Overview

In the world of cargo vans, the 2015 Chevrolet City Express Cargo Van is a well-known name. Belonging to the compact van segment, the Chevrolet City Express competes with the Nissan NV200, the Ford Transit Connect Cargo Van, and the Ram Promaster City Cargo Van. The base trim starts at around an MSRP of $21,955. With 2 trims on offer, prices reach around $23,515. Traditionally offered bareboned, cargo vans can be equipped to fill the need of the buyer. The City Express too can be equipped with packages such as the Technology Package and the Appearance Package, improving either form or function. Delivering a combined MPG of 25, the 2.0L Inline-4 on offer here feels potent enough. It is mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and makes 131 horsepower and 139 lb-ft of torque.

Buying Advice

There is no beating around the bush when it comes to City Express’ trim range. Hence, we think the upper LT is a better choice. In addition to all the base LS trim’s content, it also adds rear parking sensors, keyless entry, power door locks, and more. Meanwhile, you can expand the features list with the help of the Technology Package.
