GM (General Motors) does not build many cars like the Daewoo-Chevrolet 1700: a 4-door sedan (car) / sedan / 5-door station wagon with 1.7 L Opel cam-in-head engine#1.7 litre I4, built from 1972 to 1979 as the oil crises and the first emissions rules rewired the industry.
The background
The Saehan Camina (Korean: 새한 카미나) is a passenger car built by General Motors Korea (later Saehan Motor Company) between 1972 and 1979, it was a reworked version of the Australian market 1971 Holden Torana.
The engineering
Under the skin sits 1.7 L Opel cam-in-head engine#1.7 litre I4; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. The gearbox is a 4-speed manual. The layout matters: a front engine drives the rear wheels, the classic proportion — long bonnet, cabin set back — that most people picture when they picture a sports saloon or a grand tourer. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Where it sits
Where it sits in GM (General Motors)'s history is not in doubt: the Saehan Gemini followed it; it was built at Bupyeong, South Korea. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Renault 5, the Mitsubishi Lancer, the Volkswagen Passat. Its GM (General Motors) stablemates include the 1955 Chevrolet and the 1957 Chevrolet.
The money
There is no federal ownership record for the Daewoo-Chevrolet 1700 — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
