n Brazil, the Ascona C was sold as a two or four-door sedan, or as a three-door hatchback, from April 1982 until 1996 as the Chevrolet Monza. It was originally only available as a three-door hatchback; the sedan body appeared in March 1983. Originally it was available with either a 1.6 or a 1.8 engine with 75 or 84 PS (55 or 62 kW). These were changed to more powerful 1.8 and 2.0s in 1986. In 1989 the slow-selling liftback was discontinued, leaving only the two- and four-door three-box sedans. The Monza received a number of facelifts, the last one bringing its looks in line with those of current European GM products, with new fenders front and rear to accommodate new head and taillights.
Diesel versions were available for export markets, most notably Uruguay and Argentina, powered by Isuzu 4FC1 engine.
In Colombia the sedan version was sold from 1987 to 1992 as the Monza Classic, two version were available: a five-speed manual 'Sport', and a DeLuxe equipped with a four-speed automatic transmission. In Venezuela it was sold from 1985 to 1990. Originally it was equipped with a carburetted 1.8-litre engine, but this was later replaced with a fuel injected 2-litre unit.
