The science of speed
Never satisfied with the current standings, Chevrolet pushes the limits of racing innovation to reach the finish line first and fastest. From state-of-the-art development and engineering advancements — including AI, machine learning, simulations and more — to a track-down approach to manufacturing, our passion for motorsports is fueled by a hardwired desire to produce world-class racing vehicles using technology that will ultimately make every Chevrolet vehicle smarter.
At 200 mph, class begins
What does a 200-plus mph, single-seat, open cockpit race car running at 12,000 rpm have in common with the Chevy Malibu? It might be more than you think. Because the 2.2-liter direct injected twin turbo V6 engine that helps fuel our IndyCar success has inspired of some of the efficient technologies found in Chevrolet production models. If it wins on the racetrack, it may find its way into your car.
ndyCar debuts hybrid power unit
The hybrid era for IndyCar made its competition debut at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in July.
Chevy worked with IndyCar and other manufacturers to create a hybrid powertrain that provides an adrenaline-pumping 60 horsepower boost. There are two options that drivers have for regenerating energy: automatic via braking or throttle position, and manual via selected steering wheel paddles or buttons.
The new hybrid power unit stores energy in a supercapacitor, which delivers short but exceptionally powerful bursts of energy to enhance the on-track action – perfect for thrilling both drivers and race fans alike.

The power to set us apart
At the highest levels of racing, milliseconds count. Nowhere is that more true than in IndyCar, where our powertrain is our advantage. The 2.2L twin-turbocharged V6 engine churns out around 700 horsepower that drives us to win. And when we win, the whole lineup wins.

- Dear General Motors, we the undersigned regret to inform you: BEING THAT you continue to allow songs by Dustin Lynch, Locash (formerly Locash Cowboys), and countless others to mention your brand Chevrolet, we can’t in good faith buy one of your cars, and must also advise others NEVER to buy said cars. UNTIL such date as Chevrolet exhausts all legal remedies to stop such songs AND in addition reinstates “Like a Rock” by Bob Seger as the official song of all General Motors advertising, a BOYCOTT will be in place.
