2018 Chevrolet Cruze Inventory Contact In the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze, everything from grocery junkets to weekend getaways just got a little more luxurious and, perhaps more importantly, fuel-efficient. Why Buy the Chevrolet Cruze? If you're a busy parent with errands - and maybe even a business - to run, you can't go wrong with the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze. That's also true if you've got a major commute on your hands. With its roomy cabin and premium fuel economy ratings, this world-class compact has widespread appeal. Choose the new turbocharged diesel engine and you'll enjoy up to 30 city/52 highway mpg. Money saving doesn't mean corner cutting. As the Cruze saves you money on your commute, you'll also enjoy a roomy, attractive cabin. Both the sedan and hatchback models deliver the head and leg room that families require - front and back. Are Chevrolet Cruzes Good Cars? The 2018 Chevrolet Cruze is committed to delivering a smooth, dependable performance. If that sounds like something that's up your alley, you'll also enjoy its money saving fuel economy. While the standard Cruze sedan is impressive, you can also opt for a Cruze sedan with a diesel engine, which earns 31 city/47 highway mpg paired with an automatic transmission. This option is an excellent choice for anyone with a long ride to work. More than reliability, though, the Cruze is known for its classy cabin, topping competitors with high-quality materials and an upscale two-tone color scheme. Just because you want something practical, that doesn't mean you need to sacrifice comfort or sophistication--and Chevy understands this. The Cruze offers luxurious options, including leather upholstery to cozy, winter-ready heated seats. Are Chevy Cruzes AWD? As with its predecessors, all 2018 Chevrolet Cruze powertrain options send power to the front wheels. Unfortunately, neither the sedan or hatchback model offers all-wheel drive. However, this compact comes standard with four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and stability control - technology that helps you maintain control in the face of bad weather. All models come with OnStar emergency telematics as well, and, with features like automatic collision notification and on-demand roadside assistance, this technology will help put your mind at ease as you make your way through crowded highways with a cabin full of kids. What Is the Chevrolet Cruze's Towing Capacity? Straight off the dealership lot, the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze is not equipped to tow anything. However, if you add special aftermarket wiring and trailer hitch equipment, the Cruze can tow up to 1,000 pounds. For a compact car, that's a pretty impressive haul. Use your specially equipped Cruze sedan or hatchback to tow light watercraft or four-wheelers to your favorite outdoor hotspot.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Inventory Contact Did you know the most reliable pickup truck also has the best fuel economy and great handling? Why Buy a 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD? The Silverado's claim to fame is its durability. The Silverado 2500 isn't the flashiest or even strongest truck on the market, but it lasts year after year. Chevrolet has a fiercely loyal group of truck enthusiasts who keep returning to this model whenever the one in their driveway has finally handled its last payload. Other benefits of a 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD include fuel economy at the top of its class, a powerful diesel engine, and surprising handling and agility. The rear-wheel drive Silverado gets 18 city and 24 highway miles. That's comparable to the gas mileage on sports cars, minivans, and jeeps, not other pickup trucks. That's coming from a brawny V-8 engine that can be upgraded to the Duramax diesel. With all that power, the Silverado still has responsive steering, a quiet and comfortable cabin, and unbeatable acceleration. Which Chevy Silverado 2500 Should I Buy? The Silverado 2500HD has four models and three cab configurations. To figure out which to get, ask yourself how important interior features are to you. The base trim WT (work truck) is perfectly serviceable but, while comfortable, doesn't have many tech features beyond AC, AM/FM radio, and a rearview camera. The LT adds satellite radio, keyless entry, and heated mirrors. The LTZ replaces cloth seats with leather and adds fog lights, heated seats, and dual-zone air conditioning. The top trim, High Country, gives you navigation and parking assist. You can get, in order of size, regular cab, double cab, or crew cab, depending on how much cabin room you want for passengers or interior cargo space. Your decision depends on what matters most to you and, of course, what you'll be using your truck for most often. At Burlington Chevrolet, we can help you decide which trim will work best for your needs. What's the Towing Capacity of a Chevrolet Silverado 2500? The Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD tows up to 14,500 pounds. That's more than enough for large recreational boats and nearly any camping trailer. If you need more towing capacity, consider the Silverado 3500HD that musters 23,000 pounds of towing capacity when properly configured. Is the Chevy Silverado 2500 a Good Truck? The Silverado has the best of both worlds. Like a stern grandparent, its outside is rugged but inside is a heart of gold. You'll love the no nonsense, boxy exterior and the beefy engine under the hood. But step inside and you'll find a cabin that wants to spoil you with creature comforts.

