It’s that time of year again, the NASCAR season is here. Team Chevy and race fans are gearing up for the 67th running of the DAYTONA 500. Chevrolet is the winningest brand in the NASCAR Cup Series with more wins at Daytona International Speedway than any other manufacturer, including last year. I’m excited three Chevrolets will be pacing all three races at DIS this weekend: a Corvette Stingray, a Silverado RST and the Blazer EV SS. The SS will pace the DAYTONA 500 on Sunday. It’s a 615 horsepower, 3.4 second vehicle, making it the quickest SS we’ve ever produced. Chevrolet’s founder had a passion for racing, as such it’s in our DNA – and the SS is a testament to that. Yesterday we made more news at Daytona ahead of this weekend’s race by revealing our 1,300 horsepower Blazer EV.R NASCAR prototype. It’s an example of how we test and explore new technologies that will yield learnings that could benefit race programs and the development of production cars. It will be on display this weekend at the Chevrolet Experience Center along with multiple historic cup cars, Blazer EV SS, and our famed Firebird I. Let’s bring home that checkered flag! #IWorkForChevy
