Our main salesperson was Kadyn, who took exceptional care of us through the process.

I was incredibly impressed by how the entire sales team stepped in to assist with the nuances of the purchase. Dave, Bill, and Ryan Carlisle (District Manager of OnStar & Loyalty) worked together to get all concerns and hiccups ironed out of the process. Buying an EV can come with some initial challenges of technology, but Champion Chevy went above the call of duty to smooth the bumps. Kadyn was very polite, responsive, and attentive.

Service Advisor
Email:lterrell@avonchevy.com
Recent Customer: The company did a very good job. They kept in touch with what was going on. They got out our warranty. They had the car back to us within four or five days, and did a lot to it. I can't ask for any better. I took the same car to Bill Estes, and it took them 2 1/2 weeks. I used to live in Danville and go there. I live in Carmel, but from now on, I'll be driving back to Avon because they did a great job. I would advise anybody to work with them. Jim helped me out. Luke was the greatest I've ever seen for a guy that young. He did a heck of a job. Recent Customer: As always, I received top notch customer service and communication from the Champion Chevrolet Service Department. Special thanks to the entire team at Champion Chevy!
