Chevrolet Express Explorers become the first choice for small businesses
Small businesses looking for cargo van transportation used to be forced to pick from just a handful of choices. Those choices were typically built on top of a heavy pickup truck chassis with old, inefficient engine technology that guzzled gas. The cargo vans of yesteryear were known for their cramped cockpits, narrow cargo bays and general unfriendliness. The days of endless compromise are over; the 2015 Chevrolet Express Explorer is available and it has earned the title of “workhorse”.
The Express Explorer cargo van was created for hard work and designed to work hard. Power for the express is provided by Vortec gasoline power plants (including the remarkable Duramax 6.6L V8 turbo-diesel), with torque delivered to the pavement through the Hydra-Matic 6L90 six-speed automatic transmission. The van is easy to maneuver and is built on a strong, ladder-type full frame architecture. The frame features full boxed sections for greater strength and rigidity, while extended and taped front frame rails are used for improved crashworthiness.
The Express Explorer has Hydroboost four-wheel disc brakes with ABS and dynamic rear proportioning, StabiliTrak electronic stability control, dual front airbags, steel side door beams, a tire pressure monitoring system, PASS-Key III theft deterrent system, and available locking rear differential. You’ll always know for sure that your employees and inventory are safe.
The interior Driver Information Center even provides drivers with instructions to replace the fuel filter, clean the exhaust filter, and service the air conditioning system; warnings when the transmission is hot, traction control is disengaged, the fuel level is low, and a vehicle theft has been attempted; reminders when a turn signal has been left on, the gas cap has not been properly tightened and that the vehicle’s top speed is limited. Put simply, the Express Explorer does your worrying for you so that you can rest easy and focus on growing your business.
Commercial van sales are up (over 50% in the past year) because business owners know that vans offer peace of mind in more ways than one. No matter where employees drive them – for delivery, service or sales – inventory locked up in a van is far more secure than it would be in the bed of a pickup.
