Chevy need to be careful with claims like that.

Chevy are running a big marketing push on TV right now about their "head2head" comparisions on Edmunds.com. Apparently they're the "number one brand in America" and they've just slashed up to $3000 off all their models.
So I decided to give it a go. I started with the Chevy Avalanche, which is their version of the Honda Ridgeline. Using the Chevy head2head comparator, the Honda came out on top in all areas - smaller engine, thus better gas mileage. Better warranty. Cheaper price, cheaper delivery charge, better mileage warranty and so on and so forth. So Chevy's big promotion has shown their Avalanche is the worst option for that sort of vehicle. (see here). "This is amusing," I thought, so I decided to press on.
So next I tried the Chevy Cobalt 4 door sedan. Their tool came up with a bunch of competition including the Honda Civic, the Mazda 3, the Toyota Corolla and the Ford Focus. Again, the Chevy product, using their own tool, comes out bottom of the class for price, warranty and overall deal (see here). In this case it's not just Japanese cars but the Ford Focus comes out better - Ford being the big enemy of GM of course.
From this, what I get from the TV advert then is Go to Edmunds.com to see just how terrible Chevy products are compared to everyone else.
