Later, between 20, Chevrolet abandoned again the circle frame and the flagpoles, and used well-defined lines and a more modern design. In 1997, the fleur-de-lis was brought back once again, and it was placed on the right side, positioned on the red flag together with the iconic Chevy bowtie. Meanwhile, the Chevrolet bowtie ended up on the right side. The fleur-de-lis also disappeared, and the checkered flag switched position, ending up on the left side. For this logo, Chevy dropped the circle and emphasized the two flags.įrom the early 1980s all the way to 1996, Chevrolet used the circular frame around the flags, but it eliminated the flag poles.

Later on, Chevrolet released a new badge for the Corvette, which was used for the Mako Shark. In addition, the American automotive company got rid of the words Chevrolet and Corvette. For instance, during the first round of alterations, Chevy only enlarged the two flags and eliminated the white background. In contrast to other car manufacturers, Chevy didn’t alter Corvette's logo substantially, as there were only some minor changes made over the years.
