America's car industry comes down to a few big names, and not all of the 'Big Three' are American-owned. Here is who owns what: GM, Ford, the Europe-based Stellantis behind Jeep and Ram, Tesla and the EV newcomers, and the familiar names that are now owned abroad.
Chevrolet is General Motors’ volume brand, one of the best-selling automotive nameplates in the world. Its North American lineup is dominated by pickups (Silverado) and large SUVs (Suburban, Tahoe, Equinox), while the Latin American and South Asian ranges lean toward smaller models on GM’s GEM platform.
In Brazil, Chevrolet competes directly with Hyundai, Volkswagen, and Fiat in the compact crossover segment, where the Onix platform family is central to its sales volume.
