Why Chevy Sold 33,000 Corvettes In America Last Year

The Corvette line has made great strides since its inception in 1953. In fact, looking back, it is hard to believe that the Corvette once teetered on the brink of discontinuation, as the result of abysmal sales performance. This is even harder to fathom when one stops to consider that Chevrolet produced and sold over 33,000 C8 Corvettes during the previous calendar year alone.

These sales figures are quite staggering for a number of reasons, yet few are as poignant as the fact that the Corvette outsold every other sports car in America during the fourth quarter of 2021 by significant margins. In fact, the Corvette alone accounted for over half of all sales in the U.S. premium sports car market during the last three months of the year.
