The Chevrolet D-20 is a series of pickup trucks manufactured by Chevrolet in Brazil and Argentina as a complement for the 10 Series. When it was first launched, it could be ordered with a 4.1L gasoline or ethanol engine (C-20 or A20, respectively) or a 3.9L Perkins diesel (D-20). In 1991, the Perkins was replaced with the Maxion S4 diesel making 66 kW (88 hp) and the turbocharged Maxion S4T making 92 kW (123 hp). In 1995, the S4T was updated, now producing 110 kW (147 hp). This version of the D-20 was called Turbo Plus, and equipped with ABS in the rear. Whilst all models are commonly referred to as D-20, the gasoline model was marketed as the C-20, and an otherwise mechanically identical ethanol-fueled version as the A-20.[1][2][3]

While most production occurred in Brazil, some were built in Argentina from CKD kits.[4]

Production ceased in 1996: it was replaced with the Chevrolet Silverado, a North American spec C2500.[5][6]

The pickups were available in 2 or 4 door variants and the SUVs in 3 door (Bonanza) and 5 door (Veraneio) variants.
