2007 Chevrolet Avalanche |
Introducing the New 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche
|
With the entirely new 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche there's a lot to boast about. One part stylish SUV, one part capable pickup truck, and one part family vehicle, the Avalanche defies definition. It's everything you need it to be - when you want it to be. It's an exceptional vehicle, and that's definitely something worth talking about
|
|
Outperform The Rest |
 |
Evolutionary power, efficiency and comfort come naturally to the new 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche. A standard Vortec 5300 V8 engine pumps out 320 horsepower for 2WD models and 310 horsepower for 4WD models. Active Fuel Management™ also allows for an efficient seamless transition from eight cylinders to four cylinders when extra cruising power is not needed.
Add exceptional towing capability, superior technological advancements like available OnStar°, DVD navigation, XM Satellite Radio and an available MP3 compatible CD player and standard Bose premium audio system. The result is an ultimate vehicle that's engineered for superior performance and designed for unparalleled comfort and versatility
|
| Redefine Flexibility |
 |
Adapt to everything and conform to nothing with the 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche. The exclusive GM Midgate™ allows the 2007 Avalanche to change from a six-passenger SUV to a full-size pickup with seating for three and an 8 ft. protected cargo box. A three-piece rigid cargo cover also helps protect your load from the elements while lockable topbox storage with lighting ensures there's always plenty of room for your gear.
Family weekend camping expedition? Visit to the construction site? Or shopping excursion to the mall? Why choose? The 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche has the flexibility and capability to handle all situations.
|
| Fuel Your Drive |
 |
The 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche knows a thing or two about environmental responsibility. Its FlexFuel Vortec 5300 V8 engine (standard in 4WD models and available in 2WD models) runs on gasoline or FlexFuel E85, a renewable fuel source that consists of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. Made from bio-material, it helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Plus, with an engine that also features Active Fuel Management™, which allows for improved fuel efficiency through seamless transition from eight cylinders to four cylinders and back again, you're in for an exceptionally efficient ride.
|
| Safety First |
 |
When it comes to ensuring a safe driving experience, the new 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche is no pushover. Standard StabiliTrak™ with Proactive Roll Avoidance is designed to keep you on track, while OnStar° guarantees help is always there when you need it.
Even off the road, the new Avalanche puts your safety first with available Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist and a rear-view camera system to help alert you whenever there's an object behind your vehicle. It's a ride that does everything it can to protect you and your family.
