Arrow McLaren announced Oct. 6 a multiyear extension with Chevrolet as its engine manufacturer, reaffirming the organizations’ longstanding technical partnership as the NTT INDYCAR SERIES prepares for its next era of innovation.

The extension comes at a pivotal moment for both Arrow McLaren and Chevrolet as the series completes early testing phases for the new Dallara IR-28 chassis set to debut in 2028 competition. The next generation platform will introduce improved aerodynamic architecture, an upgraded power-to-weight ratio, new wing packages designed for better racing and overall improved safety systems — all areas where early manufacturer involvement is essential.

"Our extension with Chevrolet is key to our overall goal of winning both the INDYCAR championship and the Indy 500,” McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown said. “Over the past seven seasons, the team and Chevy have been working closely together through various developments, and the work now ahead of us with the 2028 chassis will be critical in determining our competitiveness. Mark Reuss, Eric Warren, Jim Campbell and everyone across the Chevy and GM organization are committed to executing at the highest level and share our absolute focus on winning. I’m excited for what’s to come with this strengthened relationship."

Since McLaren Racing entered the series full time in 2020 with Schmidt Peterson Motorsports to become Arrow McLaren SP, the Arrow McLaren and Chevrolet collaboration has achieved 14 Chevy-powered wins, 54 podiums and 13 NTT P1 Awards. Chevy also secured three consecutive Manufacturers’ Championships from 2022-24.

“Arrow McLaren has been an important part of Chevrolet’s INDYCAR program, and this extension reflects the strength of the technical relationship we’ve built together,” said Eric Warren, General Motors vice president of global motorsports competition. “As the series moves toward the next generation of car and powertrain development, close collaboration between our engineers will be critical. We continue to share a clear objective with Arrow McLaren: to keep raising the performance of the Chevrolet package and compete for wins, championships and the Indianapolis 500."
