Chevrolet Venture - Generation 1 (2001-2007)

CHEVROLET VENTURE (2001-2007)

This van isn't based on the Venture sold in North America, rather it is based from the Buick GL8 van sold in China. Early models have their seats configured for 10 people but a 2005 update reduced it to eight. After this van, no other similar vehicles were brought in.