2018 Chevrolet Trax Inventory Contact A miniature SUV with all the tech you might need. Standard. Why Buy a 2018 Chevrolet Trax? The Trax is a subcompact SUV that turns on a dime and sports tons of tech features that all come standard. Looking very much like an infant SUV with wide hips, the Trax's small wheels have a surprising turn radius. Swoop in and back out of tight parking spots with ease, turn corners downtown with next to no body roll, and climb switchbacks like a pro. The performance isn't anything to write home about, but the handling makes you feel like you're driving a much smaller vehicle. Do you like a vehicle loaded with the latest technology? How about Wi-Fi hotspot? On the Trax, it comes standard. Do you want a responsive, easily-navigable infotainment system on a large display? Standard. Keyless entry? Standard. Rearview camera? Standard. Bluetooth? Android Auto? Apple CarPlay? All standard. These features will keep your crew of five connected and content no matter the congestion. Which Chevy Trax Should I Buy? The 2018 Chevrolet Trax has three trims: LS, LT, and Premier. The primary difference is technology and interior swag. Even the base trim has plenty of tech features that almost never come standard on other models. But we recommend the LT trim, which, for a small step up in price, adds remote start, satellite radio and the option to throw in a package or two with features like leatherette upholstery, additional safety features, or a sunroof. The Premier trim adds all the bells and whistles of lower trims and all packages. It includes every available safety feature, leatherette upholstery, heated front seats, and a Bose audio system.The major advantage of any Chevrolet Trax is its perfect five-star government crash rating. Grab some of the optional active safety features on the upper trims and you will feel confident in the safety of your SUV, which should give you some peace of mind as you strap in the little ones. Are Chevrolet Trax 4-Wheel Drive? Front-wheel drive comes standard on the 2018 Chevrolet Trax. If you want superior traction at the expense of a heavier SUV, all-wheel drive is optional on any trim for $1,500 more. What is the Chevrolet Trax's Towing Capacity? The owner's manual actually warns you not to use the Chevy Trax for towing a trailer. It just wasn't designed for towing. If you want an SUV to which you can attack a trailer, consider the Chevrolet Tahoe that can tow 6,600 pounds or 8,600 with the trailer package.

2018 Chevrolet Tahoe Inventory Contact Haul the soccer team and keep them entertained in this full-size SUV that won't disappoint. Why Buy a 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe? If you need to haul a soccer-team-sized group from here to there, the Chevy Tahoe has you covered. With seating for at least seven, you'll rise above the concrete canopy on your lofty perch. Since you're considering a full-size sport utility vehicle, you probably don't want to be a wilting flower. You want the power and handling of an urban explorer and the Tahoe delivers. It's strong enough to road trip to the hills but easy enough to navigate a grocery store parking lot. Inside you'll find a cavernous, comfortable space for you and all your followers. Because its seating doesn't fold down flat, the Tahoe isn't great for cargo space. But the Tahoe does what it was built to do: be passenger-friendly. With the all-bench seats option, you can fit up to nine passengers inside. Drivers will be thrilled to find an intuitive and responsive infotainment system in the Chevy MyLink, a Wi-Fi hotspot, a 10-speaker surround system, and wireless smartphone charging. The Tahoe is a hotbed of wireless connection and entertainment, making even the most congested commute or longest road trip bearable for all involved. Is the Chevy Tahoe Reliable? Last year, JD Power and Associates rated the Chevy Tahoe as better than most in reliability. That puts it above or on par with every full-size SUV except the Ford Expedition. How Much Can the Chevy Tahoe Tow? If you really want to put the tow in Tahoe, consider the Tahoe Custom, which is ideal for boating, camping, or off-roading. This trime loses the third row of seats and a lot of the tech features, in exchange for a cheaper, lighter, and more outdoorsy Tahoe. The Custom's towing capacity is 6,600 pounds (or 8,600 with the optional trailer package), more than capable of hauling a few ATVs or a waterski boat. Are the Chevrolet Tahoe and the GMC Yukon the Same? These two full-size SUVs certainly have many similar features and seat the same number of passengers, which makes sense since they're built on the same platform. But they target different customers and their features show it. The Yukon is pricier and is marketed as a more upscale option. As a result, its cabin is more luxurious, with premium wood grain trim and soft-touch materials. The Yukon offers a more powerful engine option as well. Still, the Tahoe has a better infotainment system, better reliability score, and a surprising amount of tech for its price tag. The decision is up to you, but in our opinion, the Chevy Tahoe gives you more bang for your buck.

