This comprehensive workshop service repair manual covers a range of vehicles, including the Matiz, Kalos, Nubira/Lacetti, Tacuma/Rezzo, and Evanda, with a focus on the European market. Founded in 1967 and later acquired by General Motors, these models were produced with varying platform codes such as M100/M150 for the Matiz and T100 for the Kalos. These vehicles, known for their affordability and practicality, offered diverse engine options from efficient 0.8L units to more powerful 2.0L engines, paired with manual and automatic transmissions. The models represent a significant part of automotive history before integration into GM's global network, with vehicles like the Matiz and Kalos later rebadged as Chevrolet models in many regions.
