The Daewoo Magnus is a mid-sized sedan sold by GM Daewoo positioned to compete with the Hyundai Sonata. It is manufactured in South Korea for GM Daewoo Auto & Technology (GMDAT) by Daewoo Incheon Motor Company at its Bupyeong facility.

The previous-generation model was the Daewoo Leganza (model V100); it was produced from the 1997 to 2002 model years. The Leganza provided the basis for the current Daewoo Magnus (V200), which has been in production since the 2000 model year and was known as Evanda in Europe. Following the establishment of Chevrolet Europe, all Daewoos were rebranded Chevrolet in 2005.

The Evanda comes equipped with the Daewoo developed "XK6" inline-6 engine or a Holden-built 2.0L straight-four carried over from the Leganza. ItalDesign of Italy was resposible for the styling and design of both the Leganza and Magnus. However, the upcoming V250 was styled in Korea by GM Daewoo.

The Evanda is also badge-engineered as the Suzuki Verona in North America and Chevrolet Epica in other markets.

An updated Evanda (V250) will be sold from 2006, which may also be sold by Holden as a replacement for the Opel-sourced Vectra.

The Chevrolet Epica is sold in Canada in two trim levels, the LS and LT. Both have (for model year 2005) a 2.5 liter inline six cylinder DOHC 4 valve per cylinder engine developing 155 horsepower at 5800 RPM, and 177 ft·lbf of torque at 4000 RPM, driving the front wheels through an electronically controlled four speed automatic transmission. The car is positioned as an economical luxury entry, with the LS model equipped with 8 way power seat, 15 inch alloy wheels, 4 wheel disc brakes, air conditioning, cruise control, and CD player. The LT version adds traction control, ABS, and sunroof, all also optional for the LS model. The car is 187.8 inches (4770 mm) long on a 106.3 inch (2700 mm) wheelbase, 71.5 inches (1815 mm) wide, 57.1 inches (1450 mm) high, and weighs 3380 lb (1533 kg).
