Chevrolet Epica

The Chevrolet Epica, internally coded V250, is a mid size sedan with front wheel drive. It was built from early 2006 to the end of 2011 in South Korea by GM Daewoo, and production then continued in China until 2014. In Australia and New Zealand it was sold as the Holden Epica, in Iceland as the Chevrolet Tosca and in South Korea as the Daewoo Tosca, and in some countries it briefly carried the name Daewoo Verona. Shown first in February 2006 and at the Geneva show in March 2006 together with the Captiva SUV, it replaced the Chevrolet Evanda and kept its 2,700 mm wheelbase. At launch it had a transverse inline six of 2.0 or 2.5 litres, a turbocharged 2.0 litre common rail diesel of 110 kW followed in March 2007, and a factory LPG system was available for the petrol engines. Shanghai GM delivered 14,950 units in 2014.
