Est. 1911 in United States
History
Chevrolet is a division of the American automobile manufacturer General Motors. Founded in 1911, Chevrolet is now sold in most automotive markets worldwide. In its home market, Chevrolet is a consumer favorite.
History
Founded in 1911 in Detroit, Chevrolet first adopted the "bowtie emblem" logo in 1914. In the same year, co-founder Louis Chevrolet sold another co-founder William C Durant his shares. By 1916, Chevrolet was profitable enough to allow Durant purchase a controlling stake in General Motors, making Chevrolet into GM as a separate division. Beginning in 1919, GMC commercial trucks were rebranded as Chevrolet.
After WWII, Chevrolet introduced the sports car Corvette as well as the small-block V8 engine, both of which have become automotive legends and continue to be produced today.
Current Lineup
As GM's budget-friendly marque, Chevrolet has a large vehicle lineup ranging from subcompact hatchbacks to full-size SUVs and pickup trucks. Its larger vehicles have more premium GMC and Cadillac variants.
