GM Announces Price of CNG Option for Chevy Express and GMC Savana Vans
By Scott Doggett August 31, 2010
General Motors today announced that the optional compressed-natural-gas components for the Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana full-size vans will carry a suggested retail price of $15,910 when they become available in the U.S. this fall.
Pricing for the all-inclusive CNG option includes a dedicated CNG system ($14,590), a natural gas-capable Vortec 6.0-liter V8 engine ($1,295), and heavy-duty trailering equipment ($265).
A $240 credit for deleting the spare tire brings the package price to $15,910. So the total cost of either a 2011 Chevrolet Express or 2011 GMC Savana Cargo model, which starts at $25,980, would be $41,890 or more with the CNG option.
The vans come equipped with hardened exhaust valves, and intake and exhaust valve seats for improved wear resistance and durability with gaseous fuel systems.
The vans will meet all Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board emission certification requirements, and will be fully compliant with applicable motor vehicle safety standards, GM said in a statement today.
Each CNG Chevrolet Express or GMC Savana van also will be covered by GM's three-year, 36,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty and five-year, 100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty.
