A STUDY IN
PERCENTAGE
The production of Chevrolet cars in 1914 was 5,000.
In 1 9 1 6 it is to be 96,485 an increase of over 1800
per cent, in two years.
The 1916 production represents an increase of more
than 600 per cent, over the precious year, while orders on
hand exceed 6p over WOO per cent, those of a year
ago this time.
In other words the demand for Chevrolet motor cars
maintains its lead over our steadily increasing pro
duction capacity because Chevrolet production from
the beginning has not been mere cars, but, in every
sense of the term, quality motor cars.
Chevrolet has won its way through sheer merit to this
enviable position.
Chevrolet quality cara are built in two
chassis models, tho "Four-Ninety," the
little aristocrat of molotdom, and the "Baby
Grand," a large, powerful touring car. ,
