Chevrolet Presents the HHR!


For the first time this season the V-WTCC Grand Prize was present at a Semi-Final. The Chevrolet HHR was shown to spectators, standing right in front of the RaceRoom™ Game Park. The HHR also made it's appearance as the official WTCC leading car, guiding the WTCC field through the formation lap.

Chevrolet feels the chemistry between the car and the competition obviously. This shows when Eric Nève, Motorsport Manager at Chevrolet Europe, comments on the HHR:

"The HHR is a perfect car for V-WTCC: It really stands out as a special product, just like this competition does."

SimBin is very pleased with Chevrolet's partnership in this project, as is V-WTCC Event Manager Bram Hengeveld:

"The car looks even better in real life than it does on pictures. Branded with the V-WTCC Partners it seeks the attention of the crowd passing by. I am very glad to have it here."

As one of the Partners, Chevrolet keeps a close eye on the developments in V-WTCC. Nève tells us about Chevrolet's involvement in V-WTCC:

"It is a whole new experience for Chevrolet as we are in such a project for the first time. It looks promising and we are looking forward to see how it develops.''

The Chevrolet HHR travels through Europe with V-WTCC and is displayed in front of the RaceRoom™ Game Park on all of its Semi-Final and Grand Finale events. Be there and check it out!
