DETROIT – Jeneise and Talfred Hunt of Romeoville, Ill. took their 2009 Malibu Hybrid to Advantage Chevrolet in Bolingbrook for an oil change this week and instead became the first customers to purchase the all-new 2013 Malibu Eco midsize sedan.
DETROIT – Advertising experts say more people are interested in buying Chevrolet cars and trucks due to clever and targeted advertising and innovative digital campaigns tied to Super Bowl XLVI.
According to the CNBC/Collective Intellect Super Sunday Ad Tracker research conducted before, during and after the game, Chevrolet came in first in purchase language – language that suggests a consumers’ intent to purchase a product based on the advertising. Chevrolet beat out all of the other brands that also advertised during the Super Bowl by a comfortable margin.
DETROIT – General Motors remains the No. 1 innovator for the fourth-consecutive quarter among 183 companies ranked by The Patent Board in its quarterly automotive and transportation industry scorecard.
With new features, new special edition models and an incredible new eight-speed automatic transmission, the 2012 Dodge Charger powers past its competitors to the top of the performance sedan food chain.
Is it possible to be thick and thin at the same time? Well, if so, the Charger’s aggressive design epitomizes lean muscle. Long, dramatic lines stretch the sedan’s frame while features like the dual-scalloped hood, iconic crosshair grille and deeply-slashed side panels deliver inherent brawn. In a model lineup that spans the value-packed SE through the high-performance SRT8, the Charger integrates available high-intensity SmartBeam® Intelligent Headlamps, foglamps, trapezoidal dual-chrome exhaust tips, 20-inch wheels and signature “racetrack” LED taillights.

The Chevrolet Tahoe is a spacious powerhouse with confident handling and superb ride quality. Since its introduction in the 1990s, the Tahoe has improved on its predecessors in every way, and Chevrolet shows no signs of slowing progress. For 2012, the new Tahoe is full of improvements ranging from new comfort and entertainment options to new colors and safety systems.
The 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe (MSRP starting at $38,450) seats up to nine (yes, nine) and is available in LS, LT and LTZ trims (plus a Hybrid, a topic for a separate article), each available with either rear-wheel drive or 4WD. Every Tahoe is equipped with an E85 FlexFuel-capable 5.3-liter Vortec™ V8 and a Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed automatic transmission. That V8 is capable of 320 hp and 335 lb/ft of torque and, in combination with the Tahoe’s fully boxed frame, provides a generous towing capacity of up to 8,500 pounds. That impressive power and tow rating comes with an EPA-estimated 21 mpg highway (2WD models), thanks in part to Active Fuel Management (AFM), which can deactivate as many as four cylinders during light driving conditions. This transition is seamless and takes less than 20 milliseconds, meaning you feel virtually nothing.
