Chevy Saves Drivers on Fuel Costs With Clean Diesel Power

BRADENTON, Fla. - April 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Chevy is paving the way for better fuel economy in vehicles with the upcoming release of the 2014 Cruze Diesel, as well as the 2013 Silverado 3500HD (http://www.coxchevy.com/new-inventory/#_Model[]=silverado) Turbocharged Diesel, available now at Cox Chevy in Bradenton. In the past, diesel engines may have been associated with noxious emission, but thanks to recent advancements in power train technology, today's diesel systems are running more cleanly than their gasoline powered counterparts.

Cox Chevy in Bradenton is looking forward to receiving the 2014 Cruze Diesel, and they are pleased to continue to offer the 2013 Silverado 3500HD Turbocharged Diesel model. Drivers interested in either are encouraged to visit the dealership (http://www.coxchevy.com/directions-hours/) to learn more.

The 2014 Cruze Diesel will utilize a 2.0L turbocharged clean diesel engine with a strong power output of 148 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque at low RPMs. This low-end torque means the Cruze Diesel will have strong acceleration, making it easier to get up to highway speeds. The 'clean' designation means the Chevy Cruze Diesel will emit at least 90% less nitrous oxide compounds and other particulate emissions than prior automobile diesel engines.

One of the largest benefits of owning at Silverado 3500HD Diesel is the incredible amount of power it affords its drivers. With the available 6.6L V8 Turbo-Diesel engine, the Silverado has an amazing power output of 765 lb-ft of torque at only 1600 rpm. This means that the Silverado 3500HD has a max payload capacity of 4585 pounds and a max trailering capacity of 24,500 pounds.

The current Chevy Cruze has been chosen as a Top Safety Pick 2013 by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, an industry hallmark for vehicles' abilities to protect their passengers. A strong body and a full system of airbags help to protect passengers in the event of a crash. Active safety features such as electronic stability control and traction control help to keep the Cruze and its passengers out of harm’s way.
