arent they really korean not american !
To be fair to Chevy Europe they don't seem to claim to be American.It's certainly no worse than the German brands with their cars built in Belgium/USA/Mexico/South Africa for the UK market.
(or the Korean cars built in Slovakia )
For someone of my age with memories of US brands in 60s and 70s I always felt the introduction of the Chevrolet range in the UK would be a disaster. Most people can see through the veneer of a famous name badge glued onto a bland cheap car. Whilst Chevrolet is a mainstream brand, albeit with a long heritage, the association is with Camaro, Nova, Impala and Corvette (although I am not sure they bore the Chevrolet name at all times). Badging Korean cars just undermines the famous brand.
