Montana 2023: the new sub pick-up that debuts on the Brazilian market next February

The most anticipated release of 2023, the new Montana, debuts at Chevrolet dealerships starting in February. The model inaugurates a new concept of medium-compact pick-up, combining the comfort and handling of an SUV with the versatility and robustness of a real pick-up.

The new Montana also excels in design, interior space, safety, connectivity and performance. The body proportions of the Chevrolet pick-up are unprecedented and provide a fantastic result for a vehicle measuring 4,720 mm in length and around 1,800 mm in width: it offers the best accommodation for second-row occupants in the segment, has ample for cargo and is still easy to manoeuvre.

The unprecedented Multi-Flex bucket is an important differential of the product and was designed to work as a giant trunk (874 liters). It features an advanced roof sealing system that offers best-in-class water protection. The bucket also has an extensive line of customized accessories, which allow hundreds of solutions for cargo transport, in a combination that no other vehicle on the market offers.

Regarding the look, the new Montana is characterized by shapes that enhance the strength of the pick-up. The front is characterized by a split LED headlight, in tune with Chevrolet's latest global design language. The side is marked by the typical silhouette of SUVs, but has a high waistline and moldings around the entire base of the vehicle, which make it appear even taller. At the rear, a glossy black bar connects the taillights and adds refinement to the set.

Already the highest driving position, the technological environment of the cabin and the finishes with premium materials refer to SUVs. This sensation is reinforced by the low noise level on board, the very comfortable ride and the excellent stability of the vehicle, whether empty or loaded.

The new Montana is just as amazing on the track, with best-in-class acceleration-to-fuel ratio. The Chevrolet pick-up is equipped with a 1.2 Turbo Flex engine with up to 133 hp and 210 Nm of torque. The engine features exclusive calibration, in line with the vehicle's multipurpose proposal. This same customization work was carried out on the other mechanical systems, such as transmission, steering and suspension. Even tires were specially developed for the model.

The equipment offer for the new Montana is comprehensive and includes: six airbags, blind spot alert, Full LED headlights with height adjustment and automatic lighting, digital air conditioning, parking sensor with reverse camera, smart key with remote start. button, bucket lid with weight relief on descent, wireless smartphone charger, native Wi-Fi, OnStar system and app to control car functions remotely.

All this so that the new Montana is truly the “SUV you need, in the pick-up you dreamed of”, both from a practical and dynamic point of view.

Chevrolet is starting pre-sales for the LTZ and Premier versions, the most sophisticated in the range. The inaugural lot will come equipped with a bucket accessory created for the vehicle: the exclusive Multi-Board dividers. They allow for a much more intelligent accommodation and distribution of the load.

The new Montana is a project developed in partnership with GM technology centers in South America, North America and Asia. It arrives as the largest member of Chevrolet's global vehicle family, already made up of the current generations of Onix, Onix Plus and Tracker - all are references in their respective segments.
