Exterior
There's no other competitor like it
Because it's both an SUV and a pickup truck, it's hard to miss the unique profile of the Chevy Avalanche. This year, it'll stand out even more with exterior touches like the new Silver Ice Metallic exterior paint, the already available power-retractable assist steps, plus the available matching body-color exterior components.
GM Segment-Exclusive Midgate Flexibility
The ingenious midgate transforms Chevy Avalanche from a five or six-passenger SUV to a full-size pickup truck. The conversion is easy: just lower the 60/40 split-folding bench seat. From there, the midgate can be lowered for a secured cargo area, or the rear window and three-piece tonneau cargo cover can be removed for more room to transport larger items.
Spacious Cargo Area
Avalanche's cargo box features a lockable tailgate, rigid tonneau cover and top storage box. It can accommodate 4' x 8' building materials, has 50" between the wheel housing, and it offers 45.5 cubic feet of space. When it comes to storage capacity, Avalanche has the largest trunk in the industry.
INTERIOR
As capable on the inside
No matter what your Avalanche has to do, it accomplishes the task with plenty of comfort and style. The roomy interior holds up to six passengers comfortably and offers a host of features:
Heated leather-appointed seating and steering wheel
If you choose leather-appointed seating on your LT, the front seats are heated. Get an Avalanche LTZ and you get a heated steering wheel, plus leather-appointed 12-way power front bucket seats that are heated — and cooled — for year-round comfort.
Dual-Zone Climate Control
You and your front seat passenger can control your own temperatures. Manual control is standard on the LS, while automatic controls are standard on LT and LTZ.
Remote vehicle start
Is being able to start your Avalanche from your house or office a luxury or a necessity? It's both and it's available on the 2012 Chevy Avalanche
SAFETY
Before
StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System helps you keep on the road and in control. The control module compares your steering input with the vehicle's actual response and then, if necessary, makes small, individual applications to help keep you on track. For 2012, StabiliTrak also includes Hill Start Assist and Trailer Sway Control for even more assurance. Rollover Mitigation helps determine potential for vehicle rollover, such as during evasive maneuvers, and applies brake pressure to outside front tire to manage lateral tire grip, reducing tendency for vehicle rollover. And a Tire Pressure Monitor(13), also standard, keeps a constant watch on the inflation level of Avalanche's four road tires.
During
Six Air Bags are standard in Avalanche, including head-curtain side-impact air bags and front seat-mounted side impact air bags. These are in addition to the standard dual-stage frontal, driver and right-front passenger air bags with the Passenger Sensing System. You're also surrounded by a high-strength steel safety cage and strategically placed crush zones to help absorb and channel crash energy in case of a collision.
After
OnStar with Built-in Automatic Crash Response is standard for the first six months. In a collision, vehicle sensors can alert an OnStar Advisor who is immediately connected into your vehicle and can request emergency help be sent to your exact GPS location, even if you can't respond. It's continuous protection, no matter when you need it. Learn more about OnStar
