The best selling brand from General Motors will make another
appearance at the New York International Auto Show. Chevrolet will be
rolling out two concept vehicles at the forthcoming motor show. These
vehicles will be featuring what could be the future of Chevy vehicles.
It
is known that concept vehicles are loaded with features that are in the
development stage and will in the course of time be integrated into
mass produced vehicles. The two concepts from Chevrolet are going to do
just that.
Aside from showing the auto world where the brand is
going in terms of design for their vehicles, Chevrolet will also give
consumers a glimpse of what could be the future of automobiles.
The
first of the pair is the Chevy Volt concept electric vehicle. The
concept vehicle is a plug-in electric vehicle which means that it comes
with an on board battery pack which can be recharged using a common
household socket. The vehicle is designed to make the best out of its
battery pack designed to provide power for 40 miles of travel. That
figure covers the average mileage of an American motorist in one day.
Aside
from its plug in capability, the vehicle also has a "range extender".
This is essentially a small internal combustion engine mated to a
generator which charges the car's Lithium-ion battery pack. With this
"range extender", the vehicle's 40 mile range increases significantly to
640 miles.
This newest version of the Volt features the radical
E-Flex Propulsion System by General Motors. The feature allows the
vehicle to run on a variety of fuels including electricity, conventional
gasoline, E85, and biodiesel. The Volt's features will surely be made
better if complemented with EBC Redstuff brake pads.
The second
Chevy concept vehicle is the Chevy Camaro Concept. This concept version
of Chevy's pony car is a convertible which gives the Camaro high
aesthetic value. The concept convertible which will make an appearance
on the Big Apple is daubed with the Hugger Orange pearl tri-coat paint.
The
iconic sport stripes are also present including the long hood
configuration common on all pony car as started by the Ford Mustang.
The wheels of the Camaro are almost pushed to the corners, giving the
Camaro the impression of being ready to burn asphalt at a second's
notice. Indeed, this Camaro can rev it up along with the finest car in
its class. Its V8 engine provides adequate power to its rear wheels via
a sporty manual transmission. This is a car that would definitely
receive much adoration from Camaro fans and will probably gain new ones
along the way.
