Since its founding in 1911, Chevrolet has grown to become one of the largest car manufacturers in the world. Commonly referred to as Chevy, the American car company produces roughly four million cars and trucks every year, and is committed to designing vehicles that are as sleek and stylish as they are safe and functional.
Chevrolet Motor Company came to be when Swiss race car driver and automotive engineer Louis Chevrolet co-founded it in Detroit with his brother Arthur Chevrolet, William C. Durant, and a handful of investment partners, including William Little, maker of the Little automobile. The first Chevy automobiles were produced in Flint, Michigan, in what is now known as “Chevy Commons” along the Flint River. The Series C Classic Six was released in the fall of 1913 at the New York Auto Show. Chevrolet first used their now-famous “bowtie emblem” logo in 1914 on their H series models (Royal Mail and Baby Grand) and The L Series Model (Light Six). They debuted their first Corvette in 1953, and since then it has become an iconic Chevy staple. Now, with the release of the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible, Chevy is changing the game once more.
