Two Chevrolets Named to the Good Housekeeping Institute Best New Cars of 2018 List

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.,–– The consumer-testing experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute (GHI) recently partnered with Car and Driver to review and report on the best new cars of 2018. GHI is the leading consumer product-evaluation laboratory in the country, which tests products for the Good Housekeeping magazine. The list of vehicles names the top choice for consumers in each model level while considering safety, handling, design, comfort, design, and value.  The team of experts from both organizations test-drove each of the new 2018 vehicles for over 3,000 miles of test track and normal roads. Two Chevrolet models were named to their Best New Cars of 2018 list. Find out which Chevys made the grade!

Best Large SUV: 2018 Chevrolet Suburban

GHI noted that the new 2018 Suburban has ample seating and cargo space to accommodate all of the needs of a family vehicle, and has all the available technology features to make even the longest road trips more enjoyable. Their experts were also quite impressed with the strength (horsepower and towing) of the Suburban and the peace of mind its brawny design and advanced safety features provide.

Best Electric Car: 2018 Chevrolet Bolt EV

GHI was amazed by the incredible efficiency of the 2018 Chevy Bolt EV, a fully-electric powered sedan.

Plus, the Bolt can be charged using a regular outlet at home, but its best to have the charging station installed.

Wirelessly Charge Your Cell Phone in the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban

MT. PLEASANT, Mich. – That moment when your phone alerts you it has less than 10% battery left, you're far from home, and you don't have a phone charger on you. It's like the world is ending. Dramatic? Maybe. But we've been there and we know the feeling! What if we told you, you never have to worry about that happening ever again? Well, you don't because you can wirelessly charge your phone in the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban!

No more cords needed to charge your cell phone from the road! The 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban can wirelessly charge your phone simply by placing your smartphone on the center armrest! The armrest charging station on the full size SUV's fits nearly any size smartphone, all you have to do is place it in the right direction to ensure charging is active. The technology makes use of smartphone charging coils, but since the coils differ from phone to phone you just need to make sure the device is correctly placed on the charging pad.

However, it is important to note that since the wireless smartphone charging technology is new in the Chevrolet SUV's, it is limited to select smartphones that are compatible. But, even if your smartphone isn't compatible with the technology, there are adapter backplates you can purchase to use with your smartphone.