2018 Chevrolet Suburban Inventory Contact Whether you are hauling the whole band's equipment to the gig or the entire basket ball team to the game, the Chevrolet Suburban has your back. Why Should I Buy the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban? Chevrolet Suburbans are one of the best-selling full-size SUVs in the country, and it is easy to see why. If you are looking for a versatile, spacious vehicle that also has style, the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban could be the perfect fit for you. The 2018 model is sleeker than ever, with a modern exterior design that's easy on the eyes. This SUV is not the Suburban of the past--the 2018 combines the spacious utility of a truck with the versatile comfort of an SUV. Seating 7 or 8, depending on configuration, the Suburban is a full-size SUV is perfect for families who need extra seats or just extra room to spread out or haul life's large cargo. The towing capacity on a basic model is around 6,000 lbs, which is likely enough to handle what life throws at you. The 2018 models comes with best-in-class fuel economy with a 22 mpg rating on the highway. Convenience features make the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban a good choice for on-the-go drivers who want simplicity and flexibility. The first area you see this is in the cargo capacity. Need more room to haul larger-than-expected items? No problem--the seats can be easily put down on the second and third row using power-folding technology to expand the cargo section. Since most drivers want to stay safely connected, even on the go, the touchscreen display is bound to be a hit. Equipped with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, the system allows easy access to texts, phone calls, podcasts, and whatever else you might want to access while on the road. Bonus? You won't have to take your phone or other device with you on short trips out of the car, since the Suburban offers a hidden, lockable compartment on the dashboard with a convenient USB port. Do Chevy Suburbans Have Wi-Fi? The 2018 Chevy Suburban is equipped with many modern features to make your life easier, including the optional 4G LTE Wi-Fi from OnStar. Not available on all vehicles, this feature creates a hot spot in your vehicle, allowing passengers to use your data plan and not their own. It can also make working on the go much easier, without the worry of toting your cell plan's hot spot equipment with you. Is the Chevy Suburban 4x4? The 2018 Chevy Suburban does not come with a 4-wheel drive option. The standard option for this model is rear-wheel drive, but that seems to be powerful enough for most drivers. The Suburban does offer 355 horsepower and a towing capacity of up to 8,300 lbs when the max trailering package is added. Are Chevy Suburbans Reliable? Reliability has not always been the Suburban's strong suit--2017 models got below average ratings. Some of that is the nature of the full-size SUV market--vehicles this large meet specific needs that something like a mid-size sedan can't. That said, we are impressed by Chevrolet's class-leading fuel efficiency numbers, especially given the size of the SUV--these numbers are better than some minivans, which is surprising. We're also impressed by the smaller details, like triple-sealed doors, that speak to the care and quality of Chevrolet's flagship SUV. We'll have to wait and see how the 2018 model performs, but we're confident that buyers in the market for a full-size SUV will find the Chevy Suburban meets their needs.

