Hendrick Motorsports on Tuesday (December 5) revealed a brand-new look of Chase Elliott’s #9 Chevrolet Camaro featuring long-time sponsor NAPA Auto Parts’ paint scheme for most of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season.
Elliott’s #9 car will feature a primarily blue base design, with smaller accents of white and yellow sprinkled throughout the side of the car. The NAPA Auto Parts’ logo is displayed on the hood and both the doors.
NAPA revealed the newly designed paint scheme on X, formerly Twitter, that Elliott will use in 2024. The sponsor announced with an unveiling video posted to X, with a caption:
“The No. 9 Chevy for @chaseelliott rolling in with a fresh look for 2024—a blue beauty #teamNAPA #di9”
The 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season marks the 11th season that NASPA has served as a primary sponsor of Elliott’s ride in NASCAR, dating back to his first season in Xfinity in 2014, where he clinched the championship for JR Motorsports in the #9 Chevy.
The other sponsors of the #9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet team for 2024 are Kelley Blue Book, UniFirst, Coca-Cola, Hooters, and LLumar Window Film.
The 2023 season has not been the best for Chase Elliott, but he will look to start the next season on a good note at the Daytona International Speedway.
It will be a new season with a new paint scheme for the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series champion.
