All Chevrolet cars will be developed as world cars in future ???‚¬??? and they???‚¬?„?ll be available in right-hand drive.

General Motors has restructured its product development for the brand, so different global technical centres will have responsibilities for different platforms. This means future Chevrolets will be developed all over the world, including Europe, with less reliance on the GM-Daewoo technical centre in Korea.

Unfortunately, the decision comes too late for the retro-styled HHR mini-MPV. This US-built car was launched in Europe at Geneva, but as it???‚¬?„?s only built in left-hand drive it won???‚¬?„?t be coming o Britain. However, GM has confirmed that the new Camaro muscle car will be built as a right-hooker, which makes UK sales as an image-leader for the brand a distinct possibility.

The first products of the new structure will be replacements for the Kalos and Lacetti models. These will be developed in Korea, which has responsibility for the C platform, and future Vauxhall Astras will share these underpinnings too.

The globalisation of GM???‚¬?„?s product development will take five or six years to work through, and from Chevy???‚¬?„?s point of view will help iron out the different perceptions of the brand in different markets.