2018 Chevrolet Malibu Inventory Contact The Malibu is a safe, affordable, reliable, family-friendly car with plenty of cool add-ons. Why Should I Buy the 2018 Chevrolet Malibu? Known as a dependable family car, the Malibu has great fuel economy, a spacious backseat, and excellent crash test ratings. The Malibu is a traditional four-door sedan, currently in its ninth generation and with over 10 million sold over the history of its line. Relatively lightweight and boasting new fuel injector technology, the car runs 27/36 mpg, one of the best averages for its size. For a little more money, the new hybrid option easily beats out competitors in fuel efficiency. The 2018 Malibu has changed its design very little over previous years', except for its larger fuel tank that will keep drivers on the road even longer. The cabin is spacious and comfortably seats five, though the trunk may not hold larger suitcases. The Malibu earned a perfect rating on its crash and safety tests, making it one of the safest cars to drive. The Malibu is one of the most affordable cars in its class, but owners might want to spring for more. While the base car has few coveted features, for as little as $1500 more, owners get an infotainment system, smartphone integration, Wi-Fi hotspot, and more to keep passengers entertained on the road. In addition, parents will appreciate the new teen driver feature that allows them to actually see their kids' driving stats. How Does the Malibu Rate? While it may not be the absolute best midsize car that money can buy, the Malibu is probably the most bang for your buck in its class. The 2018 Ford Fusion, for example, may perform better and hold more but in terms of safety, reliability, and affordability, the Malibu has it beat. Those looking for a sportier option may want a Fusion, Camry, or Optima, but the Malibu beats them in most other categories that count. Is the Malibu All-Wheel Drive? No. Since the model's relaunch in 1997, the Malibu has strictly been a front-wheel drive sedan. In fact, not one of the midsize cars in Chevrolet's popular lineup offers all-wheel drive. Buyers looking for AWD options should like at Chevy's sport utility vehicle options, such as the Traverse, or look at sedan competitors with an AWD option, like the Ford Fusion or Subaru Legacy. How do Malibus Hold Up? One advantage to changing little in the last two years is being able to judge the 2018 by looking at previous years' models. The Malibu ninth generation is holding up well and earned a "Better than Most" score from JD Power in predicted reliability. In addition, 2016 and 2017 Malibus are reselling very near their MSRP. To top it off, new Malibus come with a three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Malibus are one of the most reliable four-door sedans.

2018 Chevrolet Corvette Inventory Contact Now in its 65th year, the wickedly fun Corvette won't be retiring anytime soon. Why Buy a 2018 Chevrolet Corvette? There are really only two reasons to buy a 2018 Corvette: fulfilling your need for speed and owning a car with looks to match that kind of performance. With 455 horsepower and 460 torque, the Corvette goes 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds and viciously hugs the turns. All that speed would be squandered if it had poor handling and braking. But have no fear: the 2018 Corvette is responsive to the touch at the wheel and underfoot, steering and stopping with catlike agility. The 2018 Chevrolet Corvette looks nothing like its age. It has a svelte yet commanding presence on the road that'll turn heads almost as fast as it turns corners. The Corvette's low grille, narrow headlights, and side vents all scream power. All 2018 Corvettes can put the top down, with a conventional convertible or a coupe with a removable carbon-fiber roof. A lucky 650 buyers can own the limited-run Corvette Carbon 65, with a new carbon-fiber rear spoiler and quarter ducts and Ceramic Matrix Gray exterior paint. Is the Corvette a Muscle Car? If you define muscle car as a small car with a large, powerful engine, then yes! The Corvette has an 6.2-liter, eight-cylinder engine that supplies all the power you might need. And we don't mean to say that the Corvette is by any means small for its class. It's longer and wider than most two-seaters, lending it that imposing presence. Which is the Fastest Corvette? Without a doubt, the fastest Corvette is the upcoming 2019 Corvette ZR1 with top speeds of over 210 miles per hour. That's more speed than you'll likely ever (legally) need. You just have to wait until next spring for that model to start hitting dealerships. Coming in just below the ZR1 is the Z06, which can easily do 200 miles per hour. If you can't wait until 2019, and we can't blame you, the Z06 will in no way feel like settling. What is the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1? Critics are hailing the 2018 Corvette ZR1, a premium trim of the popular model, as the best ‘Vette ever. What makes it so good? How about 750 horsepower? Or some serious hardware, like an adjustable spoiler wide enough to do some ironing on? The ZR1 hasn't yet officially debuted so what we know is still rumor, but we do know it'll be fast, it'll be powerful, and, if leaked video is to be believed, it'll be loud.

