Model overview
The Chevrolet Venture is a minivan built by GM for the 1997 through 2005 model years. Along with most of its GM's minivan equivalents, the Chevrolet Venture was assembled at the Doraville assembly factory.
The Venture designation was originally used on a 1988 Chevrolet concept vehicle, a full-sized four-door sedan. The Venture debuted in 1996 for the 1997 model year as a follower for the Lumina APV. In the United States, it was also marketed as the Pontiac Trans Sport (later changed to Pontiac Montana) and the Oldsmobile Silhouette.
The Venture came in three trim levels, the base, LS, and LT. The Venture was powered by a 3.4 L V6 engine, rated at 180 hp, and paired to a four-speed automatic transmission. Following 1999, the powertrain was slightly improved to deliver an extra 5 hp, for a total output of 185 hp.
