info Brand Overview
Chevrolet is one of the most popular budget brands in Ukraine with 217 thousand unique vehicles. The American brand, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William Durant, became part of General Motors and one of the world's largest automakers. The golden bowtie is one of the most recognizable logos in the automotive industry.
In Ukraine, Chevrolet is primarily a brand of budget sedans and hatchbacks. Aveo and Lacetti, assembled at the ZAZ plant in Zaporizhzhia from 2003 to 2014, together account for 65% of the total fleet. After GM's market exit ~2015, the brand is sustained by used car imports from the US. An interesting trend is the growing Bolt EV and Volt, forming a significant electrified portion.
