It’s here! Miami Lakes Chevy has the all-new 2017 Chevy Bolt available! Unlike any other all electric vehicle on the market, the Chevy Bolt has an all electric range of 238 miles on a full charge and it is priced under $37,000.
The Chevy Bolt EV just hit the U.S. market in December 2016 and since its launch, there have been a whopping 8,000 units delivered. Last month, the Bolt’s sales were at an all time high — 1,642 units were sold. Sales are expected to grow as the vehicle reaches more markets and some dealers may have a hard time getting the Bolt, but luckily Miami Lakes Automall has two models available!
General Motors (GM) has some big news and we are super excited. GM is the first U.S manufacturer with a facility to mass produce self-driving cars and their first batch of mass produced cars was 130 Chevy Bolt EVs. The Chevy Bolt is already the longest range electric vehicle and now it is making even more strides.
This is what we know:
Calling all the gearheads out there, this one’s for you! The Chevy Camaro ZL1 goes from 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and completes the quarter-mile in 11.4 seconds. That is insanely fast! The Camaro ZL1 can take on the best dragsters at the drag strip, but it also handles and rides amazing as a daily driver. So, when it comes down to it, what makes the ZL1 be able to perform so well?
Introduced to the 2017 model year, the Chevy Bolt was and still is the most affordable long-range electric vehicle (EV) and new Bolt models are going to be at Miami Lakes Chevy in August.
General Motors (GM) recently announced that Bolt models will be in dealerships across the nation ahead of schedule. When the Bolt was first released, it was only selling in the EV friendly states of Oregon and California. Then, GM released the cars to about a dozen other states. At the end of May, sales tallied up to 6,592 units. Read the rest of this entry
Since the 2011 model year, almost all Chevy vehicles have a basic OnStar plan and today there are several different types of OnStar features and add-ons that Chevy owners and drivers can purchase to improve many aspects related to the driving experience. Here’s a closer look at all of the available OnStar plans and features. If you want to add any OnStar functions or plans on to your Chevy, come by Miami Lakes Chevy and we’ll assist you in getting set up.
Though the standard OnStar Basic Plan is free for the first five years of ownership, it is a pretty comprehensive plan. The basic plan includes “smart driver,” which is a feature that helps coach drivers into being better drivers (which can help lower car insurance premiums) and it includes a few features that informs drivers of the vehicle’s “health” as well as when it is in need of repair or routine maintenance. Owners can also use the OnStar basic plan to sync their vehicle up with a smartphone app, which makes it possible for users to remotely lock and unlock their vehicle. The basic plan also comes with OnStar AtYourService, which users can use to find the locations of restaurants, entertainment and shopping.
If you are a truck lover, chances are you are an adventure seeking, outdoor enthusiast. Unfortunately, sometimes finding that perfect off-road beast to fill your adventure needs can be a struggle, as they are very expensive. For example the Ford Raptor with standard features starts at roughly $48,860. Well, Chevy has a solution for consumers — the new Colorado ZR2.
The new 2017 Chevy Colorado ZR2 comes fully-loaded with all the features drivers need for off-roading. Priced at $40,995, the Colorado ZR2 is more than $7,000 less than the Ford Raptor and it is just as capable. So, hold out to buy your next off-roading truck until this the Colorado ZR2 is released this spring — it will be worth the wait.
The Colorado ZR2 is equipped with DSSV dampers that provide a two-inch lift. The truck has unique front control arms and its modified rear axle has a 3.42:1 crawling ratio. The truck rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, wrapped in 31-inch off-roading tires, and in case of tire or wheel damage, there is a spare tire mounted to the truck bed. Read the rest of this entry
Chevy is one of the most diverse automakers in the auto industry. Though they have a long heritage of making trucks, like the Silverado, or sportscars, like the Camaro and Corvette, Chevy isn’t afraid of evolving.
In the last few years, Chevy has been churning out several new fuel efficient models ranging from hybrids to diesels to electric cars and the newest addition is the all-new Chevy Cruze Diesel Sedan.
Unlike the all-new Bolt or the Volt, the new Chevy Cruze Diesel isn’t powered by electricity, it runs on diesel fuel. Diesel fuel is nothing new, but Chevy’s new model is so fuel efficient, an average of 52 mpg on the highway, it feels like it is a new technology. Read the rest of this entry
