The Chevy LUV (meaning “light utility vehicle”) were pickup trucks that were rebadged Isuzu trucks produced for the US beginning in 1972. They were meant to offer an option since Japanese trucks were gaining in popularity. For most of its production, the only engine was a 1.8L SOHC inline four-cylinder and a four-speed manual transmission. A 2.2L diesel engine was offered for the 1982 model year. Sales in the US ended in 1982 with the release of the new Chevy S10. All told, there were more than 500,000 trucks sold during its ten-year run. Did you know that the 1979 four-wheel drive version new for that year earned Motor Trend’s “Truck of the Year” honor?
