Chevrolet has been a mainstay in American automotive culture since 1911 and produces a wide variety of vehicles from the electric Bolt EV and EUV to the performance Corvette Stingray. The Chevrolet Silverado line of pickups has been one of the top three vehicles sold in the U.S. for years, competing with the Ford F-Series and Ram Truck lineup for the top spot.
