“We have great partners in Chip Ganassi Racing and Jimmie
Johnson,” said Carvana Chief Brand Officer Ryan Keeton. “Jimmie had
ideas we implemented into the final paint scheme, and it’s
something we’re really proud of, not only for the aesthetics, but
also the collaborative approach to design.”

"I'm really excited about this paint scheme and over the last
few years of my career I've found myself much more involved with
the look of the cars that I drive, and I was very thankful Carvana
gave me the opportunity to be involved in the design process of my
very first Indy car,” said Jimmie Johnson. “The collaboration
between myself, Chip Ganassi Racing, Carvana and the design group
was a lot of fun - we came up with many, many good ideas. So I'm
very excited about our primary paint scheme, and also excited about
some opportunities we might have in the future to mix things up and
keep things fresh."
When Johnson isn’t in the driver’s seat for the road and street
circuits, NTT INDYCAR SERIES veteran Tony Kanaan will pilot the No.
48 Honda on the oval tracks, including the Indianapolis 500.
