Chevrolet is an unincorporated community in Harlan County, Kentucky.

A post office called Chevrolet was established in 1918, and remained in operation until 1992. The community was named after the Chevrolet Series 490, the first car seen on local roads.
A 1935 newspaper account reported the town had 800 inhabitants, and about 60 cars, 30 of which were Chevrolets.
The Chevrolet Four Ninety was produced from 1915 to 1922 by Chevrolet. Introduced in June 1915, the 490 sold for $490.
