The Chevrolet Venture is a minivan from General Motors. It replaced the Chevrolet Lumina APV in the Chevrolet range in 1997 and was sold in Europe as the Vauxhall/Opel Sintra. Opel assisted in the development of the van as well. For 2005, the replacement model will be renamed Chevrolet Uplander.

The 1997 Venture, also sold as the Oldsmobile Silhouette and Pontiac Montana, used a 180 hp 3.3 L V6. A larger 3.4 L 185 hp engine was used from 1999.
