Chevy Auto Booth Showcasing ‘Transformers’

That sweet looking car you see above is the new Stingray Corvette Concept, which will be playing the character of Sideswipe in the upcoming ‘Transformer: Revenge of the Fallen’.

In fact, the Chevy booth at the Chicago AutoShow this weekend is going to be devoted to the characters from the film.   Dubbed “Autobots With Bow Ties” (referring to Chevy’s logo), the booth will include the production version of the 2010 Camaro as Bumblebee; the all-electric Volt, bowing in 2011, as Jolt; and small car concepts the Beat (to go into production as the Spark in 2011) and Trax as the twins Skids and Mudflap.

“Chevrolet is thrilled to again be part of one of the most anticipated movies in years,” said Ed Peper, GM North America vice president, Chevrolet. “‘Transformers’ gives us a great opportunity to connect with young people on their terms, with a dynamic, environmentally friendly image. The new characters represent the change going on in Chevy showrooms. From the exciting Camaro, the 21st century sports car, to the game-changing Volt, there’s more than meets the eye at Chevrolet today.”

“‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ goes way beyond the first film in terms of robot action and excitement,” said LeeAnne Stables, executive vice president of worldwide marketing partnerships at Paramount Pictures, the distributor of the film. “The new AUTOBOTS add to the storytelling, and these Chevy vehicles went with our filmmakers to locations all around the world. GM has again provided incredible support to the production team working on the movie.”
