Looking for something to brighten the winter gloom? The pack of brand new Chevys at Heidebreicht will have you dashing through the snow in style. We have something for everyone, whether you want a hearty off road chariot or a sleek city sleigh.
If you need a real workhorse, come test drive the 2016 Colorado. Car and Driver magazine ranks it number one in its class. With the right options package the Colorado boasts 305 horsepower. That translates to a hefty 7000 pound towing capacity. For those looking for a beefier engine, the Colorado Duramax diesel variant can pull up to 7700 pounds even over long distances. You don’t have to sacrifice fuel economy for power, either. The diesel engine gets 31 miles to the gallon on highway, making it the most fuel efficient truck on the road.
Three different body styles give the Colorado flexibility on top of power. The four-door crew cab is designed to carry passengers often and can be fitted with either a five or a six foot bed. Drivers who don’t use the passenger space often can pick the extended cab with smaller passenger space and a standard six-foot bed. Whichever you choose, you’ll find driving the Colorado to be a dream. The driver’s seat and controls were streamlined for a more natural driving position, meaning you won’t get a stiff neck on long road trips.
Families on the go should check out the new Equinox, an SUV whose quiet interior hides a strong V6 engine. The backseat can be adjusted or even collapsed to increase the already generous cargo area. It has an unprecedented amount of active safety features, too. The Equinox can be fitted with the Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems, which combine to alert the driver of traffic unexpectedly approaching from low visibility zones. You can beef this package up with Rear Park Assist, Forward Collision Alert, and Lane Departure Warning (which notifies drivers when they accidentally drift into a different lane). In the event an accident does occur, rest easy in knowing that the Equinox is a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Part of that safety is also entertainment. The same OnStar system that alerts response teams in crashes can provide a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. The Wi-Fi system takes the stress out of family road trips. Up to seven devices can use this hotspot for a strong, reliable connection everywhere the satellite covers. Every family member can be playing their own game or watching their own movie. The driver has custom features too, with iPhone and Android Apps that handle text messages and sort music using only voice commands.
There are times when practical reliable cars just can’t raise the spirits. For those times, we have the powerful, stylish, just plain fun to drive Corvette Stingray. The Corvette’s V8 engine satisfies your need for speed. Those with more advanced driving skills will appreciate the outstanding responsiveness and track-worthy braking. Favorite features such as the premium Bose audio system are carried over into the 2016 model. The upgrade adds some accessories, like a power-closing trunk and standard integration of the Apple CarPlay system. You can even get the adaptive suspension dampers in all packages and a very cool racecar styled edition, the Z06 C7.R. The Corvette also has access to all the Chevy connectivity and entertainment features.
