Chevrolet will end Avalanche production after the 2013 model year. The Avalanche design offers more utility than a traditional pickup with a midgate that extends the bed into the cab
The automaker is commemorating the Avalanche with the 2013 Black Diamond model. Black Diamond Avalanches will feature body-colored bed surrounds, a distinctive badge on the sail panel, additional features on LS and LT models, and lower prices across the lineup.
“More than 580,000 Avalanches have been sold since its introduction in 2001, and Avalanche has won major awards and recognitions throughout its run,” said Mark Clawson, Avalanche marketing manager. “So it is only fitting that Avalanche retires on a high note.”
