The Chevrolet Avalanche is a full-size sports-utility truck that was introduced by the General Motors Chevrolet brand in 2001. The 2002 Chevy Avalanche is the vehicle's debut model-year entry, divided into two main trims--the 1500 and 2500--that have two/rear-wheel drivetrain and four-wheel drivetrain versions. Largely built on the platform of its SUV sibling, the Chevy Suburban, the 2002 Chevy Avalanche is an example of the crossover automobile, combining certain features from two different vehicles.

Engine, Transmission and Fuel Economy

    The 1500 trims of the 2002 Chevy Avalanche have 5.3-liter, 285 horsepower V8 engines with 325 feet-pounds of torque, while the 2500 trims have 8.1-liter, 340 horsepower V8 engines with 455 feet-pounds of torque. The transmission is a four-speed automatic with overdrive. The 1500 trims have a gas tank capacity of 31 gallons; that of the 2500 is 37 1/2 gallons. Gas mileage is rated as 13 to 14 miles per gallon for city driving and 17 to 18 mpg for highway driving.
