Did they sell the Chevy SS in Canada?

No, the Chevrolet SS was not officially sold in Canada. The Chevy SS was a high-performance, rear-wheel-drive sedan that was only available in the United States from 2013 to 2017.


Detailed Explanation


The Chevrolet SS was a performance-oriented, full-size sedan that was produced by General Motors as a successor to the Pontiac G8. It was powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine and featured a rear-wheel-drive layout, making it a unique offering in the Chevrolet lineup at the time.


While the Chevy SS was sold in the United States, it was never officially offered for sale in Canada. This was likely due to a combination of factors, including:



  • Lower anticipated demand for a high-performance, rear-wheel-drive sedan in the Canadian market

  • Concerns about the potential impact on sales of other Chevrolet models in Canada

  • Logistical and regulatory challenges in bringing the Chevy SS to the Canadian market


As a result, Canadian consumers who wanted to purchase a Chevy SS had to either import the vehicle from the United States or look for used models that were brought across the border. This limited the availability and accessibility of the Chevy SS in Canada during its production run.
