It looks like General Motors won’t enjoy its tax incentive advantage over Tesla for all that long. The maker of the Chevrolet Bolt EV and Volt plug-in hybrid (“extended-range EV,” in GM parlance) told Green Car Reports it will pass the 200,000-unit green vehicle threshold this quarter, meaning a halved federal tax credit for those […]

Chevrolet Performance Expanding Crate Options for Project Cars
Chevrolet is responding to Dodge’s introduction of a Hellcat-based crate engine intended for project cars that absolutely have to produce an obscene amount of horsepower. The “Hellcrate” was introduced last year, making 707 hp, for the low price of $ 19,530 — which actually sounds kind of expensive when you say it out loud. Not to be outdone, […]
Isn’t it Ironic: Chevrolet Launches Engaging Phone App Intended to Curb Distracted Driving
Chevrolet is releasing a new smartphone app, titled Call Me Out, to help remind motorists to keep their eyes on the road and put their phones in their pockets while driving. Of course, individuals will still have to check their phones to receive the messages, which seems a little counterintuitive. While the automaker appears to […]
Thanks for the Customers: Chevrolet Will Continue Building Many Sedans as Ford Exits the Stage
With Ford abandoning the sedan business for what it hopes are greener pastures, General Motors is going to stick with it. While it’s doubtful the automaker expects to pick up every customer the Blue Oval leaves behind, the sedan market still has millions of potential customers in it. However, with the industry shifting ever more […]
2019 Chevrolet Malibu RS First Drive – Curiously Viable Transportation
I thumbed the start button, adjusted the mirrors, and backed away from the coffee shop. A couple of miles later, my co-driver/navigator was distracted and we missed a turn on our route guide. I hustled around an unexpected roundabout, trying to make up time, and the mid-sized sedan dove into the corners like a much […]
Rare Rides: This 1975 Chevrolet Is Both Vega and Cosworth
An enterprising GM executive, a British tuning company, and a compact hatchback came together in 1975 to make a very special, limited-production Chevrolet. It’s the Cosworth Vega, naturally. This Vega is the third instance of an H-body vehicle in the Rare Rides series; the only time we’ve featured a single platform thricely. Chevrolet’s Vega was […]
Hertz Offers Opportunity to Rent and Destroy 100th Anniversary Chevrolet Corvette Z06
While the process of renting a car is frequently obnoxious, the actual vehicles are incredible. Assuming you get damage protection, you can basically do whatever you want to them. These vehicles are the prostitutes of the automotive world, willing to engage in activities too explicit for the model that currently lives in your garage. The […]
Chevrolet Dumps 6.2-Liter V8 Into ‘Premier Plus’ Editions of Tahoe, Suburban
Last year, Chevrolet introduced Rally Sport Truck (RST) variant of the Tahoe. Effectively an appearance package for the body-on-frame SUV, it also opened the door for a performance package containing General Motors’ Magnetic Ride Control, a 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8, and the 10L80 10-speed automatic transmission. The company did the same for the Suburban a short […]
Sweetening the Pony Pot: Price, Content Tweaks Coming to 2019 Chevrolet Camaro
We told you the other day how Ford’s Mustang reigns supreme in the domestic pony car crowd, at least in terms of volume, with Dodge’s Challenger serving as a delightfully archaic and stable-selling runner-up. That leaves Chevrolet to figure out how best to get buyers excited about its own entry. Depending on trim, there’s a […]
