American styling with Chevrolet underpinnings. Built on a Chevrolet
chassis and drivetrain, the Chieftain offers a unique blend of

the classic interior aesthetics while delivering modern climate
control capabilities. A newer bluetooth classic look radio also is
within the original dash layout enhancing driving enjoyment.
