2015 Chevrolet Silverado HD High Country

Chevrolet is adding a High Country variant to its 2015 Silverado HD pick-up range. Promising a bit more luxury, it’ll be offered on 2500 and 3500 models equipped with a crew cab.

The standard specification includes a Bose audio system, an 8” touchscreen, front and rear parking sensors, saddle brown leather upholstery and front seats that have both heating and cooling. Also available is an optional High Country Premium Package comprising power-adjustable pedals, driver alert and a heated steering wheel.

Among the distinguishing exterior features are a unique chrome grille, body-colour bumpers, chrome side steps and several special badges. The wheels fitted depend on the version chosen: the 2500 comes with 20” chrome-finished rims, the single rear-wheel 3500 gets 18” items and the double rear-wheel 3500 has 17” polished forged alloys.

As expected the engine selection is the same as for the rest of the Silverado HD line-up, namely a 6.0 litre Vortec petrol V8 with or without CNG dual-fuel capability, plus a 6.6 litre Duramax turbo diesel unit. Buyers can pick either rear- or four-wheel drive.

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
