2012 Chevrolet Traverse vs Ford Explorer

2012 Chevrolet Tarverse vs Ford Explorer Safety: For improved safety, the front shoulder belts of the Chevrolet Traverse are height-adjustable, and the middle and rear seat shoulder belts have child comfort guides to move the belt to properly fit children. The Ford Explorer doesn’t offer comfort guides on its middle or rear seat belts. The Chevrolet Traverse has Daytime Running Lights to help keep it more visible under all conditions. The Explorer doesn’t offer Daytime Running Lights. The Traverse has a standard “limp home system” to keep drivers from being stranded if most or all of the engine’s coolant is lost. The engine will run on only half of its cylinders reduce its power and light a warning lamp on the dashboard so the driver can get to a service station for repairs. The Explorer doesn’t offer a lost coolant limp home mode, so a coolant leak could strand you or seriously damage the truck’s engine. Being stranded on the side of the road can also be a safety hazard—putting you in greater danger of a collision while stranded. 2012 Chevrolet Traverse Engine And Performance: The Traverse LS and LT’s standard 3.6L DOHC V6 produces 41 more horsepower than the Explorer’s optional 2.0L turbo engine. Moreover, the Traverse’s 3.6L DOHC V6 also produces 11 lbs.-ft. more torque than the Explorer’s standard 3.5 DOHC V6. The Traverse’s 3.6 DOHC V6 also produces 15 lbs.-ft. more torque than the Explorer’s standard 3.5 DOHC V6. The Travers delivers up to 5,200 pounds of towing capacity. The Explorer delivers 200 pounds less for its towing capacity. The Traverse includes 3.4 gallons more fuel capacity than the Explorer—giving the Traverse a larger driving range than the Explorer. 2012 Chevrolet Traverse Suspension and Handling: For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the Traverse’s wheelbase is 6.3 inches longer than on the Explorer (118.9 inches vs. 112.6 inches). The Chevrolet Traverse’s wheels have 6 lugs for longer wheel bearing life, less chance of rotor warping and greater strength. The Ford Explorer only has 5 wheel lugs per wheel. Interior: The Traverse has standard seating for 8 passengers; the Explorer can only carry up to 7. The Traverse also has more front legroom, more front hip room, more front shoulder room; more rear hip room, more rear shoulder room, more third row hip room and finally more third row shoulder room than the Explorer. So it’s clear that the Traverse grants passengers a more comfortable spacious ride experience than the Explorer. The Traverse’s cargo area provides more volume than the Explorer. The Traverse offers over 20 more cubic feet of storage room when its third seat is folded than the Explorer offers with its third seat folded. When the Traverse’s second seat is folded it offers nearly 40 more cubic feet of storage capacity than the Explorer when its second seat is folded! 2012 Chevrolet Traverse Convenience: The Traverse has a standard automatic headlight on/off feature. When the ignition is on, the headlights automatically turn on at dusk and off after dawn. When the ignition turns off, the headlights turn off after a delay timed to allow you to securely get to your front door. The Explorer only offers a similar automatic headlight feature on its most expensive model. The Traverse LTZ automatically tilts both rearview mirrors when put in reverse to give a better view when backing up—making it easier to parallel park and safer to back up generally. Shifting out of reverse puts the mirrors into their original positions. The Explorer’s mirrors don’t automatically adjust when backing up. The Traverse offers optional automatic dimming rear and side view mirrors that automatically darken when headlights shine on them, keeping following vehicles from blinding the driver. The Explorer has an automatic rear view mirror, but fails to provide diming side mirrors. Awards: The Chevrolet Traverse has won awards from Consumer Reports and has received the “Best Bet” award from Car Book. The Explorer hasn’t been recognized by either of these publications. Warranty: In the end, you know that you are guaranteed nothing short of total excellence with the Chevy Traverse because it’s backed by the full confidence of Chevrolet’s industry-leading powertrain warranty—which covers the Traverse 40,000 miles longer than Ford covers the Explorer! The Traverse’s corrosion warranty is also 1 year longer than the Explorer’s. Clearly, if Ford was as confident in its Explorer as Chevrolet is in its Traverse, then Ford would offer an equivalent guarantee—but Ford doesn’t. At Art Gamblin Motors, we are so pleased to know that the Chevy Traverse offers the greatest performance, versatility, handling and safety of any vehicle in its segment. Because of this, we are confident that you will find that the Traverse meets and even exceeds your expectations and needs. So we invite you to come test drive a new Chevrolet Traverse with us here in Enumclaw Washington and experience the Traverse’s high level of performance and value for yourself. You will surely appreciate our welcoming pressure-free environment staffed by friendly expert sales associates. Most importantly though, we have been family owned and operated for over 40 years, which is why we treat all our customers as family.

