Months ago, in the press release in which it is rumored arrival of a Holden VE UTE U.S. under any brand of General Motors, commented that there was little possibility that we saw this model here in Chile. This provided the chosen brand for the U.S. Joint Venture Chevrolet outside. Well, after all, chosen to sell the joint venture was Pontiac, which introduced the American model makes only a couple of days ago. This could have been the end of history “VE UTE Chevrolet,” but no, there’s more. A couple of days ago General Motors said in a press release that the Holden VE UTE visiting South African roads in the hands of Chevrolet, the name of the union?, Chevrolet Lumina.
The Chevy Lumina is virtually identical to the original Australian version in terms of technical specifications and design. Even SS version will offer the V-engine 362 Hp and 528 Nm of torque to the rear wheels derivatives.
And again the question rephrased, could see a VE UTE here in Chile? At least I still see it difficult but not impossible. Difficult because I see it already has the Chevrolet LUV, which is quite successful in the segment, in addition, if we consider that the most basic UTE V6 engine comes with 3.6 we can imagine that a car is not very economical in terms of consumption fuel and this could also be playing against in the Chilean market. But if we look at the other side of the coin, we could also say that the VE UTE LUV and do not share exactly the same market segment. Okay, both are utilitarian, but is a much more sporty and more comfortable than the other. Besides, I prefer to stay with the words of Kristian Aquilia Manager GM Holden exports. “Exports are an essential part of our strategy and success in the VE range overseas we expect to export 50 percent of vehicles are manufactured here in Australia in the near future.”
