Consumer Reports Names Chevrolet Avalanche Top Pick

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

avalancheConsumer Reports has selected the Chevrolet Avalanche full-size sport utility truck as its Top Pick honoree among all 2009 pickups. Top Picks are the best all-around vehicles in their categories and must meet CR’s road test, reliability and safety requirements.

“The Chevrolet Avalanche full-sized crew cab ($36,000 to $47,000) is one of the most versatile and comfortable pickups that Consumer Reports has tested,” according to the magazine. “Its unified bed and cab helps give it a solid feel and a comfortable, quiet ride. Its innovative partition, between the cab and the bed, can be folded to allow longer cargo to extend into the back of the cab.”

The Avalanche was the only domestic vehicle chosen in the 10 categories that make up CR’s Top Picks.
