2015 Chevrolet Express LS

The Express is Chevrolet's full-size van, the one you see as work trucks and shuttles, and it's built for hauling people or cargo. It's a big van, but it handles surprisingly well for its size, and it has plenty of power to merge onto highways or pull a loaded trailer. Inside, the cabin is plain and functional, with a huge cargo area that can swallow more than a box truck. Some owners have dealt with electrical gremlins and a noisy ride, so expect a few quirks if you're buying used. The LS adds a nicer cloth interior and front air conditioning over the base Work Van, but you still get the same strong 4.8L I8 and six-speed automatic. The 4.8L I8 makes 285 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, which is plenty for hauling a full load of passengers or cargo, though the fuel economy is 13 mpg combined. This trim seats 12 seats as standard, so it's ready for shuttle duty or a big crew right off the lot.
