Sell My Chevrolet Express (Chevrolet Reviews and Articles)

The Chevrolet Express is the model name for the no frills cargo and passenger vans first introduced in 1997. The Express replaced the simply yet aptly named Chevrolet Van and Sportvan. From the 1970's until the introduction of the Express in 1997, the full-size working van offered by Chevrolet was the recipient of minor changes to the sheet metal and engine. A complete overhaul of the full-size van prompted the name change to the Express in 1997 and helped Chevrolet surpass the sales of Ford for this class of vehicle.

The updated and more ergonomic body style of the 1997 Express, combined with new optimized engine varieties quickly pushed the van beyond its closest competitor, the Ford Econoline Series, in both popularity and functionality. Functional usage is its primary purpose and this van accomplishes the task of being a relatively inexpensive yet multiple use and hard working vehicle.

The next truly significant revisions to the van took place for the 2003 model year. The 2003 Express offered a greater variety of V8 engines and a four-wheel drive option. These mechanical upgrades, in addition to cosmetic enhancements to both the interior and exterior of the Express, helped to make the vehicle a more capable working van that has continued to bypass the competition in almost all respects.

The Express is available in three trim levels-the 1500, 2500 and 3500. The three trim levels and multiple combinations of features and options include the ability to provide transportation for up to 15 passengers.

Configured strictly for cargo and utility, the Chevrolet Express is one of the most customizable vehicles available. It's great for those who need to transport varying amounts of materials, tools and essential on-site work equipment.
