The Chevrolet Chevette was originally offered as a two-door sedan and was first released in Brazil way back in 1974. After several model years, the Brazilian Chevette lineup finally included a two-door hatchback and station wagon and a pickup as well. The Chevette station wagon was called Majaro while the pickup was named Chevy 500, and was manufactured until 1994 model year.
