Chuck Hutton's 2018 Update: Spotlight on the New Models Movin' On In

The fourth quarter of the year is always a lively time here in Memphis, and one that is full of boot-quivering excitement. Announcements have been made about the models moving in, and customers are able to look over upgrades and new features. Many families come talk to us about being the provider of good tidings for those on their holiday wish list, and we are always more than pleased to help people bestow gifts. Here's a list of what to expect for the new year, and features that will be on some of the available goods.

When you opt for the ZR2 package on a 2018 Colorado, you now get the removal of most of the front bumper, and very able and knobby 31-inch tires. There are also new spool-valve shocks, larger front control arms and springs, and a wider rear axle to match the widened front track. Definitely a competitor for the likes of the Ford Raptor, you'll fall in love with this rock-hopping, trailblazing truck right away.

The Corvette is slated to enjoy its 65th birthday during 2018, and both the Carbon 65 special-edition and Z06 models celebrate this commemoration with ultra-cool new gray paint, carbon-fiber gadgetry, and the spirit of a champion contender built upon legends of fury and speed. A 700-hp plus V-8, very large rear wing, and new vents and slats all over the body all work together to keep this new Vette set current and appealing. This is a truly iconic vehicle, and everyone here at Chuck Hutton thinks that the updates are appropriate to keep it functional, dominating, and appealing.

The downsized and midsize crossover categories are some of the most popular that exist in the marketplace: scores of new car owners are choosing these for their family's lineup. The Equinox is also available with a 170-hp turbo 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder, and later in the year, a 1.6-liter turbo-diesel will join the ranks of the lineup. There are some great lease options on the Equinox, and the mpg stats are enticing many to snag one up!

The full-sized Express was another Chevy model that had been unchanged for years, and it will receive an update for the 2018 mile marker. Late this year, the Colorado Pickup's optional 2.8-liter 4-cylinder diesel was added to power the van, and next year there will be a swap from the Silverado: the 4.3-liter V-6 will now be inside. OnStar and hill-start assist will also be standard, and this will be a great addition to any tour, limo company, or exploration business that is in need of an able fleet.

Cruising in a new Tahoe for 2018 will offer the new option of the very aggressive Rally Sport Truck Kit. This exciting addition offers new monochromatic exterior trim, and the very ready-for-dust-and-forest 22-inch wheels. If you opt for the new Performance Package, you will stealthily acquire GM's 420-hp 6.2-liter V-8, and adaptive dampers from the finely tricked-out Cadillac Escalade. The newly-added package includes a 10-speed transmission, with enlarged and grippy Brembo brakes will run you a bit extra.

As far as the very able and high-selling Traverse is concerned, GM's three-row crossovers don't share their basic dimensions anymore. The new for 2018 model rides on a longer wheelbase, and has a few new glowing packaging improvements. Passengers will immediately notice more space, and the latest infotainment options to keep occupied. The 255-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four is exclusive to RS models, and all others come with the 305-hp V-6. Those who spend many hours on the open road will appreciate its new nine-speed transmission: seamless shifting and a very visually appealing design are going to move many units of the Traverse next year!
