Chevy S10: The Performance Packed Pickup

Chevrolet truck has particularly given attention to the power and performance of this pickup to match the standards of other pickups from Mazda truck, Ford truck and Toyota truck. The vehicle has evolved beyond all and still it is affordable. They indeed deserve their boasting of matching their engine performance with Porsche 911 and Dodge Viper and other exotics.

This is a practical vehicle with nearly twice the trunk space compared to convertibles and to hard top models. You can have both the regular and extended cab models of Chevy S10. But thing which matters the most is the engine of the vehicle. After all it has to match the towing power and off road capabilities.

Drivers’ Delight:
Chevy S10 truck comes in different trims like the base S10, LS, S-10 ZR2, Crew cab, Xtreme, and S10 ZR5. All these trims give a variety of choice to pick your truck with options of facilities you want. But when it comes to engine you have only two options to choose from the Vortec engines. Besides that the transmission are available in both manual and automatic modes. You also have the choice of power in regards to 2 wheel-drives and 4 wheel-drives.

All the trims of Chevy S10 engine are available with two Chevy S10 engines makes – one is the Vortec 2200 four cylinder engine and the other one is the Vortec 4300 V6 engine. Both these engines give you dependable power you need to two the truck with load.

The Vortec 4300 V6 engines
comes with 250 pounds per foot of torque at 2800 rpm, and 190 horsepower at 4400rpm. This is the most powerful engine of this model. The driver would be enthralled with its acceleration, drag power and pick up. Whereas the other Vortec 2200 four-cylinder with 120 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 140 pound feet torque at the rate of 3600 rpm is not that bad. This engine too can carry on with the loads easily but cannot manage to give you the excellence which you can get from the V6 engine.

Nevertheless this vehicle has the Vortec Chevy S10 engine
which can offer you a good and reasonable mileage for all the trims. The 2200 four cylinder engine can give more miles per gallon than the V6 engine. Overall the pickup is a good vehicle to choose because the new Chevy is much better than the previous models.
