The Chevrolet Astro is a full-size van that was produced by General Motors from 1985 to 2005. It was introduced as a 1985 model year, replacing the Chevrolet Van. The Astro was initially offered only in a cargo version but was joined by a passenger van trim level in 1986. The Astro was closely related to the GMC Safari, which differed mostly in its front grille and badges. Both vehicles were built on a shortened version of the Chevrolet G-Van platform. While the Astro initially shared a platform with the Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck, starting in 1995, it used a modified version of the GMT330 platform, which underpinned the Chevrolet Silverado, Tahoe, and Suburban. This platform change brought a larger and more comfortable interior, along with a more modern and refined driving experience.

The Chevrolet Astro was known for its spacious interior, versatility, and reliability. It was a popular choice for families, businesses, and people who needed a vehicle with plenty of cargo space. The Astro was available with a range of engines, including a 4.3L V6 and a 5.7L V8. The transmission options included a 4-speed automatic and a 5-speed manual. The Astro was also offered in a variety of trim levels, with features ranging from basic to luxurious. From 1996 to 2005, the Astro was available with a rear-wheel-drive layout only, but it was offered with a four-wheel-drive system during its first five model years. With a relatively long lifespan, the Chevrolet Astro has gained a devoted following amongst enthusiasts and owners, and with the abundance of aftermarket parts, the Astro remains a popular choice for custom builds, camper conversions, and off-road adventures.
