  • The car everyone loves to hate, updated for 1980. This is the dealer "consumer presentation" for the Chevette featuring models, interior, powertrains and options. The "training" video is also found in this playlist, along with the other Chevy passenger cars for '80.

    Ah yes, the standard features we expect, such as: foam seats, carpet, bumper rub strips, and balanced tires. >_>

      In earlier times, inexpensive Chevrolets often had only upholstery directly over coil springs...without foam padding. And chrome bumpers without black rubber strips were typical. Carpeting was often not found in cheaper cars...only a vinyl floor mat. So there is nothing to mock about here.

    When bumper guards and balancing tires are selling points you know you don't have anything special. These were the 1980s :Heart:

    Did anyone buy the door-mounted seat belts while they were an option? They were common later on when the govt allowed them as a way for automakers to cheap out on airbags but in 1980 you either ignored seat belts or wanted ones that weren't so dependent on the door latch holding.

    Our second family car when I was in high school was a 1978 Chevette 4-Door...bright red like the 1980 model shown here. Except the interior on our car was the Custom trim level with white vinyl upholstery/door cards and black accents (carpeting and instrument panel). This 1980 model has the same vaned wheelcovers and sport mirrors, too. Our car also had AC and automatic transmission.

    My father tried to get me to buy one of these for my 1st car. I opted for a Buick LeSabre instead. I wouldn't be caught dead in a Chevette.

    I had two of them. Brakes you had to stand on, over heated it with a broken belt, drove the pos home anyway, steaming like mad, put a new belt on it the next day, and away it went, no issue

    Replacement for Vega, which was also palmed off as advanced design. Chevette was better i think but imports were so far ahead in engineering and durability.

    My parents purchased a new 4-door Chevette in 1980. It was a piece of shit. A comparable Toyota or Honda at the time was far superior.
