2012 Chevrolet Traverse
Common Engines first took the systems off of it all and final Lambda-based CUV -- the Chevy Cross -- for this year's design year. Although the Cross stocks underpinnings with the Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia and Saturn Lifestyle, its appearance shows Chevrolet's newest style route.
By the looks of it, the cross-over stocks little or no sheetmetal with its friends. As thought, the Cross sports a entrance structures influenced by the Malibu and indicates the future appearance of other Chevy designs. It features a chrome-rimmed entrance grill and available projector stream front lights.
The present Traverse's outside appearance also features turn alerts bundled into the area showcases, a back spoiler, 17-, 18- or 20-inch tires, an available spectacular sunroof, and suggested double fatigue.
Inside, the Cross uses the same twin-cockpit style that can be found in the Malibu. The Traverse's device section residences double assess groups attached with internet explorer features. Normal and available inside facilities include a back vehicle indicator, back perspective photographic camera, power liftgate, distant start, started and refrigerated entrance seating, a routing program, DVD amusement and OnStar. Of be aware, customers don't have to opt for the routing program to get a back photographic camera.
Instead, it can be included as a stand alone option that use a present bundled into the rear-view reflection. The Cross also uses lesser showcases bundled into the area showcases to reduce shades areas.
Although the Cross stocks its underpinnings with other GM Lambda CUVs, the Cross actually runs on the a little different drivetrain. Whereas the other Lambdas uses a 3.6-liter V6 with MPFI, the Cross uses a 3.6-liter V6 with direct-injection -- boosting both outcome and gas mileage.
This current-generation Cross is ranked at 286 power and 255 lb-ft of twisting -- 281 power and 253 lb-ft of twisting with a single-exhaust create -- up from the Lambda conventional of 275 power and 251 lb-ft of twisting.
But despite the leap in power, the Cross dividends better gas mileage than its Lambda brethren with a 24 mpg report on the freeway.

2012 Chevrolet Equinox
With the handling and fuel economy that are on par with a midsize sedan, and a great body that provides more space and versatility, the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox has the likes of the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. And as one of the most spacious compact crossover vehicle, is not an obvious choice for those who need a vehicle affordable, comfortable and well equipped for the service is good family.
Equinox has received a much-needed redesign just two years ago. Previous attempts, the name of the model, it was half-baked, to be friendly, but the current model is top-notch appearance, performance and functionality. Its design has grown more sharp and sporty than its predecessor, better proportions, and many of the suggestions of the Chevrolet "new". Inside the house has a lot of dramatic forms and the central control panel with vents covered with radio and individually controlled air conditioning, which began with the Cadillac, and has now filtered down to models like the Chevy Cruze and Sonic.
You can get 3.0-liter V-June 2012 Equinox, but we really think you are better, a lot of fuel (and cheaper), four-cylinder engine. With 182 horsepower, 2.4-liter four idles smoothly, even if slightly clattery sound, direct injection and a pleasant and discreet. If you put your foot in and let the speed increase - which is a six-speed automatic handles well - it feels quite lively. And, above all, is not stellar Highway 32 mpg EPA rating. V-6 might be a good option and then pull a small trailer, or often drive the car at full load, but it is very thirsty. In fact, the only thing we would like to change about the feeling of driving experience is not sensitive electric power steering, which seems to require a lot of adjustments in the center of highway cruising.
Whether you are moving in the equinox of a mid-size car or SUV trucklike more you will find lots of love in the cabin design. The driving position is excellent - standing type car - and the seats are better and more favorable than those of many small crosses. Cross stitch double skin tone that is struck in the top LTZ feels very luxurious. Instead, there is a space of adult size with good headroom and legroom pretty good (for class)), and back are adjustable for rake. There is plenty of room for things as well, with a retractable cargo cover, extensible network, and two deep wells cargo in the back, and center console is deep.
Equinox Crash Test points can brag a lot, has been named IIHS Top Safety Pick, and has earned a top four and five stars, the result of the federal government. For us, the biggest mistake of the Equinox is a truly frightening vision of the rear three-quarters in some ways even worse than many vehicles in this class, which appears to be higher beltlines. Fortunately, the rear-view camera is standard on LT and LTZ models, but all models are now (new 2012) to get blind-spot mirrors. Although lane departure warning and Forward Collision Warning is only available in 2012 - even if they are offered only to the V-6 LTZ.
For 2012 Chevrolet Equinox is the most of its rivals in terms of standard equipment, but it beats the well-optioned form. Air conditioning, a drive AM/FM/XM/CD/MP3 an auxiliary input, cruise control, power windows / locks / mirrors and steering wheel tilt / telescoping are all functions of the base LS. A rear entertainment system, navigation system, leather seats, heated seats, Bluetooth, steering wheel audio / telephone controls, a sunroof, a rearview camera and remote start are options. Some models are powered panel loading and can be easily programmed to open different heights (by helping to prevent the outbreak of the opening of a garage door or other structure).
Most models have a touch screen audio system this year, Chevrolet is also phasing in its voice command, touch screen-based system connectivity MyLink - to facilitate connectivity for hands-free calling and access to media - as a possibility, so before that model year vehicles this can be a bit hard to find.

2012 Chevrolet Sonic
For many years, domestic vehicles were most severe in the small car segment, but these days, the picture is very different, homegrown models are at the forefront both in sales and overall quality. The latest example of local talent is worthy of Sonic 2012 Chevrolet, a subcompact that replaces the Chevrolet Aveo in the range.
The name change was certainly in place in relation to the Aveo represents a leap forward in sound. Providing both a sedan and a four-door sedan, the Chevy has an attractive cottage, one of which is tolerable in the subcompact segment. Compared to competitors, Sonic offers a generous cabin storage, every square inch of space has been cleverly exploited, as demonstrated by the intelligent, unusually placed a pair of bins is located atop the center console. There is plenty of head and shoulders for front occupants, and a spacious second row to 6-footers comfortable - until there is another 6-footer in the front seat.
Things get even more interesting when you take a peek under the hood. 1.8-liter in-line-4 produces a healthy 138 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque, but even more desirable turbocharged 1.4-liter, this translates to more horsepower and torque, and a robust 148 pounds-feet, not you can find a car more HP or torque in this segment. Sonic handles engage in responsiveness and fuel economy is competitive, and the turbo engine gets about 40 mpg on the highway. Perhaps the most important thing for those who are downsizing to something bigger, it seems that Sonic would be much larger and considerably behind the wheel.
The subcompact class is not exactly hard for talent, and it would be wise to take a closer look some of Sonic's rivals. The redesigned Hyundai Accent offers style and excellent mileage, while Ford Fiesta brings a composed ride and sporty handling. It is also capable of Honda Fit, which serves as a recommendation on the strength of its versatile interior. Yet Sonics mixture of power, comfort and fuel economy are convincing enough to make this Chevy a serious contender in a very difficult segment.
In 2012, Sonic earns Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's highest honor Top Safety Pick, used the best score of the Agency, Good, in frontal, side, rear and roof strength test. To date, the Sonic has not been crash tested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Ten airbags are standard, including front, side and knee airbags for front passengers and side curtain airbags for front and rear passengers. Antilock brakes, stability and traction control are also standard.