The Traverse LTZ automatically tilts both rearview mirrors when put in reverse to give a better view when backing up—making it easier to parallel park and safer to back up generally. Shifting out of reverse puts the mirrors into their original positions. The Explorer’s mirrors don’t automatically adjust when backing up. The Traverse offers optional automatic dimming rear and side view mirrors that automatically darken when headlights shine on them, keeping following vehicles from blinding the driver. The Explorer has an automatic rear view mirror, but fails to provide diming side mirrors. Awards: The Chevrolet Traverse has won awards from Consumer Reports and has received the “Best Bet” award from Car Book. The Explorer hasn’t been recognized by either of these publications. Warranty: In the end, you know that you are guaranteed nothing short of total excellence with the Chevy Traverse because it’s backed by the full confidence of Chevrolet’s industry-leading powertrain warranty—which covers the Traverse 40,000 miles longer than Ford covers the Explorer! The Traverse’s corrosion warranty is also 1 year longer than the Explorer’s.

2012 Chevrolet Volt Ride & Handling

All of us at Art Gamblin Motors are energized about the Chevrolet Volt’s excellent electric efficiency and performance, but we are also very impressed with the Volt’s delightful to drive experience and secure handling. The Volt has been designed with a Body Frame Integral made of high grade steel that combines the body and frame of the Volt into one cohesive unit. This makes the Volt stiff, allowing engineers to more easily fine-tune the entire car. The result is the tight-handling Chevrolet Volt. The Volt has an independent front suspension made of many high quality parts like MacPherson brand struts and weight optimized forged aluminum. The rear suspension of the Volt is specifically designed to be light weight and high performing. In fact the rear suspension of the Sonic weighs 10% less than commonly used traditional torsion beam suspensions. The result is the Volts fast, responsive performance and drivability. 

The power steering on the Volt runs on the car’s 12V system, which maximizes horsepower, performance and efficiency. The Volt uses 4-wheel ABS disk breaks making for precise and responsive braking even in an emergency. The Volt also harnesses braking power with its electro-hydraulic regenerative brake system—transferring energy to the brakes into the Volt’s battery. The Volt comes standard with forged aluminum wheels made with a forged and flow-form process used in making racing wheels. The Volt is equipped standard with the StabiliTrack Stability Control System, which automatically engage the Volt’s traction and braking systems if the vehicle does not exactly follow the drivers intended path. The Volt also uses a traction control system that prevents wheel spin.

All of the above factors are just a sampling of the features that make the handling and drive experience of the Volt Exceptional.

2012 Chevrolet Volt Charging

At Art Gamblin Motors in Enumclaw Washington, we are eager to offer the easily charged 2012 Chevrolet Volt. Charging a Chevrolet Volt is simple, efficient and inexpensive. You can charge your new Chevrolet Volt with a standard 120V dedicated household outlet. This is the common circuit found in most homes and will take about 10 hours to fully charge your Volt. A faster way to charge your Volt is with a 240V dedicated outlet. This is the same type of household outlet used for clothes dryers. This type of outlet will charge your Volt in just 4 hours. Chevrolet’s home charging partner, SPX, offers a 240V charging station that can be installed in your home as well. The Volt is also equipped with a standard charging system that allows it to use any public charging station.

Electricity is a very cost-effective way to power your vehicle. Factoring in the average price of electricity in America, it only costs around 1.50$ per day in electricity costs to travel up not 40 miles daily in a Chevy Volt. 1.50$ is already an extraordinarily low cost, but even this small expense can be reduced through the Volt’s delayed rate of departure charge setting. In this charging mode the Volt calculates charging time based on utility peak costs and your planned departure time as well. The delayed departure time charging mode charges your Volt based on your indicated schedule. Finally, the immediate charging mode begins charging as soon as the Volt is connected to an outlet. Although charging a Chevy Volt is most efficient when done regularly, your Chevy Volt will still function regularly on a charge even after months of not being plugged in.

2012 Chevrolet Volt vs Toyota Prius

 The Toyota Prius is a hybrid vehicle capable of running continuously solely on electric power for only one mile, which also requires that the Prius be moving at low speeds. The Prius has four equipment levels, although they all share an identical powertrain.

 Power and Performance: The Prius is a hybrid vehicle, which uses a constantly shifting mix of electric and gasoline power. The Chevrolet Volt is a real electric vehicle that uses electricity to provide its power all the time. This allows the Chevy Volt to travel 35 miles in all-electric zero-emission mode before uses its gasoline powered generator. The Prius can only accomplish fully electric operations with zero-emissions for 1 mile and it must do so at low speeds. The horsepower rating of the Volt is 149. That is 15 more horsepower than the Prius’ 134 horsepower rating. This allows the Volt to do 0-60 mph in under nine seconds as opposed to the Prius, which takes almost 10 seconds to do the same thing. The battery used in the Prius is made of nickel-hydride. The Volt uses a lithium-ion battery, which stores more electricity, is safer and also better for the environment. The steering system in the Volt is also superior to the Prius due to the electric power steering motor being mounted directly to the steering racks. Volt’s also come standard with 17” wheels whereas only the most expensive Prius comes with 17” wheels. 

