The Opel bakkie was first launched in 2011 and was long a member of the elite team when its name was replaced with a Chevrolet badge. Along with the badge the van also got bigger dimensions. It used to be the country’s number one but it now completes closely against the Nissan NP200. With only 68 kW but a payload of 750kg, they make for really good work vans and they make for great play vans as well, that’s what makes these bakkies ever so popular. It also goes by Chevrolet Montana on the Brazilian market and as the Tornado in some others.
