According to Chevrolet, the new 2015 City Express cargo van will achieve a combined EPA-estimated 25 mpg, including 24 mpg in city driving. The van is estimated to receive 26 mpg on the highway, Chevrolet said.
The City Express features a 2.0L dual-overhead cam inline-four-cylinder engine matched to a continuously variable transmission allows the vehicle to achieve greater efficiency on the road, especially when driving in the city, the company pointed out.
“The 2015 Chevrolet City Express is designed for our customers who are looking for a small, easy-to-maneuver, fuel-efficient, cargo-carrying vehicle,” said Ed Peper, U.S. vice president, GM Fleet & Commercial. “The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business.”
The vehicle includes a two-year/24,000-mi. (whichever comes first) standard maintenance.
The 2015 Chevrolet City Express LS starts at $22,950 MSRP excluding tax, title, license, optional equipment and dealer fees.
