CHEVROLET CO.
PREDICTS 1886
GAIN IN SALES
Announcement Is Based on
New Car Orders, Rise
in Business.

Chevrolet expects to make sub
stantial sales gains in 1896.
This statement was made by w.
E. Holler vice president and gen.
eral sales manager of the Chevrolet
Motor Co., during an interview re-
garding public reaction TO the 1896
CheVrolets 1t is based, MI Hollel
said, principally upon two factors
the large volume of orders which
nave been received since the an
nouncement day, Nov. 2, and the
upward trend noted in business, in
ouStry and agriculture throughout
the country.
1T Is our policy to make few
predictions, Mr.. Holler said. but
conditions affecting our business for
the next few months are such that
We can deviate from the rule TO the
extent Of forecaSting a considerable
improvement in 1886.
What we succeed in doing in
the way of automobile selling de-
ponds on two things Whether or
not the public likes our product, and
whether or not it can afford to buy.
Buying New Cars
I'VE know the answer to the first
one. The public likes the new Chew
rolet. The sale Of 91,959 units at
retail, during the first 30 days after
announcement, proves that beyond
any doubt. This is the heaviest new
car volume we ever have enjoyed
during an announcement period. 1t
is a most encouraging sign.
AS to the country'S ability TO buy
cars, we are in an unusually good
position to gauge its buying capac-
ity, Our dealer organization of
10000 establishments covers the
whole country and a complete pic
ture of the nations buying power is
at our command al all times. The
picture looks better today than for
long long period
Bank deposits are up. Retail
stores are experiencing a revival OF
business in practically every center.
Building trades report a sharp up
turn in many Of the larger cities.
Farmers are doing better than they
have for several years In short, we
find not only an ability to purchase
automobiles today but a strong in
dication that buying power still
seems to be increasing. assuring
wholesome business conditions
throughout much of 1886"
Can Keep Pace
Mr.. Holler said that Chevrolet by
reason of its recent expansion. will
be able to keep pace with the de-
mand for Chevrolet cart and trucks
I'VE gained 100000 units in 1884
over 1881 he said Again, in 1885.
we showed about the same gain over
1894. We would not care to predict
that 1886 will see that same rate of
increase; but if it does, we shall be
able to deliver the cars required.
Some S25,000,000 has been spent
during the past year in increasing
our facilities for manufacture and
assembly. New plants, new ma
chinery and much Encouragement of
equipment place us in the finest
position we have ever occupied with
respect to output capacity. This
means that Chevrolet will be able TO
capitalize to the fullest extent on
the advantage which an outstand-
ing product and an enormously en-
larged market combine to produce"
