Chevy celebrates third straight IndyCar manufacturers’ crown

For the third consecutive year, Chevrolet has won the NTT IndyCar Series manufacturers’ championship. It marks the ninth time the General Motors brand has captured the title since its return to IndyCar competition in 2012.

“This is a proud moment for everyone at Chevrolet. The effort by GM Motorsports competition engineering and Propulsion engineers, along with our partners at Ilmor, to deliver power and reliability in the Chevy 2.2 liter V6 IndyCar engine has been outstanding,” said Mark Reuss, GM President.

“This championship is truly a combined effort and could not have been accomplished without the teamwork, preparation, and execution of the five Chevrolet teams: Team Penske, Arrow McLaren, Ed Carpenter Racing, AJ Foyt Racing and Juncos Hollinger Racing. Congratulations to our teams and drivers, and thank you to IndyCar for providing an incredibly competitive series.”

In 13 seasons with the current engine, Chevrolet-powered drivers have scored 122 wins of the 215 races to date, including six Indianapolis 500 wins, and seven driver championships.
