The Chevrolet Express sees a host of duties: as a proven passenger hauler – able to
accommodate up to 15 passengers – as the foundation for conversion vans and as a
durable and reliable commercial cargo van. As such, Express customers rely on their
vehicles to haul and tow items. That task becomes even easier for 2006 with the
introduction of the Duramax 6600 turbo-diesel V-8 engine. This sophisticated diesel
engine offers more horsepower and torque than the primary competitor, as well as a
quieter driving experience and better projected fuel economy. It's available on
G2500 and G3500 series cargo and cutaway models.
"With the inherent capabilities of a diesel engine and excellent fuel economy, the
Duramax 6600 is a win-win scenario for Express Cargo Van customers," said Ray
Chess, vehicle line executive. "This engine also is quiet, refined and delivers a
smoothness that is unexpected in a powerful diesel-powered vehicle."
The Duramax 6600 delivers 250 horsepower (186 kw) and a class-leading 460 lb.-ft.
of torque (624 Nm). It is teamed with the Hydra-Matic 4L85-E electronically
controlled four-speed automatic transmission, which is specially tuned for
diesel-engine compatibility, giving Express exceptional towing and grade
capability. It's available on G2500 and G3500 Express Cargo Van models.
Thoughtful details are found throughout Express – items that become important to
customers who use their van as a mobile office. This includes supportive front
seats, excellent interior lighting, glove-friendly door handles, convenient storage
pockets, secondary power outlets and durable carpeting. Also, an industry-first
60/40-split left-hand side-hinged door provides the segment's most flexible loading
capability. It is available on regular-length cargo vans and offers complete
driver's side access to the second-row and/or seats or cargo compartment.
