The Award-Winning Chevrolet Lineup | Bellefontaine, OH
At Steve Austin’s Auto Group, we think Chevy vehicles are some of the best, and we’re not the only ones who think that. Chevrolet’s diverse, advanced lineup of cars, trucks, and SUVs has been recognized by countless respected publications for its reliability, performance, and general superiority. Check out just a few of the awards Chevy vehicles have taken home.
Silverado 1500
Chevrolet’s flagship pickup is not only tough, flexible, and stylish, it’s also received recognition from automotive research company Kelley Blue Book. In 2020, KBB gave the Chevy Silverado 1500 a Best Resale Value Award. The truck can retain its value well over time, which is important if you intend to sell your truck after several years of ownership.
The KBB also gave the Silverado 1500 a 5-Year Cost to Own award in the full-size pickup truck segment. This award shows that the Silverado 1500 makes a great choice for budget-conscious pickup lovers who don’t want to be saddled with unexpected repair and maintenance bills.
Silverado HD
Like the light-duty Silverado, the Silverado HD has received accolades for its excellence. The Silverado HD also won KBB’s Best Resale Value designation — though it won for the full-size pickup category in both 2020 and 2019.
ALG gave the Silverado HD its Innovation Award in 2020. The pickup won for its game-changing integrated trailer camera system that offers as many as 15 distinct views to help you back up, hitch a trailer, or drive with a trailer. Equipment Today also named the Silverado HD one of the 2019 Contractors’ Top 50 New Products, showing that the truck is a suitable pick for hard work.
Suburban
The Suburban was completely redesigned for 2021, and several publications have shown appreciation for the family hauler’s thorough makeover. The editors at Car and Driver gave the all-new Suburban a spot on its 2021 Editors’ Choice List, recognizing it as the best large SUV of 2021. Unsurprisingly, U.S. News & World Report also named the Suburban the 2021 Best Large SUV for Families.
Traverse
The three-row Traverse has long been recognized as one of the most family-friendly vehicles on the road, and it has the accolades to prove it. The Chevrolet Traverse has been given high rankings by the two leading vehicle safety institutions – the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety – because it performs well in crash tests. The SUV also comes standard with a plethora of advanced driver assistance technologies, so you can feel more at ease driving your family around Ohio.
Equinox
The Equinox is another great option for families, and its wide range of awards is proof of that. The Equinox made Cars.com’s 2020 Car Seat Check Honor Roll as one of the Best New Cars for Car Seats. That’s because of its easy-to-use car seat system that makes buckling your kid in safely a breeze. The Equinox was also recognized as one of Parents Magazine’s Best Cars for Teen Drivers in 2020 because of its advanced Teen Driver technology and won the magazine’s 2020 Best Family Cars for its steering system.
Trax
Parents Magazine also honored the Chevrolet Trax by naming the peppy SUV to its list of Best Family Cars and Best Cars for Teen Drivers. Whether your teen just got their license or is heading off to college, the Trax makes an excellent choice for a first vehicle because of its nimble handling and flexible cargo space. Parents of children of all ages will also love knowing that the Trax has earned the NHTSA’s 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score.
