Avalanche LTZ 4x4 in Graystone Metallic
| |
|
|
Chevy Avalanche is the industry's most flexible utility vehicle, combining the passenger-comfort attributes of an SUV
with the cargo capability of a truck. It is based on GM's full-size SUV platform, which features segment-leading fuel
economy and flex-fuel capability; a sharp, precise driving feel, interior refinement and notable quietness.
Avalanche is also designed with safety in mind. It delivers a 360-degree safety system of occupant protection and
crash-avoidance technology with features such as standard StabiliTrak stability control system with new rollover
mitigation technology. For 2008, Avalanche's list of standard safety features is enhanced with the inclusion of head
curtain side impact air bags on all models. Previously, they were optional on some models.
The 2008 Avalanche is available in LS, LT and LTZ models, with 2WD and 4WD. The standard powertrain includes an efficient
5.3L V-8 with Active Fuel Management technology that seamlessly switches from eight-cylinder to four-cylinder operation
to save fuel. A 6.0L V-8 engine with Active Fuel Management and variable valve timing (VVT) is also available, giving
Avalanche customers more choices for selecting a vehicle that has the capability they demand. Several of Avalanche's
engines are FlexFuel-capable, meaning they can run on E85 ethanol-based fuel.
Also available is the popular Z71 Off Road appearance package. This optional package includes the Z71 Off Road suspension
with high-pressure, gas-charged monotube shocks, 18-inch on/off road tires, automatic-locking differential, front
recovery hooks, a durable skid plate and high-capacity air cleaner. Large, color-keyed wheel flares, an aggressive front
fascia and chrome tubular assist steps, door handle centers, mirror caps and front grille inserts provide a one-of-a kind
appearance. On the inside, a brushed metal look replaces the woodgrain accents for a more rugged appearance. Also
included are leather-appointed bucket seats that are available in solid Ebony, Ebony with Light Titanium inserts, and
Ebony with Morocco Brown inserts.
Additional changes for '08 reflect customer preferences and further enhance Avalanche's style. They include a change to a
40/20/40-split bench seat in LS models that provides convenient storage space in the center section; woodgrain trim added
to the forward center console on LTZ and brighter instrument pointers in the gauge cluster. There are also two new
exterior colors: Blue Granite Metallic and Deep Ruby Metallic.
- Head curtain side impact air bags standard on all models
- Two new exterior colors: Blue Granite Metallic and Deep Ruby Metallic
