September
27, 2004: Chevrolet will race
in the 2005 FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC).
For the first time in its history Chevrolet, GM's
largest global brand, is entering a full factory
team in an official FIA world championship.
The announcement comes less than a week after the
news that Chevrolet would begin to market a range
of cars in the UK/Western Europe built primarily
by GM Daewoo Auto & Technology (GM Daewoo) in
Korea, a strategy already successfully deployed
in North and South America, Asia Pacific, South
Africa and, most recently, Central and Eastern Europe. |
