Chevrolet Cheyenne – the collective page of the C/K trim, later a stand-alone model: six- and eight-cylinder engines of 4,785 to 7,500 cm³
This collective page gathers the Chevrolet Cheyenne, originally a trim line on the Chevrolet C/K pickups that from the 1970s marked the upgraded specification, while Cheyenne Super denoted the sportier variant. In Mexico and much of Latin America the name later became a stand-alone model designation for Chevrolet's pickups; the register's model list correspondingly shows both classic C/K Cheyenne trims of the 1970s to 1990s and the later vehicles sold under the Cheyenne name.

The register lists 15 versions with displacements from 4,785 to 7,500 cm³ from six- and eight-cylinder engines, unladen weights from 1,770 to 2,658 kg and gross weights from 2,268 to 3,500 kg; lengths lie between 4,910 and 5,000 mm, widths between 1,910 and 2,080 mm.
The Cheyenne name still stands for the high-volume base specification of American Chevrolet pickups and, especially in Mexico, is one of the best-selling commercial-vehicle names of all; the large-capacity six- and eight-cylinder engines of the older model years made it a rugged work vehicle for agriculture and trade.
On a used Cheyenne, rust on the frame and load bed, the condition of the carburettor or early injection, the mileage of the engine, and the condition of the clutch and automatic transmission all count; parts are readily sourced through the North American GM trade and specialist importers.
