The popularity of the Chevette in Brazil, and the demand for small utility vehicles in the '80s, prompted the local branch of GM to create a coupé-utility based on the Chevette for the local market and regional exports. The needs and preferences of some operators for an enclosed loading bay also brought a good opportunity for a van version, even though it was simple to just slap a fiberglass high roof above the original loading bay. The former Varig flag-carrier airline had some for ground support, no wonder it's still possible to see few still roaming around in my hometown Porto Alegre, even though most had the van roof removed and turned back into a coupé-utility.
