Chevrolet is a proud partner of the National Aquarium and supports the Aquarium's conservation efforts such as the Marine Animal Rescue Program. Together, the National Aquarium and Chevrolet will inspire people to enjoy, respect, and protect the aquatic world.
About the Partnership
Chevrolet and the National Aquarium share the goal of inspiring individuals to make thoughtful choices that ensure healthier oceans and waterways for our community and around the world. Chevrolet's "gas-friendly to gas-free" campaign raises awareness of our need to become less dependant on oil while providing vehicle options everyone can take advantage of to live more eco-friendly lives.
As part of Chevrolet's exclusive vehicle partnership with the National Aquarium, Chevrolet is providing a Silverado hybrid for the Aquarium's Marine Animal Rescue Program (MARP). This vehicle allows our team to help save seriously ill animals, as well as fuel!
"Our rescue team responds to animal strandings all over the state of Maryland, which includes nearly 7,000 miles of shoreline. Our Silverado hybrid allows us to fulfill a dual mission of rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing sick and stranded animals, while maximizing fuel efficiency and minimizing our environmental impact. It's a win-win scenario for our team." —Jennifer Dittmar, MARP Stranding Coordinator

About Chevrolet
Making a difference in our environment starts with driving a more fuel-efficient vehicle. That's why Chevrolet offers advanced technologies like Variable Valve Timing, six-speed transmissions and Active Fuel Management to make the vehicles as efficient as possible. Chevrolet offers 11 models with 30 MPG highway or better 1.
Chevrolet offers hybrids that fit the way you live.
Hybrid technology has come a long way since the first model was introduced. The latest incarnations, full-sized trucks and SUVs, like the Chevrolet Tahoe hybrid (at participating dealers) and Silverado hybrid (limited availability) just happen to have the same city fuel economy as a VW Beetle 2. This is a result of Chevrolet engineers meticulously designing every hybrid to perform at the highest level possible. The two-mode hybrid technology delivers the best performance and efficiency Chevrolet has to offer in a hybrid vehicle.
