First Impressions of the Chevrolet Tracker for 2000
People who buy a Chevrolet Tracker are often happy with purchase. For over a decade, the Tracker has been one of the mainstays of the Chevrolet brand. This has always been a meaningful truck, and the 2000 model is no different. A sport utility for everyone in the household is what the Chevrolet Tracker delivers.
Chevrolet Tracker Engine Specs
The restyled Tracker Base is equipped with a Suzuki 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine that utilizes a total of 16 valves. The engine is paired with a Aisin Warner 4-speed transmission. This configuration has proven to be a successful design for Chevrolet.
Steering control is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The Tracker has power-assisted brakes, with Non-ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are drum. The truck uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.
Vehicle Statistics
The Tracker is 151.60 inches long, 67.30 inches wide, and 66.50 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 86.60 inches. It is able to seat 4 comfortably.
The original manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) was $13,975 when new, with a dealer invoice cost of $13,164. This price was in line with the industry average price for a 2-door Sport Utility.
Fuel Efficiency
The fuel system for the 2000 Tracker is a MPI design, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel flow is regulated by a electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The storage capacity of the fuel tank is 14.80 gallons.
The 2000 Tracker gets 25 - 28 miles/gallon on the highway and only 23 - 25 in the city. This is exceptional for a sport utility truck.
We Think…
The 1999 model began the promise of the Chevrolet Tracker. The 2000 expanded on this success and has proven to be a strong seller in most markets. Even with strong competition from other manufacturers Chevrolet hopes that the Tracker Base will continue to be a profitable vehicle.
I saw the recent news about Chevrolets and their reliability. I personally would check out web sites like edmunds.com and others before I made a choice of a truck like the Tracker.
