For well over 100 years, Chevy has been a leader in the auto industry and produced some of the most exciting vehicles on the road. Chevy first started in 1911 when it was founded by Louis Chevrolet and William Durant, who had recently been ousted from General Motors––a company he had started. Under his leadership, Chevy quickly became the biggest car company in the United States, and Durant was able to make enough money to retake control of General Motors. He then turned around and brought Chevrolet into the GM fold, along with other brands like Buick and Cadillac, to realize his vision for a new kind of car company that would run numerous brands to appeal to a variety of markets.
Within GM, Chevy became the name designed to appeal to a wide range of drivers and offer something for just about everyone, something it continues to live up to still. Throughout the 20th Century, especially following World War II, Chevy introduced iconic vehicles like the Corvette, Bel Air, and Corvair. Along with these cars, the Chevy C/K pickups were among the most reliable and impressive trucks on the road. Much of Chevy’s success has been due to their incredible engineering and technology, from the Stovebolt six-cylinder engine introduced in 1929, which fueled models like the Standard Six of the 1930s, to the Chevy small-block V8 engine, which is the longest mass-produced engine in the world and it is still being made.
These days, the Chevy lineup is as good as it has ever been—perhaps even better. No matter what you are looking for, you can find a Chevy that will meet your needs, from reliable cars like the midsize Malibu and all-electric Bolt EV to incredible SUVs like the Trailblazer and Tahoe. With the introduction of the Chevy Silverado at the start of the 21st Century, Chevy made it clear that they were willing to take bold new steps into the future that built on their legacy of power and capability. This is why we are incredibly proud to offer the full Chevy lineup and why so many people have come to count on everything that this legendary brand brings to the road.
Here at Jim Ellis Chevrolet, we have a simple goal: ensure all of our customers drive away in the perfect vehicle that has everything they are looking for. In part, we accomplish this by providing you with fantastic customer service. Our salespeople are ready to listen to you and focus on what you are looking for to ensure you find it. But the best customer service does not mean much if we cannot actually get you the vehicle you want, which is why we also work hard to maintain a fantastic inventory of both new and pre-owned vehicles for you to choose from.
A brand-new Chevy is one of the finest models on the road, giving you a terrific driving experience that you can enjoy and depend on for a long time. Whether you are interested in a smaller crossover model like the Trailblazer or Equinox, or something bigger like the Traverse or Suburban, we can help you find the perfect SUV that meets your needs. If you prefer a hard-working truck, then the Chevy lineup is an ideal choice, with some of the most impressive pickups available anywhere. From the midsize Chevy Colorado with its off-road design and engineering to the legendary Silverado 1500 and the Silverado HD models, we can help you find a new Chevy truck that perfectly meets your needs.
If you are interested in a pre-owned vehicle rather than a brand-new model, then we are ready to help you there too. We offer a terrific selection of used models from across the Chevy lineup, giving you a diverse range of cars, trucks, and SUVs to choose from with a variety of model years, trims, and features on them. Our inventory includes dozens of models that we offer exclusively, along with more vehicles that we can offer you through CarBravo. No matter what you are looking for in your next ride, we will help you find a pre-owned model in excellent condition that you can enjoy and rely on for many years to come.
When you are shopping for a car, you deserve to work with people who truly care and who know what it takes to help customers. Jim Ellis first found his place in the auto industry in 1960 and opened his first dealership in 1971—growing and building since then. Today, we are still family owned and operated, with three generations of the Ellis family running things and making sure we uphold the values that Jim Ellis had when he started things alongside his wife, Billie. That means we are not some mega-dealership that has no roots in the community. We believe in the importance of providing excellent customer service and treating everyone who comes to us as one of our friends and neighbors.
Our approach to sales is to treat people with the kind of respect and courtesy that we want when we are customers. You will never feel pressured into making a purchase or directed toward something you do not want. Our focus is always on providing you with the highest level of service and support. That means our friendly salespeople will listen to you and answer all of your questions while our financing experts assist you with figuring out how to get the vehicle you need and stay within your budget. Plus, with our service center and parts department, we will be here for you any time you need maintenance, repairs, or anything else in the years to come.
