Where are Chevrolet car engines produced?

Among the currently available Chevrolet models, except for the engines of imported models such as the Camaro, Colorado, and Silverado which are produced in the United States, the engines of other models are manufactured in China. Chevrolet is an automobile brand under General Motors (GM) of the United States, established on November 3, 1911. It is an American brand primarily manufacturing sedans, sports cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. Notes regarding car engines: 1. The engine should be cleaned approximately every 20,000 kilometers of driving; 2. It is recommended to change the engine oil and oil filter approximately every 5,000 kilometers of driving; 3. Try to avoid keeping the engine under overload operation for extended periods, as it not only increases fuel consumption but also reduces the engine's service life.
Talking about the origin of Chevrolet engines is actually quite complex. As a brand under General Motors, their engines are produced in manufacturing plants worldwide. In the United States alone, there are several major factories, such as the particularly large Tonawanda Engine Plant, which specializes in manufacturing both small and large engines. In China, SAIC-GM's factories also produce engines, with facilities in Shanghai and Shenyang providing powerplants for many Chevrolet models sold domestically. The Thailand factory is also responsible for supplying vehicles to parts of the Southeast Asian market. Most crucially, engine components are now globally sourced - the engine block might come from Mexico, the turbocharger could be made in Germany, and final assembly might occur in the U.S. So if you really want to know the specific origin, it depends on the exact model year and configuration of the vehicle you purchase.
