I have concern with naming this car (V200) the Chevrolet Evanda. I have no problem with the car being listed under the Chevrolet page as a Chevrolet. However, it must be listed under Daewoo Motors as the Daewoo Magnus for historical accuracy. The thousands of Daewoo Magnus cars on the road from previous years did not suddenly loose their name and become Chevrolet Evandas. Even today, the V200/Magnus is first and foremost a Daewoo. It was designed and built as a Daewoo, and still is by the non-GM owned Daewoo factory in Korea. BTW, the Bupyeong factory is a surviving part of the original Daewoo Motor. Also, the car is sold as a Daewoo in Korea, the car's home country. Yes, the Daewoo brand has been changed recently to Chevrolet in a majority of markets, however this is not a reason to strip the car of its history.
