Chevy Has Built Affordable and Reliable Models For Over a Century

The Chevrolet story has its roots in the Industrial boom of the Edwardian Era when two like-minded men put their heads together. William Crapo “Billy” Durant already founded General Motors in 1908, and Louis Chevrolet was a world-renowned Swiss racing car driver and engineer. Chevrolet Motor Company of Michigan was incorporated in 1911, producing the rather-expensive, high-end Classic Six models. Chevy eventually realized that they would need to make more affordable models if they wanted to keep competing with other automakers.

Since then, Chevy has added many vehicles to its lineup. From the immensely popular 1950 Chevy Bel Air to the totally rad 1970 Monte Carlo, many of these old Chevys lasted for years and years. You can even see some of them still on the road to this day, participating in parades and cruising around in car shows, showing off their beauty and strength.

Of course, Chevys are still built to be affordable and reliable. You can see Chevy models from a decade––or even two decades ago––still serving as daily commuters. These vehicles have excellent reliability ratings, and you’ve probably already heard people recommend getting a Chevy based on their positive experiences with them. There are people who come back after years of owning a Chevy because they know these vehicles will last a long time and serve them well. When Chevys do break down, they are a little bit more affordable to repair than their counterparts. Scheduled maintenance and unexpected repairs alike are cheaper on the whole than what you get from a lot of other automakers’ vehicles.

Chevys also seem to make fewer pit stops to the mechanic. RepairPal reports that Chevys go in for unscheduled repairs at an annual rate of about 0.3 times, while the industry average is about 0.4 times per year. In other words, this type of thing does not happen very often for Chevy vehicles––a relief for their owners indeed! Of course, normal wear and tear will always occur, which is why we always recommend bringing your Chevy back to us here at DePaula Chevrolet. We can help with routine care but can also diagnose and repair things if something breaks.

Chevy Malibu

When you need a sedan or crossover to get you from Point A to Point B and back every day, Chevy has some strong options for you to consider. You will find all kinds of great commuter vehicles in our new and used inventories, but on particular used option worth considering is the Chevy Malibu. In fact, we recommend it to individuals who are not quite ready to make the leap into the world of SUVs just yet and want something small and fuel-efficient.

The Chevy Malibu is a spunky little car with a lot of personality and has been since it was introduced to the market in 1997. This midsize sedan is more spacious than it might seem from the outside, offering a cavernous cabin that comfortably seats up to five occupants at a time. Although the Malibu started out being a little cramped in the second row, rear seat space was expanded over time. The Malibu makes it easy to stretch your legs and relax no matter which seat you are sitting in. You and anyone else who rides in the car with you will also have enough head space, even with the slope of the roofline in the rear.

The Malibu is a well-mannered mid-size sedan with a comfortable ride quality. The suspension is perfectly adept at smoothing out any bumps or other road imperfections that the vehicle rolls over, and the tires are able to absorb a good amount of bumps while providing enough road grip. What’s even better is that the Malibu showcases nimble handling capabilities, rounding through turns with ease. You get a good feeling for the vehicle’s reasonable aerodynamics, and the steering feels well weighted and responsive to driver inputs. All put together, this makes the Malibu a pleasure to drive, something that Amsterdam drivers crave from their commuter vehicles.

Of course, the Malibu has a lot of built-in technology to keep you informed and entertained while you are on the go. Chevy’s infotainment systems are known for their user-friendly designs, with layouts that are easy to read and graphics that have crisp digital quality. Your learning curve for the infotainment system should be rather short. You will be able to play all your favorite tunes, sync your apps from your smartphone, use Bluetooth for hands-free phone calls and audio streaming, and more! You also get plenty of vehicle information on the dashboard display so that you know when a tire needs more air or when maintenance of some sort needs to be performed. Technology on the Malibu is indeed as practical as it is enjoyable to use––something you cannot find in just any commuter car!

Chevy Equinox

Perhaps you need something bigger than a sedan. If you have a couple of kids you need to drive around every day, you might be thinking along the lines of getting an SUV. Chevy has numerous SUVs in its lineup, so you get a lot of great models to choose from. However, our recommendation for the most family-friendly crossover SUV is the Equinox. This small SUV crossover is perfect for city-dwelling families needing a little extra space in the cabin and in the cargo area. You can comfortably sit in any seat with room to spare for your legs and head. The cargo area offers a lot of storage space even with the second row of seats left upright. Underneath the rear cargo floor, you will find even more storage space that you can use for more organization. When you do need to fold the second row down, these 60/40-split folding seats go down nice and flat, giving you a leveled cargo floor to securely hold your bulkier items.

Another big plus to owning the Equinox is its safety features. GM ensures that Chevy owners get all the latest and greatest advanced driver aids and other safety gear model year after model year. In fact, they keep adding and upgrading the advanced driver aids that come on the Chevy Equinox. Chevy Safety Assist (which is what GM calls Chevy’s suite of advanced driver aids) offers drivers a lot of peace of mind as they go about the busy streets of Amsterdam and beyond. The Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) consistently gives the Equinox good ratings for its crashworthiness, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) likewise assigns five-star overall ratings to the Equinox each model year. Drivers with families feel safe and confident riding around in the Equinox, even on high-traffic city streets and out on blazing-fast highways.
