JOHN BUTTERMORE
LEAD DEVELOPMENT ENGINEER
When Lead Development Engineer John Buttermore gets behind the wheel
of a Corvette, he’s bringing years of track experience into every curve and
straightaway. So it came as no surprise that Buttermore would channel the
same passion into developing the all-new Sonic.
Road racing has been a hobby for years, and our team expends a lot
of effort tuning our Corvette to get the best performance. Working on
Sonic is no different. You have a set of components and you do your best
to maximize their performance.
As part of a group of engineers that drove cross-country to test the
sedan and hatchback, Buttermore saw his share of challenges: “Whether
its coming down or climbing those twisting mountain roads, Sonic was
planted, secure. When you’re driving down roads with no guardrail on
the side, its good to have a car thats confident, responsive and just very
rewarding to drive.
If Buttermore could describe Sonic in one word, it would be “fun.
We have a lot of selling points on safety and fuel economy,
2
which are
sensible reasons to own a car, but at the end of the day, you spend a lot
of time in your car. We want everyone to enjoy that time. And fun is the
best way to describe that feeling.
Its been a long road, but this is one launch Buttermore is really looking
forward to. “Whats rewarding about doing this is seeing all the triumphs,
all the effort that goes into developing a vehicle and then seeing it all come
together. We were very confident that these cars would perform well and
they did. But whats more rewarding is seeing it in person. You come with
high expectations and then you get to look at what the cars can do, and
point and say, ‘We did that.’ Theres nothing like it.
