The Aveo hatch is long overdue. CD/BP has even stated that he is shocked that they haven't released pics or an autoshow date, etc regarding this product. So I'd suspsect we'll see the launching of the next Aveo Hatch soon --- it'll still be based on the old platform, but nevertheless it will be updated.

As for the Lacetti, we can expect the next version when the new Delta II platform arrives. Since GM is reducing platforms and wants to create global platforms, the next Lacetti/Nubira/Optra will have to debut when the next Astra and Cobatl debut --- so figure end of decade if not a bit sooner.
