Welcome to 100 Years of Chevrolet

On November 3, 1911, Swiss immigrant Louis Chevrolet and U.S. entrepreneur Billy Durant founded the Chevrolet Motor Car Company. This year, one hundred years after the inception of the company, we are inviting you to celebrate with us our rich history at various events throughout the year.

Today, Chevrolet is one of the best-known automotive brands, not only in the U.S., but around the world. The golden Chevrolet bow-tie still stands for iconic design and the spirit of optimism that inspired Louis Chevrolet to emigrate to America more than 100 years ago.

Interesting press and video releases will highlight historic milestones and fun-facts around our iconic Chevrolet cars and the Chevrolet family. This microsite will be updated regularly with new information, images, event announcements and video releases.