Comfort and Convenience: The Volt offers the Chevrolet MyLink system with voice recognition and direct connectivity to online programs such as Pandora. The Prius offers nothing comparable to this. The Chevy Volt has more hip and shoulder room than the Prius, which makes for a more comfortable ride, a standard remote start and keyless access system. The Prius has these features in a limited form, available only on its more expensive models. 

 
Safety and Security: The Volt has 8 airbags standard while the Prius has only 7. In crash tests conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Volt has easily outperformed the Toyota Prius. Included among the universal safety superiority of the Volt over the Prius is the Volt’s 5-star roll-over rating as opposed to the Prius’ 4-star rating. One of the many factors contributing to its superior safety over the Prius is the Volt’s 500-740 pounds of extra weight over the Prius, which the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says is a key factor is better safety over lighter counterparts.

 Quality, Reliability and Durability: The engine of the Volt uses a cast iron block as opposed the Prius’ aluminum engine block. Aluminum is much more prone to warping and cracking than cast iron. Chevrolet’s powertrain warranty covers the Volt 40,000 miles longer than Toyota covers the Prius. The powertrain warranty on the Chevy Volt is 40,000 miles longer than the protection offered by the Prius; the Volt’s corrosion warranty is 1 year longer than the Prius’; and finally, there are roughly 4 times as many Chevrolet dealers as there are Toyota dealers. This makes getting your vehicle serviced by a Chevrolet warranty much easier than getting service for a Prius.

 Awards: J.D. Power and Associates rated the Volt first among compact cars in owner reported satisfaction. The Prius has yet to make it into the top three. The Volt was picked as one of Car and Driver’s “Top Ten” in 2011. Motor Trend chose the Volt as 2011 Car of the Year. The Volt earned 2011 Car of the Year by Automobile Magazine.

2012 Chevrolet Volt Style & Design

Here at Art Gamblin Motors we are at the cutting edge of electric vehicle technology. This is why we are proud to introduce the sleek new Chevrolet Volt. The Volt strikes a perfect balance between aerodynamic efficiency, proven in wind tunnel and practical tests with a 0.28 coefficient of drag, and sophisticated modern style making the Volt a gorgeous new sedan as well. The Chevy Volt has a single-arc roofline, micro body gaps of 3mm or less, an aerodynamic dual-port grill; a drag-reducing rear spoiler and sharp rear edges for even more added aerodynamic efficiency. These exterior features are just a sampling of the design and style that makes the Volt the beautiful looking sedan that it is, but also contributes to the superior aerodynamic efficiency of the Volt—just one of the many incredible factors that make this car so fuel efficient and revolutionary. 

  

While it is true that the Volt offers ground-breaking electric  efficiency, it is also clear that the Volt is a sedan with the look and feel of an ultra-modern high performance luxury vehicle. Everything from the lighting recess to the projector beam headlamps of the Volt reinforces its state-of-the-art appearance.

2012 Chevrolet Volt Safety

2012 Chevrolet Volt Safety

  

We know at Art Gamblin Motors that safety is vital for all of our customers. So we are thrilled to offer the Chevrolet Volt with its comprehensive 5-star National Highway Traffic Safety Administration overall safety rating and an Insurance Institute of Highway Safety Top Safety Pick award. Avoiding a collision is of course the first priority of Chevrolet safety features and the Volt embodies this principal fully. The driver information center of the Volt displays the tire pressure of each tire, alerting you to any tires that aren’t properly inflated. The innovative StabiliTrak Stability Control System in the Volt automatically engages traction and braking controls if the vehicle fails to follow the drivers intended course. The traction control system of the Chevy Volt prevents wheel spin and the standard 4-wheel antilock brakes ensure great responsive stopping capacity. And daytime running lamps will help other drivers on the road see the Volt better. These are just a sampling of the features that will help you avoid a collision in the first case.          

However, in the event of any emergencies, you can be confident knowing that the three-point safety belts and the anchor tethers for child safety seats will keep all passengers secure in the Volt. But if a collision did occur in a Chevrolet Volt, you can be confident in the advanced safety focused construction of the vehicle to provide the best protection possible. The uniform body and frame of the Volt is constructed of almost 80% high-strength steel. Ultra-high-strength Boron steel used in the A, B, and C pillars of the Volt provide incredible roof strength and side impact and rollover protection. In case of side impact, you will also be protected in the Volt by ultra-high-strength Martensite steel used in the rocker panels spanning the entire car. The battery of the Volt is also encased in ultra-high-strength steel. The Volt uses 8 airbags in case of collision, but also uses a passenger sensing system to disable frontal airbags to protect smaller adults that could be injured by them. These are just samplings of the amazing quality in materials and design that went into making the Chevrolet Volt as safe as possible.

Knowing all of this it should be no surprise that the Volt is an Insurance Institute of Highway Safety Top Safety Pick and earned a 5-star National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rating. Come test drive a Chevrolet Volt with us today here at Art Gamblin Motors in Enumclaw Washington and see for yourself why we are the top online rated Chevrolet dealer in the State! You will be welcomed in our pressure-free environment and served by our friendly and expert sales associates.
