There’s no way to accurately paint a picture of a brand as popular and long-lived as Chevrolet in just a dozen ads, so we didn’t even try. Instead, we’ve gathered twelve of our favorite print advertisements, and didn’t worry too much about amassing a representative sample.
For the record, Chevrolet sold Americans 2.1 million cars in 2016. The brand’s best-selling car was the Malibu (278,000), while the Equinox (242,000) took most-popular-crossover honors, and the Silverado pickup (575,000) took the overall crown.
We stuck to cars here. We’ll take a look at Chevy truck ads in another post. If you’ve ever spent time with one of the vehicles seen below, please tell us about it.