2019 Black Widow Trucks Reviewed Inventory They’re custom-built to provide both an extra 6 inches of lift and customized comfort, but Black Widow trucks also loudly announce their presence with stunning style upgrades. Start with a regular Chevy truck – already handsome and rugged – and add the Black Widow lifted truck package, and envious drivers will see you coming a long way off. When it’s built on the sturdy Chevrolet Silverado 1500 chassis, the Black Widow package performance gear takes this truck to new heights – literally. The aesthetic customization is the icing on this rugged cake, leaving your Silverado 1500 both more capable and stylish than before. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 The newly redesigned 2019 Silverado 1500 is a full-size truck that punches in with eight available trim levels and a variety of body style configurations. The new trim levels are: the base Work Truck (WT), Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, LTZ, and High Country. As you make your way up that list, you’ll longer lists of performance and comfort features. The options don’t end there, either. Choose from three cab styles – the two-door regular cab, four-door extended Double cab, and spacious crew cab – to create the truck that best fits your crew size. (Though the regular cab is only available as the entry-level Work Truck trim.) The Black Widow package replaces the Silverado 1500’s steel or alloy wheels with bold, 20-inch custom black wheels. It also adds to the Silverado’s rugged stance with 35-inch BF Goodrich AT KO2 tires and red brake caliper covers. Combined with the Silverado’s modern features – like standard air conditioning, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment interface, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration – your Black Widow lifted truck will hit the road with everything you need to turn heads and get through a long drive in style. Chevy Silverado Black Widow Performance When you purchase your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, you can customize performance by choosing from four engines with a range of capabilities. The WT, Custom, and Custom Trail Boss come standard with a 4.3-liter V6 engine rated for 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque. Upgrade to the LT or RST for the turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Besides being the Silverado’s thriftiest ride to work, the turbo four-cylinder makes 310 horsepower and 348 pound-feet of torque to underscore your off-road confidence. In the LT Trail Boss and up, you’ll find a 5.3-liter V8 engine that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque for serious adventure. Finally, LTZ and High Country drivers have the option of adding the 6.2-liter V8 engine. This is the Silverado 1500’s golden ticket, taking performance to the limits with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Black Widow Interior Keeping with the Black Widow theme, the package’s interior customization supplies extra blackout style. Fans of the brand will recognize the Black Widow custom-stitched headrests and bold red speedometer gauges. The black interior trim and tinted windows add to the overall style. The red interior LED lighting puts the finishing touches on the cabin’s dark, sultry look. The Silverado 1500’s solid build and high-quality cabin materials underscore the Black Widow add-ons to make a functional, comfortable daily driver. If you’ve got a serious commute on your hands, you’ll be pleased with seating comfort and support. Upscale options, like heated and ventilated seats with adjustable lumbar support, are your best friend in a traffic jam. Whatever Silverado cabin option is your cup of tea, you can count on generous head and legroom for all shapes and sizes. Chevrolet Black Widow Exterior Black Widow lifted trucks come standard with wheel-to-wheel sidesteps, SCA pocket-style fender flares, and SCA Chevy hood vents, making them pretty hard to miss. The premium exterior Black Widow badging is another nice touch. One quick glance at those badges tells envious drivers everything they need to know. This year, the Black Widow package has four paint scheme options: full matte, fade, “hi-hat,” and upper two-tone. That leaves a lot of style leeway for drivers, and it also means that no two Black Widow lifted trucks will be exactly the same. Driving Impressions The Chevrolet Black Widow lifted truck towers over other drivers, and it’s as capable as it is tall. Acceleration and off-road performance vary according to engine selection, but all powertrain options are quick to respond to your input. Thanks to the Black Widow’s six-inch suspension lift, drivers have space to navigate rugged trails without pinging the undercarriage. And don’t forget that the Black Widow package includes 20-inch wheels and 35-inch BF Goodrich AT KO2 tires are there to stabilize performance.

Inventory Contact The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is one more in a long line of successful, competitive, and impressive full-size truck options from Chevrolet. Last updated in 2014, the Chevy Silverado 1500 builds on that legacy of durability and capability with all the strength, power, and cutting-edge technology you'd expect in this class. Though a complete redesign is expected next year, this 2018 Chevy truck is definitely built tough. 