Introducing The All-New 2018 Chevy Traverse


Chevrolet is in the process of revamping their crossover and SUV lineup and next on the list is the Chevy Traverse. The all-new 2018 Chevrolet Traverse is set to debut next month at the North American International Auto Show, which takes place in Detroit.

The Traverse will be joining the 2017 Bolt EV and Trax, the 2018 Tahoe and Suburban, and the 2018 Equinox, which was revealed in September. The new and improved SUV will feature a bold, sleek interior and will seat up to eight passengers. The Traverse is also expected to offer the best third-row legroom and cargo space in its segment.

“Nobody in the industry offers a broader, fresher lineup of SUVs and crossovers than Chevrolet,” stated Alan Batey, president of GM North American and brand chief of Global Chevrolet. “From the all-electric Bolt EV to America’s longest-running nameplate, Suburban, we’ve got something for every customer and lifestyle.”

If you’re on the hunt for a new crossover or SUV, Chevy is the way to go! Our team at Chuck Hutton Chevrolet in Memphis, TN would be happy to assist you so stop in and see us today!

Chevy Bolt Is GM's Testbed For Autonomous Driving


As if we weren’t already impressed with the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV’s 238-mile range, the vehicle is now the testbed for GM’s autonomous driving technologies.

Earlier in the year, GM began testing the autonomous Bolt EV prototypes on the public streets of San Francisco and Scottsdale, Arizona. And now the vehicle will begin testing on the roads of Michigan, according to a recent announcement made by GM. The company also has plans to build this next-generation autonomous Bolt EV at its Orion Assembly Plant.

“Revolutionizing transportation for our customers while improving safety on roads is the goal of our autonomous vehicle technology, and today’s announcement gets us one step closer to making this vision a reality,” stated GM CEO Mary Barra. “Our autonomous technology will be reliable and safe, as customers have come to expect from any of our vehicles.”

As safety is the top priority when testing prototypes such as this, safety engineers will be behind the wheel and ready to take over in case of an emergency during the first tests of the autonomous Bolt EVs.

The future holds some big things, if you ask us! Although you can’t quite yet get your hands on the autonomous version, you can stop in and see us at Chuck Hutton Chevrolet in Memphis, TN to get behind the wheel of the all-electric 2017 Bolt EV today!

The Best Look Yet At The 2018 Corvette ZR-1



The arrival of the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 is getting closer and closer and new spy photos have us more excited than ever. Typically sporting plenty of camouflage, the now barely-covered road car has us thinking this could be the brand’s best yet.

Up until now, fake panels and coverings made it difficult for us to grasp the true silhouette of the highly-anticipated ZR-1. However, we’re now able to see a bulging hood and revamped front end, complete with three large intakes and a massive splitter. The rear features a huge wing and spoiler.

Anybody else thinking what we’re thinking? Considering the larger hood, it is likely that the supercharger of the ZR-1 will be larger than the 1.7-liter version of the current Z06. It is also likely that this beast will bust out more than 700 horsepower. We’ll have to wait until the Detroit Auto Show next month to find out for sure.

If you’re a Memphis ‘Vette fanatic, you’re probably just as eager as us to get behind the wheel of the 2018 Corvette ZR-1. Since we have a bit of a wait, be sure to come by and see us at Chuck Hutton Chevy to check out our current lineup!
