^ That's my only concern with the ad, as there are enough dumbasses in America to jump to that idiotic conclusion and denounce all things "electric."
Actually, let them, they probably wouldn't last very long.
Clearly green is part of the gay agenda
, we wear green on Thursdays after all.

Pretty sure you signaled you're a cow, not a queer. Better get that fixed before they're leaving you salt licks and hay bales.

I think it's kinda rare for big companies to take a stance on a "controversial" topic like this (which, sadly shouldn't really be a "controversial" topic in the first place).
I would think this would be a terrible ad in terms of business since taking a stance like this would push away religious bigots and single-minded stubborn assholes from ever buying their cars (and I assume there are a lot of them). I can imagine some internal struggles going on at Chevrolet... but then again in this day and age, if you want to feed your family and keep your job... it's probably a good idea to shut up.
Although the ad is a bit dry, the tiny caption at the bottom put a smile on my face. Let's hope more companies continue to follow this example.
PS: Who thinks it's ironic that the Chevrolet symbol is a cross?
