  • In 1985, Iacocca was honored with the S. Roger Horchow Award for Greatest Public Service by a Private Citizen.

  • In 1999, Iacocca became the head of the electric bike company EV Global Motors.

  • In 2005, Iacocca was appointed as Chrysler's pitchman and coined the phrase, “If you can find a better car, buy it.”
