Found a few online and confirmed plates on Data.car.ar. The Chevrolet badge started to appear on the 1995 models that were semi-built in Brazil (motors). So yes if the Brazilian models have 'Built in Belgium' then this should as well.
Bux_48 ◊ 2020-08-05 16:10	So, if I'm understanding well, Argentina got first Opel Astra imported from Germany (pre facelift ones) in about 1992-94, and in 1995-96 Chevrolet Astra (facelift ones, notice Vauxhall-style grille, not Opel ), imported from Belgium like Brazil?
dhill_cb7 ◊ 2020-08-05 16:15	I believe 1994 was the first year in RA so I believe it was just 1994 models as Opel. I believe 1995-1996 were Brazilian-Belgium sourced Chevrolets
