New 2010 Chevrolet Express 1500

Excellent engine options, remote start capability, superb cargo room and great towing capabilities combine to make the 2010 Chevrolet Express 1500 a winner of a van.

A 195-horsepower, 4.3-liter V-6 provides a fuel-efficient base engine for the Express 1500 while offering adequate power to haul all your business needs. A 280-horsepower, 4.8-liter V-8 steps up the Express’s power game and adds enhanced towing capacity, while the 310-horsepower, 5.3-liter V-8 offers more power than any engine in the Ford E-150 or Dodge Sprinter. Engines are mated to a four-speed automatic transmission, and available drivetrains include rear-wheel, four-wheel and all-wheel drive systems. These powertrains achieve 13-15 mpg in the city and 17-20 mpg on the highway. With the 5.3-liter V-8, the Express 1500 also delivers up to an unmatched 6,700-pound towing capacity, and a 2,359-pound payload rating.

If you need more cargo space, the 2010 Chevrolet Express 1500 has you covered, with 267 cubic feet of it when configured as a cargo van. Inside you can store a professional business toolset, even a table saw, or configure your van to seat up to eight when configured as a passenger van. The LS model comes equipped with vinyl seats, power steering, air conditioning, and a basic two-speaker stereo. Most features, including a trailer hitch, a chrome bumper, power seats, rear air conditioning, power windows and door locks, a leather-trimmed steering wheel and a CD player (one- and six-disc units available) are optional.

Keeping occupants safe is something the 2010 Chevrolet Express 1500 excels at, with its  standard dual front and three-row head airbags. Four wheel antilock brakes with dynamic rear proportioning for optimal stopping power, as well as traction and stability control systems, are also packaged into the base price. Airbags and a sturdy frame deliver Five-Star front impact ratings in government testing; side impact ratings are not available.

With a gargantuan cargo bay or three rows of seats, and more available power than any other 1500-series light-duty full-size van, the 2010 Chevrolet Express 1500 is a seriously capable van with the strength to carry your business on its back.