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Generally speaking, we like our full-size trucks to look pretty much how we expect full-size trucks to look, so only an extremely brave manufacturer would mess around with what is so obviously a winning formula. The Silverado exterior is therefore unashamedly tall and blunt with a good deal of inspiration coming from Chevy's heavy-duty trucks. The result is an unapologetically aggressive design that becomes even more imposing and pronounced with the special edition options that Chevy loves. The high shoulders and squared-off appearance are razor-sharp, and squared-off wheel wells complete the look in true domestic pickup truck style. Even with what appears to be a brick-in-the-wind kind of design, the current 1500 is more aerodynamic than previous versions, and active grille shutters for smoothing airflow across the front provide further help in maximizing fuel economy. The eight different trim levels of Silverado 1500 are going to stay as they are for 2018. The lineup will therefore start with the Custom, and from there go onwards through WT, LS, LT, LT Z71, LTZ and LTZ Z71, and then top off with the outstanding High Country. From there, you can configure your Chevy in five more ways: as a Regular Cab with a standard or a long box, as a Double Cab with a standard box, or as a Crew Cab a short box or a standard box. Of course, rear-wheel drive is standard, while four-wheel drive is an available option. You can choose between three engine options with the 2018 Silverado 1500, one V-6 and a couple of V-8 units. The standard powerplant is a 4.3-liter EcoTec V-6 that puts out 285 horsepower and 305 lb.-ft. of torque. The first of the V-8s is a 5.3-liter EcoTec that ups the power ante to 355 horsepower and 383 lb.-ft., while the most powerful Silverado 1500s have a 6.2-liter EcoTec V-8 that gets you 420 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft. of torque to work with. Silverado 1500 Redline The first ever Silverado Redline Edition is an extremely attractive model with red and black accents and an urban-inspired design that brings a whole new level of cool to the Silverado. The sinister Midnight Edition is another favorite we can't ignore, and the sporty Rally 1 and Rally 2 versions of the Silverado also tempt us. Last but not least is the High Desert Package, which balances refinement and sportiness by bringing innovative capabilities to the Silverado lineup. Conclusion Inventory Contact

Inventory Contact The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox has been completely redesigned, embracing its position both as Chevrolet's most popular crossover SUV and a genuine compact SUV. The new Equinox showcases a brand-new exterior and interior styling, a completely new powertrain, new technology, built on a new compact platform. The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox, already popular, is now poised to truly dominate the crossover SUV market. 2018 Chevrolet Equinox The exterior of the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox is now more modern and more aggressively styled, a completely new look for the already popular Equinox. Although perhaps not quite as aggressive, the headlights have a very similar shape and are swept into the fenders in a very similar way as they are with the Cruze sedan. The new aerodynamic angles and compact body shape are sure to turn heads on the road. While the newly designed Equinox is smaller than the old model by almost every measure, the differences are so small that they're almost inconsequential. For example, cargo space behind the rear seats when they're up has reduced by just 1.6 cu.-ft., and available space with the seats folded has dropped by as little as 0.2 cu.-ft. Front and rear leg room has dropped by less than half an inch, while headroom is reduced by less than an inch from where it was in the previous model. Interior space sets this newly compact Equinox apart from its competitors in every good way. The Equinox's entry level engine is a turbocharged 1.5-liter unit developing 170 horsepower, which is a little less than the 2.4-liter engine it replaces. It does produce more torque though, and drivers will find the power more accessible with the new engine. Though you're losing 12 horsepower, the new compact and sleek 2018 Chevrolet Equinox also lost 400 pounds. All you'll notice is the nimble, powerful performance of this newly designed Equinox--you won't notice missing power. The best EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings the new Equinox offers are an impressive 26 mpg in the city, 32 mpg on the highway and 28 mpg combined. However, if fuel economy is a top priority for you, look for the new turbodiesel option debuting later in the model year. While the EPA obviously has no fuel economy estimates yet, word is that the front-drive option may earn ratings as good as 40 mpg. Equinox Premier Well-appointed both on the inside and in the package of driver assistance features, the Premier version of the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox is a luxurious compact crossover that won't disappoint. Leather interior, heated steering wheels, 8-way power seat adjuster, ventilated front seats, and heated seats throughout take the Premier to another level, as does its roomy interior for both passengers and drivers and features like USB ports and a hands-free power liftgate. Drivers will appreciate features like rear park assist, rear cross traffic alert, side blind zone alert, and lane keep assist with warnings. All New Style and Size The newly redesigned Equinox looks like a brand new model--and it is. Compact in stature but uncompromising in comfort, the Equinox takes a run at the compact SUV market with its athletic, attractive styling. Projector-Beam Headlights Cut through the gloom, rain, or other elements with projector-beam headlights and LED daytime running lights. Spacious Passenger Space The newly compact Equinox still has plenty of room for five passengers, with nearly the same amount of leg room in the front seat as the back seat. Hands-Free Power Liftgate Don't put the cargo down--use your foot to activate the hands-free liftgate without worry. Conclusion The new 2018 Chevrolet Equinox is fully redesigned, from top to bottom, and a wildly successful one at that. The new exterior design and performance makes it a real contender to win over many of the compact SUV buyers who haven't yet found their favorite in the crowded segment. To be sure, the new Equinox is an improvement over the old version and a great addition to the compact crossover class. Inventory Contact
