The Chevrolet Avalanche is a four-door sport utility truck unleashed in 2002 by Chevrolet. It was launched to give the public an advance look at the next generation of front fascia designs for the entire GM line. The name Avalanche is derived from the dangerous and sudden collapse of mountain snowpacks known as the avalanche.

The Chevy Avalanche has been redesigned and re-engineered for 2007 and had become far more superior to its predecessor. While a carryover from 2007 comes the 2008 Avalanche.

The 2008 Avalanche is a 4-door, up to 6-passenger full size pickup, available in 10 trims, ranging from the LS 2WD to the LTZ 4WD. The LS 2WD is equipped with a standard 5.3-liter, V8, 320-horsepower engine that achieves 15-mpg in the city and 21-mpg on the highway. The LTZ 4WD is equipped with a standard 5.3-liter, V8, 310-horsepower, flexible fuel engine that achieves 11-mpg in the city and 15-mpg on the highway. A 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard on both trims.” Despite its improved performance, reviewers find a few complain about its fuel-thirsty engine.

The Avalanche had always been one of a kind. Most find its exterior quite good but not especially a head-turner for its class. It features a removable rear window and exclusive "midgate" that can be lowered into the cabin to provide additional cargo-carrying capabilities. This power-dome hood and redesigned lighting elements also tells us that this is an Avalanche and not a regular pickup.

Car parts like oversized wheel flares, and satin chrome door handles, grille insert, mirror camps and tubular assist steps are special features that add up to the appeal of the Avalanche.

Though it is luxurious and comfortable but it cabin isn’t good enough to be a part of the top-three in terms of SUV interior quality. It can seat up to six passengers. It is constructed from high-quality materials, with much more comfortable seats, and an instrument panel that is positioned perfectly for easy visibility. It is well-equipped with many standard features such as power windows, power door locks, keyless entry, a single CD/MP3 player, a power driver's seat and cruise control.

Standard Avalanche safety equipment includes antilock disc brakes, stability control, GM's OnStar emergency communications system and a full-length side-curtain airbag system with a rollover sensor. According to usnews.rankingsandreviews.com, “the 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche does very well in federal government crash tests. It earned five stars for driver and front passenger protection in frontal impacts, and five stars for the front and rears seat in side impacts.”
