Track width was similar to the former GM H-body subcompacts ( Vega/ Monza). As usual, parts from other GM chassis lines (primarily from the GM G-body intermediates) were incorporated. However, the 1973 Arab oil embargo forced GM to consider designing a domestically produced compact pickup truck. The first compact truck from the Big Three automakers was the rebadged Isuzu KB sold since 1972 as the Chevrolet LUV, and Ford quickly responded with the Mazda-built Ford Courier the same year. The S-Series ended production in Brazil in 2012, being replaced by the Chevrolet Colorado, but still with the name S-10. In North America, the S-series was replaced by the Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon, and Isuzu i-Series in 2004. Together, these pickups are often referred to as the S-series. An electric version was leased as a fleet vehicle in 19. There was also an SUV version, the Chevrolet S-10 Blazer/GMC S-15 Jimmy. The pickup was also sold by Isuzu as the Hombre from 1996 through 2000, but only in North America.
A high-performance version was released in 1991 and given the name of GMC Syclone. When it was first introduced as a "quarter-ton pickup" in 1981 for the 1982 model year, the GMC version was known as the S-15 and later renamed the GMC Sonoma. It was the first domestically built compact pickup of the big three American automakers. The Chevrolet S-10 is a compact pickup truck that was produced by Chevrolet. 1995–2012 (2nd gen North-American S-10) 2012-present (2nd gen Colorado as S-10) (Brazil)įront engine, rear-wheel drive / four-wheel drive
