New 2009 Chevrolet Cars Reviews

2009 Chevrolet Traverse, informs Automobilemag.com. GM’s marketing staff insists the 2009 Chevrolet Traverse is a “no-compromise” vehicle - but we beg to differ. That, however, is a compliment - with the seating capacity of a minivan, the towing capacity of a mid-size SUV, and the ride prowess of a large car, the Traverse may well be the ideal compromise for customers accustomed to large SUVs. Everything about the 2009 Chevy Traverse that will be unveiled later today in Chicago is stuff we pretty much already know. As the fourth Lambda-platform crossover from General Motors, the basics have been introduced already in the GMC Acadia, Saturn Outlook and Buick Enclave.

This compares to the maximum 275 hp that the current Buick, GMC and Saturn versions make.

2009 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, informs Edmunds.com.

Massive towing and hauling capacities, refined and quiet ride, solid build and materials quality, more in-control steering feel than other HD trucks, comfy seats. Before 2009 the 6.2-liter V8 with 403 HP, 417 lb-ft of torque and a six-speed auto was only available in the Denali and the Escalade, but the Silverado and its GMC kissing cousin, the 2009 Sierra, both get to dine at the big boys’ table this year.
