When it comes to moving big payloads, few vehicles are as up to the task as the full size 2013 Chevrolet Express Van. Dressed for passenger service, the Express Van crushes the largest of SUVs, providing seating for up to 15 people. Switch to the cargo van and the Express Van offers up a massive 285-cubic-foot cargo hold. It also can be outfitted as a rolling workstation.

Chevy has modernized its big van with rounded corners, high-mounted taillights and stylish truck-like wheels. All 2013 Chevy Express models are equipped with stability control, 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and dual front airbags. Chevrolet designed the Express Van with the sole purpose of moving big payloads, be they passengers or cargo.

There is only one Chevrolet Corvette, and it's an American original. The 2012 Chevrolet Corvette offers even more for driving enthusiasts to love. With horsepower and handling to rival some of Europe's greatest super cars, the made-in-America 2012 Chevrolet Corvette continues to offer superior performance at a fraction of the price. The 2012 Chevrolet Corvette is a genuine driver's car. The big news for the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette is found on the Corvette Z06 and Corvette ZR1 models. The Corvette Z06 is available with an enhanced Z07 Performance Package with race-track-ready Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires and a new Performance Traction Management system, which manages torque delivery to put all that power to the pavement. The Corvette ZR1 receives these same upgrades in the new PDE performance package. Thanks to a host of high-tech electronic performance enhancements, the C6 Corvette rounds corners and responds quicker than any previous Corvette. The 6.2-liter V8 engine is never short on power, requiring only a slight tap of the accelerator to release its fury. The 2012 Chevy Corvette coupe's power steering turns with little effort yet returns excellent on-center feel and guidance. All three of the available suspension packages – a base system, Magnetic Ride Control and the Z07 Performance package – are designed to satisfy a wide range of driving styles, from the casual weekend cruiser to the hard-core track enthusiast. In the sport mode the Corvette grabs the pavement with tenacity, and in touring mode it soaks up road harshness like a large luxury sedan. There are a million reasons to want the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette. They range from good ol' nostalgia to the basic need for a pure adrenaline rush. If there is one car you should own at least once in your life, it's the Chevrolet Corvette.

America's favorite full-size SUV, the 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe, continues to impress with its power, its capabilities and its reputation for reliability and owner satisfaction. The 2012 Chevy Tahoe SUV can seat up to nine passengers, deliver EPA highway fuel economy figures in the low 20-mpg range, and offers the only full-size hybrid SUV in the segment. Chevrolet has pushed the 2012 Tahoe SUV's full-size body-on-frame platform to limits, and the results are quite impressive. The fully-boxed frame creates a more rigid chassis, which in turn helps improve handling and reduces interior rattles. The coil-over-shock front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering result in a surprisingly maneuverable and tractable vehicle. The 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe's elegant dash with blue-backlit controls and white-backlit instruments with glowing red indicator needles are highly attractive features. Accessing the Tahoe's third-row seats is made simple, either via the pass-through walkway between the available captain's chair seats, or by activating the power release fold-and-tumble mechanism on the second-row seats. The power-bulge hood and big wheel and tire combo give the 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV a substantial road presence. The Tahoe's flush headlamps, smooth wrap-around bumper and lower air dam, and steeply-raked windshield all contribute to its low 0.363 coefficient of drag, a number that lets this big vehicle slip through the wind almost like a streamlined jet. If you like the feel of a big vehicle and you have the need to transport hordes of kids plus the camper trailer to put them in, the 2012 Chevy Tahoe SUV makes a great choice!

Boasting impressive horsepower and mpg to match, the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro is a spirited performer that's also practical for everyday use. From the fun-loving convertible models to the near super-car performance of the mighty Camaro ZL1, there is a Chevy Camaro flavor for just about every need and budget. The Chevy Camaro receives a number of improvements for the 2013 model year, highlights of which include an available MyLink Infotainment system with navigation, hill-start assist for manual-transmission models, electric power steering for SS trims and a new track-ready 1LE package designed to bridge the performance gap between Camaro SS models and the range-topping ZL1. Some cars attempt a retro feel that just looks odd or over the top, but the Camaro's design team nailed the spirit of the original without insulting it. The details like the grille, rear roof pillars and taillights are simply gorgeous. The 2013 Camaro offers four engine choices: A 323-horsepower 3.6-liter direct-injected LFX V6, 400-horsepower 6.2-liter L99 V8 with Active Fuel Management, 426-horsepower 6.2-liter LS3 V8 and a 580-horsepower supercharged LSA V8. The V6 and the LSA can be backed by either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. The L99 is accompanied by a 6-speed automatic with steering wheel-mounted paddle-shift control, while the LS3 has a 6-speed manual. Sports car buffs looking to get a great deal of horsepower for the money will find the 2013 Chevy Camaro an enticing proposition. And for those looking to turn some heads, the Camaro has plenty of show to match its go.

