So, I have a reasonble international job requiring overseas communication (phone, e-mail), but no travel...yet. My question to those who can answer: a Skoda is a what? And the Chevy models: Lacetti, Matiz, and Kalos...what are these? Ford Ka? And the Hyundai Matrix (#42)...isn't there a Toyota Matrix? How can one model name fit 2 car makers at the same time? I know markets differ and names too. Just curious if anyone can shed some light here. I'm googling as fast as I can... |

The Ford Ka is a sub-compact, and fits into the European tendency for smaller, lighter, more fuel-efficient vehicles than we have in the US. Given Chevy are part of GM, which also owns Vauhall (UK) and Opel (Europe), there are lots of models which switch model names and branding as they cross the Atlantic. | |

The Ford Ka is a piece of crap unless it has improved over the last 6 years. We hired one when my wife's car was stolen, it had a 1.3 litre throttle body injected cast iron push-rod engine which apart from the fuel injection was straight out of a 1970s Ford Escort. It is shaped like a blob. Hyundai most likely used the Matrix name in the UK because the Toyota Matrix is a US only model, I don't really know this but I have never heard of a Toyota Matrix or a Hyundai Matrix.
