Chevrolet was founded over 100 years ago by auto industry legend William C. Durant and race car driver Louis Chevrolet. Since its beginnings, Chevy has been about delivering affordable vehicles with exceptional performance and value for all types of drivers. You can see that in many of today's models, like the Corvette and Camaro. These two sports cars embody the racing spirit of Louis Chevrolet, and are perfect choices for drivers who want to push it to the limit on the New York State Thruway. In fact, the Corvette is the most affordable mid-engine supercar available today. For family drivers who prefer more in the way of comfort and convenience, Chevy offers the Malibu. This midsize sedan is one of the brand's longest-running models, giving you plenty of room for up to five passengers.
If you are looking for an SUV, then you are going to find that Chevy has the most comprehensive lineup. No matter which size or style you desire, you are going to find it from Chevy. Also, many Chevy SUVs feature available all-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, which can come in handy during our inclement weather in this part of New York State.
The Trax is a subcompact SUV with exceptional fuel economy, making it a great choice for your student at RPI. The Trailblazer is another subcompact SUV from Chevy with a rugged design that makes it perfect for those who want to explore the great outdoors near Rensselaer. The most versatile model in the Chevy SUV lineup is the Equinox. This compact SUV has excellent fuel economy for commuters, yet it is roomy enough for a young family. Older couples are also going to love the Equinox as its added ground clearance makes it easier to enter and exit when going out on a shopping run downtown.
Chevy also offers a quartet of larger SUVs. The two-row Blazer is a sporty midsize model that works great for a daily driver. The three-row Traverse is perfect for Rensselaer families. That extra row of seats will help you accommodate all of your kids and their friends, especially if you are going for a picnic out at Hampton Manor Town Park. The Tahoe and Suburban are full-size SUVs that are rugged enough for the outdoors, yet stylish enough that your passengers will never want the trip to end. These models are perfect for drivers who want to be able to seat up to nine passengers without having to sacrifice any cargo space in the trunk.
One area where Chevy has excelled is in building trucks. The Silverado 1500 is the flagship of the lineup, a full-size truck that is versatile enough to suit the needs of so many different drivers. It features three different cab styles, as well as numerous trim levels and engine options, so you can buy a Silverado 1500 that is perfect for work, play, or a little of both.
If you need to maximize your towing and hauling capabilities, you can choose a Chevy Silverado 2500 HD or 3500 HD. This pair of heavy-duty trucks are built to give you exceptional power. At the other end of the spectrum is the Colorado, a midsize pickup that is perfect for light duty work or as a first truck for a Rensselaer driver new to the thrills of trucking. In addition, if you are into challenging many of the nearby off-road trails, you can get the ZR2 trim on most Chevy trucks. This trim comes with all-terrain tires, a specialized four-wheel drivetrain, a factory lift, skid plates, recovery hooks, and other features you will need for off-roading.
Chevy has also been expanding its lineup of EVs. These models either help you reduce fuel consumption with hybrid powertrains or eliminate the need for gasoline altogether with full battery-electric power. Best of all, Chevy has chosen to base its EVs on such popular models as the Silverado, Blazer, Equinox, and Corvette. These gives you the advantages of an EV in a model that you know and love.
We are an official Chevrolet dealership. This means that we can get you the Chevy you want, including the trim level, engine options, and other features you desire. We have a full selection of new Chevy models to choose from, so you are sure to find the one you are looking for, whether it is a Trailblazer or a Silverado 1500. Our friendly salespeople will review all the different models we offer, helping you decide which one fits your lifestyle perfectly. Next, we will go over all of the different options on the model, including choices of engine, drivetrain, trim level, and packages.
If you don't see the exact model you want here at our dealership, our sales team member can order it for you from the Chevy factory. This will allow you to decide on all of the different options and packages on the model, including picking your favorite color.
We always have a vast inventory of used models to choose from. Some of these are trade-ins from our other customers, while others may be leased Chevys that have been turned in at the end of their lease terms. This is why you can find great used models from brands like Kia, Hyundai, Ford, Jeep, Subaru, Ram, Toyota, and Nissan for sale at our dealership. Whether you are looking for a Chevy or a model from another brand, you will surely find an unsurpassed selection of quality used cars, trucks, and SUVs at our dealership. Buying a used vehicle is a great way to buy a first car for your young driver. It also helps you stretch your budget, as used vehicles cost less than the same model new. As a result, you can buy a used model at a higher trim level with more advanced features at around the same price you would pay if you bought a new model at a lower trim.
Our dealership also takes the mystery out of buying a used vehicle. Each used model that we sell comes with a complimentary CARFAX vehicle history report. This will tell you all you need to know about the car, truck, or SUV you are considering buying, including prior ownership, open recalls, service history, accident reports, and other crucial information. In this way, you will be able to see that the used vehicle you are considering is a good deal.
