Brand-New 2025 Chevy Express Max Van Debuts In Mexico

General Motors has just unveiled the brand-new 2025 Chevy Express Max, a new member of the commercial vehicle portfolio for the Bow Tie brand that is debuting in Mexico.

The automaker’s Mexican subsidiary officially unveiled the brand-new 2025 Chevy Express Max, a cargo van – unrelated to the full-size Express – that will expand Chevrolet’s commercial vehicle offering in the Latin country. GM Mexico is presenting the 2025 Express Max van as the latest addition to the brand’s model lineup, which seeks to strengthen its positioning in the midsize van category.

“With the addition of the Chevrolet Express Max to our commercial van portfolio, we are adapting to the needs of small, medium and large companies by offering the versatility and cargo capacity they need,” said Chevrolet Marketing Manager at GM Mexico, Angel Pacheco. “This new van will boost the leadership of the Tornado Van in the compact van category, and allows us to strengthen our presence in the midsize van segment, adding to the Express Cargo Van,” he added.

Maxus V70 Cargo Van

Notably, the 2025 Chevy Express Max is a new product of GM’s partnership with SAIC Motor and is based on the Maxus V70 Cargo Van that the Chinese company manufactures in the Asian country. As such, the 2025 Express Max represents the second vehicle from a third-party Chinese brand and the second Maxus model rebadged as a Chevrolet to come to Mexico – following the Maxus T70-based Chevy S10 Max midsize pickup that debuted in 2021.

GM Mexico says the new 2025 Chevy Express Max will stand out in the local market for its well-crafted exterior design, its space and cargo capacity, as well as for offering an interior with the most complete equipment list in its category. Said list includes a 12.3-inch infotainment system touchscreen, a digital driver instrument panel, an HD rear view camera and a safety feature package. It’s also equipped with a turbocharged 2.0L diesel engine and a six-speed manual transmission.

The brand-new 2025 Chevy Express Max will be officially launched and go on sale in Mexico during the first quarter of next year, when it is scheduled to arrive at the brand’s dealer network. The 2025 Express Max will be Chevy’s third commercial van in the Mexican market, positioned between the current Chevy Tornado Van and the Chevy Express Cargo Van. Details on versions and configuration will be revealed closer to launch.

  • That strange grille/bumper/combo thing looks like it’d be expensive to fix.

    GM: paint-to-match panels might work for appearance on personal vehicles. But for commercial, anything likely to get beat up (i.e. the bumpers!) needs to be bolt-on stuff that can be swapped in a hurry.

    • I don't see a problem. It is one big simple piece. The lower, black panel is also simple. Ford Transit is set up similarly, above the lower black bumper cover there is a giant fascia piece that surrounds the grille and extends all the way across and out to the fenders. Large, simple pieces are the way to go with vehicles that are roughly used and must be kept on the road as much as possible. Cuts down on downtime when repairing minor accident damage.

      My main problem with it is its origin. They had no problem engineering the Corvan, original Chevy Van, etc., now look where they are.

      The powertrain makes me like it more, as it is a realistic solution.

  • One question, why is it all the other countries get the new size vans that you can stand up in.

  • It's a midsize van with a nice diesel motor, and you can stand up in it - so why has GM not brought this to market in the US - and will it at some point? Does it not believe that mid-size vans will not work in the US? And if not - why not turn it into a full-size van?
