The Daewoo Espero (kent as Daewoo Aranos in some Spainyie-speakin kintras an aw) is a mid-size cuar produced bi the Sooth Korean company Daewoo Motors frae 1990 tae 1997. It wis technically based on the GM J platform an haed the distinction o a body designed bi Bertone. It bore mair nor a passin resemblance tae the Citroën Xantia, itself a Bertone design an aw. The caur wis equipped wi Holden-biggit GM Family 1 1.5 L ingine, or the 1.8 or 2.0 L Family II ingine. The Espero wis replaced bi the Daewoo Leganza in 1997.
The Espero wis renamed Aranos in some but no aw Spainyie-speakin kintras (no in Chile for instance), syne the wird Espero means I wait in Spainyie. Sic a name wis deemed less nor marketable.
In Australie it wis sauld frae 1995 tae 1996 afore it wis replaced in 1997 bi the Leganza. It wis pouered bi the 2.0 litre GM Family II ingine an wis available wi aither a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic.
The Espero's 2.0 litre ingine wis biggit in Australie an exportit tae ither kintras for assembly.

The UK market
[eedit | eedit soorce]UK imports began in Januar 1995 when it wis ane o twa caurs (the ither bein the Nexia) in the first Breetish Daewoo range. It sauld well in the UK, thanks tae its competitive askin price, impressive equipment levels an the comprehensive eftersales package. The Espero wis launched juist months afore the Vauxhall Cavalier MK3 wis discontinued an the Vauxhall Vectra, the Cavalier's replacement, wis introduced.
