Chevrolet Silverado Most Awarded Pickup of 2014

Since its launch in mid-2013, the Chevrolet Silverado has been impressing Bismarck-Mandan residents and the critics alike. So much so, that fans and critics alike have given the 2014 Silverado more awards than any other pickup truck in the industry.

Both light- and heavy-duty models have taken no less than 14 awards for 2014, including the prestigious North American Truck of the Year Award presented by the North American International Auto Show.

More importantly – and possibly even more impressive – is the amount of awards that were awarded to Silverado as a direct result of the interest and admiration of potential Bismarck-Mandan buyers. These include the Edmunds.com Most Popular Vehicle award, which is given to the vehicle in each segment whose research pages are visited the most by Edmunds.com visitors.

Probably most impactful to Kupper Chevrolet's customers, and their wallets, is the various awards given to the Silverado for its low cost of ownership. Kelley Blue Book named the Silverado 1500 in the top ten vehicles in its Best Resale Value Awards across all segments, and the Silverado contributed to Vincentric naming Chevrolet the Best Value Truck Brand in America.

These awards are largely due to Silverado’s innovative technologies tailored to the way customers use full-size pickups, providing the power, efficiency, refinement and dependability they expect from their trucks, such as:

• EcoTec3 engines that provide class-leading V-8 fuel efficiency and towing capability, without the cost and complexity of turbocharging
• High-strength steel that makes the frames and cabs stronger and lighter, yet can take the pounding of towing, hauling and off-road operation, year after year
• The strategic use of aluminum alloys to reduce the weight of engines, front suspension components, hoods and other parts
• New interiors featuring ample storage, multiple power and USB connections and available high-wear cloth for bench or bucket seats
• Chevrolet MyLink, which provides powerful connectivity for work or family with simple, intuitive controls.

INTRODUCING THE ALL-NEW 2015 TRAX

Go from Street Smart, to Street GeniusLife in the city moves fast, and the all-new Chevrolet Trax can help you make the most of every turn. With its agile handling, ample cargo room and the latest technology, Trax makes every day a new adventure. 

Made to Make MovesWith a bold, sculpted look
The all-new 2015 Trax gives you the best of both worlds: the versatility of an SUV and the maneuverability to park on city streets. With an elevated view of the road, you can take command of your city’s streets. And with the signature Chevrolet dual-port grille, swept-back headlights and available chrome accents, the Trax small SUV is sure to turn heads wherever you go.

Interior ComfortsStep inside Trax and you’ll find everything you need to make the road trip of life as comfortable as a five-block commute. Available six-way power driver’s seat. Even available heated front seats for when the polar vortex pops in for a visit. Plus, with 15 available storage areas, including a two-tier glove box and an array of cubbies, consoles and cupholders, Trax has a spot for every item you just can’t do without.

Room for EverythingOffering 8 different seating configurations, Trax gives you room to take more of your life on the road. The fold-flat front passenger seat and the 60/40 split-folding rear seats give you more options to fit that brand new bike or that new-to-you antique dresser in the back. There’s even an available hidden storage area under the front passenger seat and a storage area under the cargo floor if you just can’t leave for the dog park without all 16 of Rusty’s chew toys.

Turbocharge Your CommutePower meets efficiency
Trax is smaller than the typical SUV, making it easier to maneuver and park on city streets. But don’t let its size fool you — the all-new 2015 Trax has confident power under the hood. The 1.4L ECOTEC engine is turbocharged, increasing power generation while simultaneously enhancing efficiency.

The Ultimate Mobile HotspotTrax is expected to be the only vehicle in its class to offer available 4G LTE connectivity through OnStar®†. When equipped with 4G LTE, Trax becomes the most reliable mobile connection available — a more powerful connection than even a smartphone or mobile hotspot. The powerful signal gives you and your passengers the ability to seamlessly connect up to seven smart devices to the Internet. So you can easily look up that new Thai place or the secret record store your friends haven’t even heard of yet.

Grip the Road with AWDWhen wanderlust strikes, Trax can take you into the wild, or just down the street to your local yoga studio. Its available on-demand electronically controlled All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system provides extra traction and maneuverability when city driving conditions are challenging. When it isn't needed, the intelligent AWD system automatically shifts into Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) to maximize efficiency.