The 2013 Chevrolet Avalanche truck is part pickup, part SUV and entirely practical. Built on the same platform as the Suburban, the 2013 Avalanche full-size truck is endowed with the same strong chassis, ground clearance and available 4-wheel drive (4WD) as its SUV cousin. The 2013 Chevrolet Avalanche delivers an impressive level of refinement in areas of both ride and handling. Over smooth roads, the suspension seems to float along. The 2013 Chevy Avalanche offers a healthy Vortec 5.3-liter V8, matched to a 6-speed 6L80 Hydra-Matic transmission. The centerpiece of the Chevy Avalanche's design is its folding midgate bulkhead separating the cabin from truck's bed. With the midgate open, the 2013 Chevy Avalanche's bed grows from 63 inches to 98, providing many more options for hauling bigger loads. The bed itself features a protective liner and storage boxes along the bed walls. Visually, the Avalanche is a handsome hybrid of the Suburban SUV and Silverado pickup, with distinctive flying-buttress sail panels. If you need the 6-passenger capacity of an SUV, but the stuff you regularly haul behind the seats is frequently dirty or dripping something you'd rather not clean up, the 2013 Chevy Avalanche truck is the vehicle for you. But don't wait: This is the Avalanche's final year of production.

In the world of half-ton pickups, the 2012 Chevrolet Silverado rules supreme. To keep its big rig competitive and its customers happy, Chevrolet constantly improves the 2012 Silverado pickup line, giving it one of the most fuel-efficient V8s in the segment, not to mention the only hybrid pickup truck available. Truck buyers care about power, hauling ability and comfort. Here too, the 2012 Silverado half-ton pickup delivers, with a max tow rating of 10,700 pounds when equipped with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Tow Package. Thanks to its rigid frame, coil-over-shock front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering, and advanced construction techniques, the full-size 2012 Chevrolet Silverado pickup offers decidedly better ride and handling characteristics than Silverados past. A stiff chassis means a stronger platform for towing and the Silverado's fully boxed frame delivers strength in spades. As for power, the Silverado pickup offers a few options. The 4.3-liter V6 is a good choice for those hauling only light loads in the bed and not towing. For bigger jobs, the 5.3-liter V8 is an excellent choice combining power and fuel economy in an affordable package. The big dog in the Silverado's kennel is a 403-horsepower 6.2-liter aluminum block V8. Power delivery with each V8 engine is more than ample, and the electronically controlled 6-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission delivers it smoothly and without hesitation. For 2012, Chevrolet gives the Silverado full-size pickup a refreshed front end, available heated/cooling seats for the LTZ, and a new White Diamond Edition. Also new is an available navigation radio with built-in hard drive that eliminates the need for map data stored on DVDs. With its numerous possible configurations, the 2012 Chevy Silverado half-ton pickup will please all but the chronically indecisive. From cab configurations to bed lengths to trim and option packages, the Silverado is the half-ton jack of all trades.

Big space and big capabilities have made the 2013 Chevrolet Tahoe America's favorite full-size SUV. Properly equipped, the brawny body-on-frame vehicle, based on a truck-type construction, can seat up to nine passengers, tow 8,500 pounds and manage well off-road. The Tahoe delivers EPA highway fuel-economy figures in the low 20-mpg range and offers the only hybrid in the segment. Chevrolet has pushed the Tahoe's full-size platform to the limits and the results are impressive. The fully-boxed frame results in a rigid chassis that helps improve handling and reduce interior noise. The coil-over-shock front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering contribute to a surprisingly maneuverable and tractable vehicle. The elegant dash with its blue-backlit controls and white-backlit instruments are highly attractive features. Accessing the Tahoe's third-row seats is made simple, either via the pass-through walkway between the available captain's chair seats, or by activating the power release fold-and-tumble mechanism on the second-row seats. Conservative but nicely-sculpted sheet metal is set off by the Tahoe's expressive Chevrolet-family face, consisting of twin horizontal grille sections separated by a big Chevy bow-tie badge. The power-bulge hood and big wheels and tires give the Tahoe a substantial road presence. The Tahoe's flush headlamps, smooth wrap-around bumper, lower air dam and steeply-raked windshield all contribute to its low 0.363 coefficient of drag. The 2013 Chevy Tahoe includes boatloads of standard features. Even the base LS model offers dual-zone air conditioning, 6-way power driver's seat, StabiliTrak stability control, OnStar, Bluetooth, tire-pressure monitoring and airbags everywhere: Front and side for the front seats and head-curtain bags for all rows. If you like the feel of a big vehicle and you have the need to transport hordes of kids plus the camper trailer to put them in, the 2013 Chevy Tahoe SUV makes a great choice!

Offering the roominess of a traditional SUV but car-like handling and better fuel economy, there's a lot to like about the 2013 Chevrolet Traverse. The Traverse can seat up to eight, drinks less gasoline than a traditional SUV, and starts at an appetizing price. The 2013 Chevrolet Traverse has a design freshening that's most notable in the front fascia. The new Traverse also features the MyLink infotainment system and the industry's first front-center airbag. Its smooth and strong V6 easily shuffles this vehicle up to speed, whether in front- or all-wheel-drive form. At 205 inches in length, the Traverse is larger than its direct competitors but doesn't feel bloated on the road. The 2013 Chevy Traverse offers a comfortable and commanding ride in which the suspension tames bumps and the tall ride height affords good frontal views. The 2013 Chevrolet Traverse has three rows of seats that can be configured for seven or eight passengers. The 2013 Traverse is roomy, as adults can fit into the third row. Copious cargo space swallows shopping bags, luggage and lumber. The 2013 Traverse's new styling up front aims to bring cohesiveness to Chevrolet's family of vehicles. The tweaks include a horizontal grille, new elongated headlights and a power-dome hood. If you need a vehicle that can hold eight passengers, tow 5,200 pounds and offer better fuel economy and a more comfortable ride than a traditional SUV, the 2013 Traverse will be welcome in your world.
