Are all chevys made in Mexico?

Chevrolet vehicles are not exclusively produced in Mexico. While Mexico is a major production site for some models, Chevrolets are manufactured in several countries around the world, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, and China, among others.


Chevrolet's Global Manufacturing Footprint


GM operates a network of plants and joint ventures across continents to serve regional markets. Production locations vary by model, year, and demand, with some vehicles built closer to where they’re sold to optimize supply chains and meet regional regulations.


The following regions host significant Chevrolet production centers for different markets:



  • United States — A substantial portion of Chevrolet's lineup is assembled in U.S. plants, including flagship models and a broad range of trucks and crossovers.

  • Canada — Canadian facilities have produced a portion of the lineup and contribute to North American production.

  • Mexico — Mexican plants build several models for North American and Latin American markets, reflecting regional production strategy.

  • Brazil and Argentina — Major Latin American hubs for production of region-specific models and exports to nearby markets.

  • China — A joint venture with SAIC produces Chevrolet models for the Chinese market.


Not all Chevys are made in Mexico. The exact country of origin for a given model depends on factors such as the model design, year, and market, with production spread across multiple countries.


How to verify the origin of a specific vehicle


To confirm where a particular Chevy was built, check the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), which includes a plant code, and review the window sticker or dealer documentation. Automotive databases and GM's regional resources can help interpret the plant code and country of origin for a given vehicle.


Summary


No—Chevrolet operates a global manufacturing network. While Mexico is a key production site for certain models, Chevrolets are also built in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, China, and other regions. The country of origin for a specific model varies by model and year, reflecting GM's worldwide manufacturing strategy.
