Multiple Chevy Models Named to "Best of 2018" Lists

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.,–– Chevy vehicles have been showing up on a number of "Best of 2018" lists so far this year, including lists from major publications such as Consumer Reports, Car and Driver, and U.S. News & World Report. These lists thoroughly vet and assess the new 2018 models from across the market, and rank only the best of the best. Chevrolet has always prided itself on engineering excellence and for providing amazing vehicles for the American driver. Read on to find out which Chevy vehicles were named to "Best of 2018" lists!


Consumer Reports - 10 Top Picks of 2018: Best Cars of the Year

Consumer Reports went to great lengths to create their 10 Top Picks of 2018: Best Cars of the Year list and two Chevrolets were named among the best of the best. To do so, they assessed each new vehicle from all major motor brands in terms of reliability, owner satisfaction, and safety, while also putting the vehicle through an exhaustive road test. Vehicles that ranked spectacularly well in all four areas made the cut, and were named to their Best Cars of the Year list, including;

Best Large Car: 2018 Chevrolet Impala

"The Impala continues to be a gem among large cars, providing a driving experience that’s more akin to a luxury car. The controls are refreshingly intuitive and easy to use, including the feature-rich infotainment system. Its smooth ride is a true standout, soaking up bumps like a sponge. Those in the market would be wise to consider an Impala." - Consumer Reports

Multiple Chevy Models Named to "Best of 2018" Lists

Best Compact Green Car: 2018 Chevrolet Bolt

"The Bolt proves that electric cars need not apologize for a lack of driving performance. This distinctive-looking hatchback delivers brisk acceleration and tight handling, plus a 250-mile electric range at a mainstream price." - Consumer Reports

Car and Driver - 2018 10Best Cars

A notable and well-respected automotive news and review organization, Car and Driver released their 2018 10Best Cars list recently, and two Chevy models made the cut. After two weeks of extensive hands-on evaluation of new 2018 model vehicles, Car and Driver experts drove and tested the sedans, trucks, and SUVs out on the track, checked out what was under the hood and inside the cabin, while also assessing the full functionality of their infotainment systems. The vehicles considered for this prestigious list must have a sale price under $80,000 and be either a returning winner, or an all-new or significantly revised model.


2018 Chevrolet Camaro V-6 / SS / ZL1 Coupes

"Imagine meeting Vin Diesel and discovering that he has a law degree, quotes Robert Frost, and speaks with an English accent worthy of royalty. Maybe he is all that; we don’t know—we’ve never met him. That’s the Camaro’s story as well: You can’t know it until you’re one on one with it, preferably on a challenging two-lane road. It is there that the Camaro will demolish your preconceptions, one corner at a time." - Car and Driver

Multiple Chevy Models Named to "Best of 2018" Lists


2018 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport

"The Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport needs little introduction as a mega-performance bargain worthy of our 10Best Cars list, and 2018 marks the second year in a row that the Grand Sport targa and convertible have made the cut. From its Lightning Lap exploits to our current long-term test car, it is a track-day thriller and an unflinching ally on winding back roads. Factor in impressive civility at a price that massively undercuts any exotic of similar dynamic capability, and the Grand Sport earns its place again for being one of the best sports-car buys available." - Car and Driver

Multiple Chevy Models Named to "Best of 2018" Lists

U.S. News & World Report - The Best New Cars Arriving in 2018

U.S. News & World Report is a world renowned reporting authority, and their automotive branch recently released a list of The Best New Cars Arriving in 2018, which includes two Chevy models. Criteria for inclusion on the list requires the 2018 models to be all-new or significantly redesigned.

2018 Chevrolet Equinox

"Chevrolet’s redesigned Equinox is a safe bet if you are looking for a compact crossover that includes plenty of features." - U.S. News & World Report


Multiple Chevy Models Named to "Best of 2018" Lists

2018 Chevrolet Traverse

"With class-leading cargo space, cavernous seating for up to eight, and lots of in-cabin storage, the Chevy Traverse is a great SUV. This large family hauler feels composed when driving, with easy steering and braking. The Traverse rides comfortably, even on rough pavement or while handling curves with enthusiasm. Technology features are intuitive, as well." -U.S. News & World Report

Multiple Chevy Models Named to "Best of 2018" Lists
