Chevrolet Nova

The Nova was a sedan marketed by Chevrolet from the sixties to eighties. It is an urban legend that the Nova was never marketed in Mexico because "no va" means "it does not go" in Spanish. In fact, the word for nova (as in the type of star) in Spanish is "nova".

Motorsport
The Nova competed alongside the Chevrolet Camaro and Chevrolet Corvair in the Trans Am Series.
