Karl Chevrolet
Opened in 1978 in downtown Ankeny, Karl Chevrolet is a full-service Chevrolet dealership with more than 300 employees. Over the years Karl Chevrolet has grown considerably in the central Iowa community, and today is one of the top Chevrolet dealers the country. From being in the top ten nationally in new car sales and the top GM Certified Pre-Owned dealer in the country to having more GM World Class Service Technicians than any GM dealer around, owner Carl Moyer has guided the growth of his dealership with one thing in mind – making lifelong customers.

From its 30-acre lot on the corner of one of the main intersections in town, Karl Chevrolet has seen the continued expansion of Ankeny.

"Seeing first-hand the growth of Ankeny and being a part of that growth myself is just phenomenal," said Moyer. "I went from having a few cars and just me to sell them in 1978, to today having the largest selection of vehicles in the entire Midwest – right here in Ankeny."
