After GM Authority exclusively captured the 2025 Chevy S10 during its validation testing in mid-June, Chevrolet‘s refreshed midsize pickup was just spotted wearing less camouflage in Brazil.
Brazilian media has published new images of the facelifted 2025 Chevy S10 that were recently captured by Instagram user @v22garage, who had a direct encounter with the truck and obtained the best images so far of a lightly camouflaged prototype. This time around, the 2025 S10 was seen with the final body design and the final headlamp configuration, wrapped with a thin film that allows its proportions to be better appreciated.

As we exclusively reported several months ago, spy photos confirmed that the upcoming 2025 Chevy S10 will receive a major update, but will not be completely redesigned. In fact, the comprehensive changes to the next version of the South American-market pickup represent the largest overall evolution in the model’s history – which will now share more similarities with the all-new North American Chevy Colorado.
On the outside, the most significant change to the upcoming 2025 Chevy S10 will be a redesigned front end with the latest Chevy pickup design language that includes a higher hood, slim rectangular headlights and a muscular grille with the prominent horizontal bar characteristic of the brand’s trucks. It will also include new fender trim and an updated rear fascia, while the prototype includes the High Country trim’s aerodynamic sport bar.

In addition, this new capture of the upcoming 2025 Chevy S10 also includes a photo of the cabin, although it’s covered to prevent us from seeing what changes it will receive. However, the 2025 S10 is expected to boast a new interior design with a dashboard and technologies similar to those introduced in the new Colorado, such as the infotainment system’s touchscreen that aligns with the digital instrument cluster.
The upcoming 2025 Chevy S10 will be officially presented in the coming months in Brazil, where it will go on sale during the first half of next year when production will begin at the GM Sao Jose Dos Campos plant. The pickup will adopt an updated variant of the 2.8L I4 XLD28 turbodiesel Duramax engine, with improved power and the next-generation eight-speed automatic transmission introduced by the 2023 Chevy Colorado.

We want the Diesel in NA!
Hopefully they figured out how to keep the price down. Cars are expensive in brazil.
Also, hopefully they completely reengineered the 2.8. The fact the new 2.7 gasser is right up on its heals on fuelly is a testament to the diesels age.
Considering that Chevrolet chose to develop just one facelift for the S10, there is no reason for the brand to increase pickup prices. Even more so, the model will still be approximately 1 decade behind in terms of platform and engine compared to some competitors.
The new generation of Ranger was launched locally recently and even with the introduction of the modernized platform, more modern engines and new technologies, Ford managed to establish extremely competitive prices in relation to all competition. So much so that Ranger’s monthly sales are approaching the S10’s monthly sales volume in Brazil.
I hope the seats are more comfortable than the Colorado.. I was issued a Colorado by the government agencey I work for and gave it back (traded it for a full size Silverado) after a month because I felt like I was sitting in a Home Depot 5 gallon bucket..
It would be a nice addition here in the US…
Its the same size as the Colorado, but more expensive as brazil cant figure out how to keep auto prices down.
In fact, part of the reason vehicle prices are high in Brazil is due to Brazil’s high and complex tax system.
Furthermore, it is also known to the public that in Brazil, factories prefer to adopt the strategy of applying a higher profit margin on a smaller volume of sales rather than reducing their profit margins to increase sales.
There have already been some studies that state that the profit margin of automakers in Brazil is double that in other countries such as the United States.
I know, brazil is bad. Doesnt help they crack down on inports to keep local production.
they have the colorado, why make a s10?
Chevrolet never sold the North American Colorado in Brazil. She preferred to opt for the global version and renamed it S10 due to the name’s fame.
I believe it would have been smarter for Chevrolet to have chosen to manufacture the new Colorado in Brazil and sell it as the S10.
Chevy needs a smaller truck to compete with the Ford Maverick. Ford can’t make enough of these to keep up with demands. I have always said that whomever goes back to making a smaller truck again would make out like a bandit. The demand for a small truck is there.
