No. 4 Chevrolet: Kevin Harvick

With a successful 5 year run with Budweiser that brought Kevin 17 victories and his first Sprint Cup Series championship, Anheuser-Busch announced mid-season last year that the No. 4 team would be competing with new colors in 2016. This year, you will no longer be looking for that familiar No. 4 Budweiser Chevy. Instead, you will find a blue and white Chevrolet at the front of the field more often than not. That’s right, Kevin Harvick will be racing in the No. 4 Busch Chevrolet in 2016. Busch and Busch Lite beer will be the primary sponsor of the No. 4 team for 12 races in 2016, which happens to be a reduction in the number of races in which Anheuser-Busch will be featured on the car compared to recent years. In addition to the Busch colors, Kevin Harvick will also be piloting the familiar black-and-white “Freaky Fast” Jimmy  John’s Chevrolet for several races in 2016, as well as returning sponsors diTech and Outback Steakhouse which usually sponsor around 2-3 races each season for Harvick. Here’s a look at the new (and familiar) looks for the No. 4 Chevrolet for the 2016 season:
