To counter the difference in price. Chevrolet promoted the idea that its cars really were "Superior. " The cost included an electric starter and wood-spoke wheels. Bumpers. though. were optional. Touring cars and roadsters also wore wood-spoke wheels. The new Chevy still rode on a 103-inch wheelbase but was now powered by an improved powerplant.
