to a premium material and sunroof comes optional. Remote power door locks are standard, while a navigation system and an upgraded stereo are on the options list. For the final touch, you can add leather to the steering wheel and shift knob.

In NHTSA crash tests, the 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt coupe received Four- and Five-Star impact ratings; the sedan received Four-and Five-Star ratings, except for a Three-Star rating on the driver’s side. While the antilock brake and traction control systems are not standard, they are an easy addition considering the Cobalt’s superior base price within the compact car segment.

When your priority is affordable, highly fuel efficient transportation, the 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt really can’t be beat. Up to 37 miles per gallon on the highway make this as fuel efficient as some hybrid vehicles, but without the hybrid price.

Secret 1
Consumer Incentives

 

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

How can you fully understand incentives to get the lowest possible price on your car?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

 

 

Secret 2
Finance & Insurance

 

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

How can you determine what's in your best interest?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 5
Dealer Holdback

 

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

How can you take advantage of dealer holdbacks to get the bottom line price?

Secret 6
Dealer Incentives

 

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate. How can you benefit from that?

Secret 3
Additional Costs

 

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

In any case, there are many fees and charges in the sale process: some inevitable, others questionable. How do you tell them apart?

Secret 4
Trade-in Value

 

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new car. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership. How can you maximize your value?
