Este es un especial de El Mercurio con motivo de las 200.000 unidades de Chevrole Luv armadas en Arica. Ahí dice que en Chile también se armaron el Chevette y algunas camionetas, además del Aska.
Como los que saben castellano pueden leer las imágenes, transcribí sólo la información en inglés:
Starting in 1980, the LUV began being assembled in Arica, with an increasing number of national components. That first model is the KB26, many of which still proudly travel across the country.
In 1988 the TF model was introduced. It meant a radical change in LUV's evolution. It's external appearance, in addition to its engine and other mechanical aspects, were novelties that remain current.
In 1985, five years after the start of the Chilean assembly of the LUV, the proportion of local parts was of only 3%. Nowadays (1997), thanks to the development of this industry, it reaches 40%.
The main Chilean-made parts include: Metallic floor, seats (structure-foam-fabric), car jack, electric wiring, glass, cyclonic filter (I have no idea what that is!), roof fabric, carpeting, hoses, fuel tank, bumpers, radiator, pickup fenders, chassis, tyres, batteries and the complete exhaust system.
