A new seventh-generation (C7) Corvette is at least three years away. That means the current C6 Vette will have to soldier on for nine, possibly ten, full model years. To keep the old girl fresh, Chevy will continue coining limited-edition packages and model variations to juggle the storehouse of engines, transaxles, frames, bodystyles, and chassis components developed for the sixth generation.inline_mediumwraptextright28344964/features/news/1003_2011_chevrolet_corvette_z06_carbon_edition1003_01_z+2011_chevrolet_corvette_z06_carbon_edition+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue

General Motors' small-block V-8s are the Rolling Stones of engines. Over the last six decades, nearly 100 million of them have been built to power cars and trucks sold by eight American GM brands plus a slew of race cars, hot rods, boats, and a few homebuilt aircraft. To keep a thumb on the small-block's pulse, we gave a pair of them a run through our rigorous test regimen.inline_mediumwraptextright27925492/reviews/driven/1003_specter_werkes_corvette_gtr_vs_slp_camaro_zl5751003_01_z+2010_chevrolet_SLP_camaro_zL575+front_view.jpgTrue

There aren't many visual reminders that the 2011 Chevrolet Silverado HD trucks are virtually all new beneath the sheetmetal. If we were talking about a midsize sedan that might be a problem, but truck owners will be happy all the development money went into a new Duramax engine, an all-new frame, and significant upgrades to payload and towing capacities instead of new body panels.

Chevrolet isn't just showing off its new 2011 Silverado HD here in Chicago. The old Suburban gets a special edition package to commemorate its 75-year production run and place as the ultimate, if not original, SUV.inline_mediumwraptextright28050673/features/news/1002_2010_75th_anniversary_diamond_edition_chevrolet_suburban2010-75th-anniversary-diamond-edition-chevrolet-suburban-side.jpgTrue

In the long history of hype, the Chevy Volt is the consummate media star. From its 2007 show debut, to its evolution into a practical production design, to its current status as GM's Hail Mary savior, the Volt hauls a Peterbilt's worth of baggage. Now that we've had an opportunity to drive a developmental prototype using both electrical and combustion forms of energy conversion, it's time to see if the Volt really deserves all the attention heaped upon it for the past three years.inline_mediumwraptextright27882928/green/reviews/1001_2011_chevrolet_volt_integration_vehicle1001_02_z+2011_chevrolet_volt+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue
