==== India ====
{{main|Chevrolet Sales India}}
Until 2003, GM India—originally a joint venture with [[Hindustan Motors]], sold the [[Opel Corsa B|Opel Corsa]], [[Opel Astra (India)|Opel Astra]] and the [[Opel Vectra B|Opel Vectra]]. Launched by GM's India operations, Chevrolet officially began business in India on June 6, 2003. The Corsa and Astra were built at a plant in [[Halol]], Gujarat.

Chevrolet sold the [[Chevrolet Cruze]], [[Chevrolet Spark]], [[Chevrolet Optra]], [[Chevrolet Aveo]], [[Chevrolet Tavera]], [[Chevrolet Captiva]], [[Chevrolet SRV]], [[Chevrolet Beat]], [[Chevrolet Sail]] and [[Chevrolet Aveo U-VA]]. The [[Chevrolet Forester]], a rebadged [[Subaru]], was imported directly from [[Fuji Heavy Industries]] in Japan until 2005. The Cruze and Tavera were built at the Halol plant. Chevrolet also was the sole engine supplier for the [[Formula Rolon]] single-seater series in India. In 2017, GM ceased the production and sale of Chevrolet cars in India, but it continues to run service centers.

====Indonesia====
In 1999, Opel was rebranded to Chevrolet as a coincidence of Chevy's entry to Indonesia.

Chevrolet stopped selling cars and ceased production in Indonesia by the end of March 2020.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.cnnindonesia.com/teknologi/20191028174142-384-443574/chevrolet-pamit-dari-indonesia-konsumen-angkat-bicara|title=Chevrolet Farewell from Indonesia, Consumers Speak Up|publisher=CNN Indonesia|access-date= February 29, 2020}}</ref>

==== Japan ====
From 1995 to 2000 [[Toyota]] in an agreement with GM sold the third-generation model Chevrolet Cavalier as the [[Toyota Cavalier]] in Japan in exchange for the [[Geo Prizm|Geo/Chevrolet Prism]] in an effort to avoid additional restrictions on their exports to the US. The OHV [[Chevrolet Stovebolt engine]] was used and reverse-engineered by Toyota when they created the [[Toyota Type A engine]] when GM had a factory manufacturing GM cars in Japan at [[List of General Motors factories#Former factories|Osaka Assembly]] during the 1920s. In the mid-2000s, Suzuki imported and marketed the [[Chevrolet Trailblazer (SUV)|Chevrolet TrailBlazer]] and the [[Chevrolet Optra]] wagon in Japan. Suzuki, a GM partner, also assembled and marketed the Chevrolet MW microvan. The MW was originally a rebadged Suzuki Wagon R+ and later a rebadged Suzuki Solio. Suzuki had also marketed the [[Holden Cruze|Chevrolet Cruze]] subcompact in the past.

In the 2010s, General Motors Japan Limited distributed and marketed the [[Chevrolet Sonic|Sonic]], [[Chevrolet Captiva|Captiva]], [[Chevrolet Camaro|Camaro]], and [[Chevrolet Corvette|Corvette]] in limited numbers through an agreement with [[Yanase (car dealership)|Yanase Co., Ltd.]] dealerships. In the 2000s, General Motors Asia Pacific (Japan) had distributed and marketed the TrailBlazer also. {{As of|2010}}, [[Mitsui]] Bussan Automotive distributes and markets the [[Chevrolet Tahoe]], [[Chevrolet Express]], [[Chevrolet HHR]], [[Chevrolet Silverado|Silverado]], and [[Chevrolet Traverse|Traverse]].

Previously, it had also marketed the Starcraft versions of the [[Chevrolet Express|G-Van]] and [[Chevrolet Trailblazer (SUV)|Chevrolet TrailBlazer]]. Mitsui Bussan Automotive had been importing and distributing certain GM models since 1992, but will cease their GM import business in November 2011, as GM Japan wants to consolidate the distribution channels. The Chevrolet models that have been imported by Mitsui will no longer be sold once existing inventories are depleted. As of 2022, General Motors Japan imports and distributes the Camaro and right-hand-drive Corvette in Japan.

==== Kazakhstan ====
Kazakhstan-based Allure Group of Companies and Uzbekistan-based [[UzAuto Motors]] opened an assembly plant for the manufacture of Chevrolet-branded cars in March 2020, in the city of [[Kostanay]]. As of 2024, the vehicles are assembled from [[Knock-down kit|semi-knocked-down]] or [[Knock-down kit|complete-knocked-down]] kits. Assembly of the Chevrolet Onix from [[Knock-down kit|complete knock-down kits]] commenced at the plant in March 2024. A separate dealer in [[Almaty]], authorized by GM, imports and sells the Tahoe and Traverse.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.wardsauto.com/chevrolet/chevrolet-production-launches-in-kazakhstan|title=Chevrolet Production Under Way in Kazakhstan|website=www.wardsauto.com}}</ref>

==== Kyrgyzstan ====
Uzbekistan-based [[UzAuto Motors]] and Kyrgyz supplier DT Technikis are opening an assembly plant near Bishkek in the summer of 2024. Components will initially be imported from Uzbekistan, with plans to build components independently in the coming years. The plant will assemble Chevrolet and Isuzu vehicles. The Chevrolet brand has been licensed from GM. The plant will assemble 10,000 cars from [[Knock-down kit|semi-knocked-down kits]] within the first twenty months, with increased production expected. The Chevrolet Cobalt compact sedan will be the first Chevrolet-branded vehicle to be assembled at the plant, with plans to expand to many other models in the coming years.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.wardsauto.com/chevrolet/new-plant-to-build-chevrolets-for-central-asian-markets|title=New Plant to Build Chevrolets for Central Asian Markets|website=www.wardsauto.com}}</ref>

==== Malaysia ====
Chevrolet entered the Malaysian market in 2003, replacing [[Opel]]. Between 2003 and 2009, a joint-venture between GM and [[DRB-HICOM]] called Hicomobil, marketed the [[Chevrolet Aveo (T200)|Chevrolet Aveo]], [[Daewoo Lacetti|Chevrolet Optra]], [[Opel Zafira|Chevrolet Nabira]] and [[Holden Commodore (VY)|Chevrolet Lumina]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Hicomobil Looking at 6,000 Units of Chevrolet in 2004|url=http://www.autoworld.com.my/v2/news/nb_details.asp?keyword=&MainCat=&CarMake=&hidAction=Search&awReviewID=1590|work=Autoworld|access-date=May 31, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121029052834/http://www.autoworld.com.my/v2/news/nb_details.asp?keyword=&MainCat=&CarMake=&hidAction=Search&awReviewID=1590|archive-date=October 29, 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref> The joint venture was ended and [[Naza]] was taking over Chevrolet's dealership as Naza Quest Sdn Bhd in 2010. The lineup of Chevrolet cars available were [[Chevrolet Sonic]], [[Chevrolet Cruze]], [[Chevrolet Malibu]], [[Chevrolet Captiva]], [[Chevrolet Orlando]] and [[Chevrolet Colorado]].

In 2018, Naza Quest Sdn Bhd ceased to distribute new Chevrolet vehicles in Malaysia, but continues to provide warranty support and aftersales service for existing Chevrolet customers.<ref name="paultan.org">{{cite news|url=https://paultan.org/2018/11/14/naza-quest-ends-its-chevrolet-distributorship-in-malaysia-gm-to-announce-new-partner-in-due-course|title=Naza Quest ends its Chevrolet distributorship in Malaysia|publisher=paultan.org|access-date= February 2, 2020}}

==== Middle East ====
In the Middle East, Chevrolet-badged cars, trucks, SUVs, and crossovers are sourced from GM Korea (in South Korea) and GM in North America. Formerly, some models were sourced from GM Holden in Australia. The Middle Eastern market has a separate division called [[Chevrolet Special Vehicles]], which (as of December 2007) sourced the high-performance {{convert|400|bhp|abbr=on}} CR8 sedan from [[Holden Special Vehicles]]. The [[Holden Commodore]] was badged as the Chevrolet Lumina in the Middle East, as well as South Africa. The longer wheelbase [[Holden Caprice]] was sold as the [[Chevrolet Caprice]] in the Middle East. The Middle East fleet (particularly Saudi Arabia) includes the likes of the  Groove, Captiva, Blazer, Tahoe, and Traverse in the SUV/crossover category, and the Silverado in the truck category.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.chevroletarabia.com/sa-en|title=Chevrolet Sports Cars, SUVs & Trucks | website=Chevrolet Saudi Arabia}}</ref> Previously, the Cruze, Malibu, Sonic, and Avalanche, among other models, were offered in the Middle East.

==== Pakistan ====
In Pakistan, Chevrolet introduced its cars in collaboration with a local automobile manufacturer called [[Nexus Automotive]]. The lineup from Chevrolet Pakistan included the [[Chevrolet Optra]], [[Chevrolet Spark]], [[Chevrolet Spark#Asia|Chevrolet Joy]], [[Chevrolet Aveo]], [[Chevrolet Cruze]], and [[Chevrolet Colorado]].

==== Philippines ====
Chevrolet has been in the Philippines for a long time, assembling the [[Chevrolet Bel-Air]], [[Chevrolet Impala]], [[Chevrolet Malibu]] and even the 1st generation [[Chevrolet Camaro]] by the Yutivo family-owned General Motors plant.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.camaros.org/yutivo.shtml|title=CRG Research Report - Yutivo Camaros|website=www.camaros.org}}</ref> Other than Chevrolets, the plant also assembled [[Opel]]s, [[Pontiac (automobile)|Pontiac]]s, [[Holden]]s, [[Buick]]s, and [[Vauxhall Motors|Vauxhall]]s for the Filipino market.

GM withdrew from the Philippines in 1985 and returned in 2000. During Chevrolet's absence in the market, many cars like the [[Chevrolet Suburban]] and the [[Chevrolet Astro]] have been imported new in the country via grey-market and sold to retailers.

Chevrolet's current Philippine operations are under the control of The Covenant Car Company Inc.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://chevy.com.ph/newsrelease/features/139-chevrolet-philippines-strengthens-customer-service-in-2012|title=Chevrolet Philippines strengthens customer service in 2012|access-date=June 23, 2013|date=April 1, 2012|publisher=Chevrolet Philippines|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130627181937/http://chevy.com.ph/newsrelease/features/139-chevrolet-philippines-strengthens-customer-service-in-2012|archive-date=June 27, 2013}}</ref> The company was officially incorporated on July 1, 2009 and assumed business operations on October 1, 2009.<ref name="A">{{cite web|url=http://chevy.com.ph/about|title=About Chevrolet Philippines|access-date=June 23, 2013|date=April 1, 2012|publisher=Chevrolet Philippines|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130613133006/http://chevy.com.ph/about|archive-date=June 13, 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2018, the Corvette was added to the roster, making it the most expensive vehicle in the lineup. It is legally imported, as the government has seized and destroyed expensive vehicles that were bought into the country illegally.<ref>[http://gmauthority.com/blog/2018/11/you-can-now-buy-a-c7-chevrolet-corvette-in-the-philippines/ “You Can Now Buy A C7 Chevrolet Corvette In The Philippines”] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181125115423/http://gmauthority.com/blog/2018/11/you-can-now-buy-a-c7-chevrolet-corvette-in-the-philippines/ |date=November 25, 2018 }} from GM Authority (November 23, 2018)</ref>

==== South Korea ====
Many global-market Chevrolet vehicles are designed and manufactured by [[GM Korea]] of South Korea, but they had been sold under the [[Daewoo Motors]] brand in South Korea until February 2011. The Daewoo brand was fully replaced by Chevrolet in March 2011. All Daewoo products relaunched under the Chevrolet brand, with the release of the [[Chevrolet Camaro]], [[Chevrolet Orlando]] and [[Chevrolet Aveo]]. In 2015, the Impala was added to the lineup as Chevrolet began importing the American-built sedan to South Korea for the first time.<ref>[http://gmauthority.com/blog/2015/07/2016-chevrolet-impala-to-be-exported-out-to-south-korea/ "2016 Chevrolet Impala Exported To South Korea"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170601181241/http://gmauthority.com/blog/2015/07/2016-chevrolet-impala-to-be-exported-out-to-south-korea/ |date=June 1, 2017 }} from GM Authority (July 31, 2015)</ref> In 2018, Gunsan plant was shut down on May 31 and VIDAMCO plant in [[Hanoi]], [[Vietnam]] was sold by Vinfast in June.{{Citation needed|date=September 2020}} [[Chevrolet Cruze]] and [[Chevrolet Orlando]] was discontinued on May 31.

==== Thailand ====
{{Main|General Motors Thailand}}
The American-built [[Chevrolet Colorado]] pickup is also manufactured in Rayong, Thailand. Starting in 2003, the [[Holden Commodore]] was badged as the [[Chevrolet Lumina]] in [[Thailand]] for the [[Holden Commodore (VY)|VY]] and [[Holden Commodore (VZ)|VZ]] model series. Exports lasted until 2005.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.nextcar.com.au/n.holden.2005.exports.06feb.html | title = Flagships star in GM Holden's export record | publisher = Next Car | date = February 1, 2006 | access-date = December 19, 2014 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20141219122749/http://www.nextcar.com.au/n.holden.2005.exports.06feb.html | archive-date = December 19, 2014 | url-status = dead }}</ref>

General Motors is currently exploring cost-cutting options as part of its restructuring plan. One of these options involves expanding the Rayong, Thailand plant to add additional capacity to export Colorados to the US. This would allow the Shreveport, Louisiana plant to be closed (where the Colorado is also produced). This scenario is plausible only if a free-trade agreement is signed between the U.S. and Thailand, as the American [[tariff]] on imported pickup trucks from non-FTA countries is currently 25%. The [[United Auto Workers]] is the most vocal opponent to a change in the tariff structure.

In addition to the Colorado pickup trucks, General Motors began assembling Chevrolet Captiva sport utility vehicle in its Rayong plant during June 2007. The Thai-assembled Captiva is based on THETA platform under the program code C100. Also produced at the General Motors' Rayong plant are the Chevrolet Aveo (launched in September 2009 under the platform T100) and Chevrolet Cruze (launched in November 2010 under the platform GLOBAL DELTA).<ref name="ASEAN Automotive Statistics">{{cite web|title=Proliance|url=https://www.proliance.co.th|publisher=Proliance|access-date=February 28, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120315025705/http://proliance.co.th/|archive-date=March 15, 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Chevrolet stopped selling its vehicles throughout Thailand in 2020, and sold the Rayong plant to Great Wall.<ref name="BP">{{cite news|url=https://www.bangkokpost.com/business/1859694/gm-sells-off-factories-to-great-wall |title=GM sells off factories to Great Wall |newspaper=Bangkok Post |publisher=Bangkokpost.com |date= |accessdate=2022-04-18}}</ref> Aftermarket sales, repairs and warranties will be honored for its Thai customers through authorized shops.<ref name="BP"/>

==== Uzbekistan ====
UzAuto Motors (formerly GM Uzbekistan and Uz-DaewooAuto) is an automotive manufacturer owned by the Government of Uzbekistan. It is based in [[Asaka, Uzbekistan|Asaka]], Uzbekistan. It manufactures vehicles under the marques Chevrolet and Ravon, for domestic sales and export. GM Uzbekistan was partly owned (25%) by General Motors and, in 2019, it was acquired by the Government of Uzbekistan and renamed UzAuto Motors.

General Motors Uzbekistan, or [[GM Uzbekistan]], became the new name of [[Uz-Daewoo Auto]] in March 2008 as part of a new joint venture owned by Uzavtosanoat JSC (75%) and General Motors Corporation (25%) with a factory in [[Asaka, Uzbekistan|Asaka]] producing a variety of Chevrolet models.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uzavtosanoat.uz/content/view/15/52/lang,en/|title=АК "Узавтосаноат"|website=Uzavtosanoat.uz|access-date=October 7, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130523043608/http://uzavtosanoat.uz/content/view/15/52/lang,en/|archive-date=May 23, 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> In the 2010s, the Damas (N150), Matiz (M150), Nexia (N150), Spark (M300), Epica, Malibu, and Captiva were assembled at the plant.
