What is the difference between Chevrolet's black emblem and gold emblem?
1 Answers
Chevrolet does not have a black emblem; it has always been a gold emblem. Here are the relevant details: 1. Initially, the Chevrolet gold emblem was used on high-performance vehicles. In recent years, it has become more mainstream. In 2017, Chevrolet tested the waters by releasing one black-emblem version of the Equinox RS, which received positive feedback. By the 2018 model year, the number of RS models increased to five. However, this RS version has no connection to racing tracks; the differences from the standard version are only in exterior and interior details. 2. The Chevrolet emblem features a stylized bowtie, symbolizing the brand's elegance, grandeur, and sophistication. The word 'Chevrolet' is derived from the name of Swiss race car driver and engineer Louis Chevrolet. 3. There have been many speculations about how the Chevrolet 'Gold Bowtie' emblem came to be, and the story behind it may forever remain a mystery. The most widely circulated and romantic version of the story is associated with William Durant.
