2007 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500

2007 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 Overview

Introduction

The Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 successfully combines the hauling capacity of a long-bed pickup with the comfort of a five-passenger sport utility vehicle.

The Chevy Avalanche comes in one configuration, a half-ton, full-size pickup with four doors, room for up to six passengers and outfitted with a unique, fold-down rear bulkhead accessing an enclosed bed. Three engines are offered, two 5.3-liter V8s, one making 320 horsepower in the two-wheel drive version, another 310 horsepower in the four-wheel drive model, and a 355-hp, 6.0-liter V8 scheduled to appear later in the model run. The transmission is a four-speed automatic, mated to an electronic transfer case in four-wheel-drive models. Safety features that come standard on all models include the required front-seat airbags, LATCH rear-seat child safety seat anchors, and the OnStar crash-notification system.

The Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 is fully redesigned in 2007.
