Detailed Description
Americas First Sports Utility Vehicle
1955 Chevrolet Nomad

Crowd Reaction Makes a Dream Car Come True
Chevrolet had a treat for the more then 2 million Americans who attended General Motors “Motorama” in 1954. This treat was a “dream” concept car, the Corvette Nomad, the first 2-door stylish station wagon ever shown to the public. Harley Earl, Chevrolets Head of Styling, was so overwhelmed by the positive reaction to this vehicle that he immediately had his designers convert the design to a Chevrolet for 1955. Designed by Carl Renner, the 1955 Chevrolet Nomad was Americas first Sports Utility Vehicle. Like todays SUVs, it combined youthful pizzazz and upscale appearance with utility both for passengers and cargo. With design features like the front end “eyebrow” headlights and chrome fender and door spears, it is no surprise that Motor Trend picked it as one of the years most beautiful cars and the Milestone Car Society has selected it as one of the Certified Milestone Cars of the post-war era.
