No actually a "corvette" is a British fast attack boat. Chevrolet was a french man that saw the fleur de lils (means lilly as in the flower - also the symbol of the Boy Scouts of America) on wallpaper in a hotel room, and he adopted that symbol as his. So it means that Chevrolet, Peugot and Renault are related. (not really - I made up that last part!
