Cuando se introdujo en los modelos Chevrolet de nivel superior en 1950, el sistema Powerglide se convirtió en la primera transmisión automática ofrecida en un automóvil de gama básica; por el contrario, Ford no ofreció su transmisión automática hasta 1951, mientras que los compradores de automóviles Plymouth tuvieron que esperar hasta 1954. Era una transmisión simple y muy duradera, lo que satisfizo a los clientes. (es)
