2009 Chevy Avalanche Highlights

Chevy Avalanche keeps the same basic looks for 2009, but head out to dealer lots and you'll find updates to its trim, plus changes inside and under the hood, like a new 6-speed transmission with two overdrive gears that enhance fuel economy by letting the engine run at lower rpms. In another fuel-saving effort, Chevy gave Avalanche a 5.3L V-8 engine equipped with Active Fuel Management. It's standard on the 2009 pickups, and switches the engine from 8-cylinder to 4-cylinder operation when extra power isn't necessary.
