B8

The Chevron B8 is a lightweight sports prototype born from the golden era of endurance racing in the late 1960s. Designed by Derek Bennett, the B8 combines graceful, low-slung bodywork with a minimalist tubular space frame, giving it a featherlight chassis that excels in both agility and mechanical grip. Most famously powered by BMW’s 2.0L M10 inline-4 engine, the B8 produces a raw, high-revving soundtrack that complements its precise handling on tight circuits. Despite its modest displacement, the B8 regularly punched above its weight, becoming a favorite among privateers for its reliability, balance, and ease of setup. Today, it stands as a symbol of Chevron’s engineering purity—elegant, purposeful, and fiercely competitive.
