Behold, during a celebration of National Military Appreciation Month and just a couple of days after Osama was killed, the American troops get a GM discount program expansion. The SS verison of the 2012...
It seems that the Americans from Chevrolet are in a quite big trouble being forced to recall almost 130,000 Cruze units sold in North America. Only the models sold in U.S. are being affected from this recall as the U.S. Cruze benefits from a fully electric steering system that is not the same as the European version. In fact, there...
I try, I really do. I just keep on disliking and hating it as much as possible and yet the 2011 Chevrolet Volt just keeps on popping up in the good beats of the news. A very new General Motors statistic really reveals the way the 2011 Chevrolet Volt attracts more customers to the Chevy dealerships. The reason behind the...
I know people would genuinely point laser aiming guns at my point for saying this but it seems like the Chevrolet Corvette is truly related to the Honda CR-V.

There are so many things to be watched for in the automotive industry it can be very easy to overlook things that keep car makers alive.

It seems like Chevrolet wasn't the only company ready to celebrate 45 years of the Camaro and they're not the only company that can cook up quite a car.

A long long time ago, Chevrolet launched the Camaro to fight off Ford's brilliant and very successful new Mustang.

As a general matter, recalls on relatively new cars appear because they affect the integrity of the vehicle or the passengers. In the case of the new 2011 Chevrolet Cruze, a small batch of vehicles are going to be called back in for a problem that may end up affecting both. It seems that when a number of 2500 units...
Feeling like the Chevrolet Volt has captured the public's attention lately, GM came up with a new scheme to get some extra media coverage.

Chevrolet is looking forward to introduce Camaro on the Chinese market and they decided to come up with a new name which to be honest I don't think is the wisest decision.
