By the early '80s, a more developed ABS-2 was available and, around the same time, Bosch and Chevrolet were negotiating the use of Bosch fuel injection parts on Corvette and Camaro for model year 1985 (MY85). During those meetings, Bosch pitched ABS-2 to the Bow-Tie guys.
Paul King, Chevy's Engineering Director at the time, eventually decided all '86 Corvettes would have ABS, making them the first cars in North America to have four-wheel, antilock brakes and one of only two brands in the world at the time to have them as standard equipment.
