2007 Chevrolet Avalanche
Thursday, June 15th, 2006
This reconfigurable pickup truck is redesigned for 2007 with more power and features. The 2007 Avalanche is essentially a crew-cab version of the Chevrolet Suburban with a “midgate” wall separating the cab from the cargo bed. Lowering the midgate extends the bed to 8.2 ft from 5.3. The half-ton 1500 model returns; Chevy hasn’t announced plans to again offer a three-quarter-ton 2500. Avalanche seats up to six and comes in LS, LT, and LTZ models. A 320-hp 5.3-liter V8 replaces the 2002-2006 generation’s 295-hp 5.3. A 310-hp 5.3 that can run on ethanol-blended fuel, called E85, is a no-cost option. Both engines have GM’s Active Fuel Management that shuts off four cylinders while cruising to save fuel.
Due later in the model year for the 2007 Chevy Avalanche is an available 355-hp 6.0 V8. All engines team with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Avalanche is available with rear-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive that can be left engaged on dry pavement and includes low-range gearing. ABS and GM’s Stabilitrak traction/antiskid control with rollover sensors are standard. GM’s Autoride self-leveling suspension is standard on LTZ, optional on the others. A Z71 off-road package is available.
Among new features are available curtain side airbags that cover both seating rows and include rollover deployment are available. Also newly available: rear obstacle detection and rearview camera. Options include navigation system and rear DVD entertainment.
