Chevrolet, Chevy

It is the top selling GM marque, with "Chevrolet" or "Chevy" being at times synonymous with GM.

On 25th January 1960 the first Argentinean pick up Chevrolet is introduced.The folowing year the national government approves the investment plan for 45 million dollars which included a plant of 12,000 m2.On 12th march 1962 the first Chevrolet 400 is made based on the North American Chevy II. The original plan considered a national integration of 50% during the first year of production, this amount must get to be 90% in 1964 with a production of 15,000 units.

An example is regarding the Vectra. While the Brazilian Vectra is based on Opel's current Astra Sedan, the Mexican Vectra is actually the current Opel Vectra sold in Europe. Mexico also has some cars of its own, such as the Chevy C2, which is a reworked last-generation Corsa, the Sonora (which is a re-badged Tahoe), and the Cheyenne (which is similar to the Silverado but is as different as the Sonora is to the Suburban). The Chevrolet Optra, assembled in South Korea by GM Daewoo, is also sold in Mexico.
