Chevrolet is a brand of automobile, produced by General Motors (GM). It is the top selling GM marque and the best known brand of GM worldwide[citation needed], with “Chevrolet” or “Chevy” being at times synonymous with GM.
Chevrolet offers over 20 vehicles(many of the same chassis with different body panels) and many different enhanced versions in its home market. The brand’s vehicles range from subcompact cars to medium duty commercial trucks. Its number one sellers in the United States include the Silverado pickup, which is recently the best-selling vehicle in the United States and the Impala, which is the number one selling car with a domestic nameplate in the United States.
Mexico and Latin America
Historically, many Mexican and Latin American-market vehicles from GM were modified derivatives of older models from GM’s North American and European operations. The current S10 and Blazer exemplify this strategy. However, more modern vehicles are now being marketed as market conditions change and competition increases. Besides those older models made in Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia and Mercosur, Korean sourced cars from former Daewoo factories some markets also get German Opel and US made Chevrolet on top of their local line-ups.
