GM Korea Labo

The GM Korea Labo was a light commercial truck built and sold in South Korea by GM Korea, and earlier by its Daewoo predecessors, from August 1991 until it was withdrawn in May 2021 after remaining stock was sold. The first generation was based on the eighth generation Suzuki Carry. It started with a petrol engine, added an LPG engine in April 1993 and was afterwards fitted only with LPG. The name derives from the Latin and Late Latin words for work and worker. Emissions rules halted production in January 2007, and the truck returned in June 2008 as the New Labo with a cleaner LPG engine. From March 2011 it was sold without a brand emblem, and in 2013 GM Korea announced plans to end it before small business owners secured a reprieve. It appeared in Korean television dramas. A Damas van was its sister model.
