PEDIGREE
Looking at the new Chevrolet Super Sport Roadster, it's quickly deduced that its substantial body is a product of pedigreed style. No other vehicle manufactured by General Motors in the past 30 years has utilized elements from Chevrolet's past like the SSR, with a combination. of the styling of a roadster, the attitude and performance of a sports car and the functionality of a pickup truck. Yet the all-Chevy heritage-based SSR, with its powerful V-8 and rear-wheel drive, is beyond categorization. Drawing from its late-forties Advanced Design pickup pedigree, the SSR stands out with compelling styling cues and mold-breaking technology, a pairing of design and engineering that has become a classification unto itself.
PERFORMANCE
Driving the new SSR leaves no doubt about the SSR's ability to live up to its unspoken promises evident in its aggressive stance and throaty exhaust note. Decades of Chevrolet power tuning are unleashed in the SSR's take-no-prisoners performance of its 6.0-liter V-8. The high-output engine, longitudinally mounted, gives power to the rear wheels, equating to towing ability as well as exceptional handling and ride, enhanced by top-rated performance tires. It's about cruising with the top down. It's about hauling or towing. It's about any aspect of performance the driver desires.
PURE FUN
Put pedigree and performance together and the result is the perfect combination of pickup utility and sports roadster excitement. It's found in the SSR.
