The Chevrolet Montana is a front-wheel drive coupé utility (first two generations)/crossover pickup (third generation) manufactured by General Motors under the Chevrolet brand since 2003. Mainly produced in Brazil and marketed throughout Latin America, the first and second-generation Montana was also produced and marketed in South Africa as the Opel Corsa Utility, Chevrolet Corsa Utility and Chevrolet Utility. In Mexico, the first and second generation Montana was known as Chevrolet Tornado, because Pontiac had already used the Montana name for its minivan offering for North America.
The design of the first generation is a variation of the Opel Corsa, while the second generation is based on the Chevrolet Agile. The third-generation Montana entered production in 2023 as a larger four-door pickup based on the GEM platform.
