US News Praises 2020 Chevy Malibu and Impala Interiors

2020 Chevrolet Malibu

Making the list in the midsize sedan category, the 2020 Chevy Malibu earned kudos from the editors for its impressive fuel efficiency, affordability, and well-equipped interior.


“The Malibu features spacious front seats, decent rear-seat space, and an average-sized trunk with a wide opening. It provides a smooth ride and its turbo-four base engine delivers sufficient acceleration. If you want plenty of power, a more potent turbo-four is available,” according to U.S. News & World Report writer Steven Loveday.

The 2020 Chevrolet Impala earns the top spot in the large sedan category. Plus, it won the magazine’s award for 2020 Best Large Car for the Money. Although the cabin lacks in sophisticated design, Loveday notes its ample and comfortable space for passengers and trunk space.
“The Impala’s trunk is the roomiest among large cars. Rounding out its strengths are its agreeable ride, capable V6 engine, respectable crash test results, and above-average predicted reliability rating,” Loveday reports.


The 2020 Impala delivers an EPA-estimated fuel efficiency rating of 18 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. The standard 3.6-liter V6 engine generates 305 horsepower for a peppy performance that makes commuting more fun. Staying in touch with clients and family and connected to your favorite apps is easily facilitated through the user-friendly Chevrolet Infotainment System.

Both the Malibu and Impala can be found by visiting Hometown Chevrolet Buick GMC at 2009 Barnes Street in Reidsville, North Carolina or by calling 336.634.0050

I am very pleased with my overall experience here at Hometown Chevrolet. They found the exact car I was looking for since the one I came to get was already sold. The entire sales team has shown great customer service and a very personable experience. I would recommend anyone looking for a vehicle to go see them. Sales associate Sam Bailey was a pleasure to work with!!

2020 GMC Sierra 1500


GMC has hit a Grand Slam home run with the new 2020 GMC Sierra 1500. Thanks to a choice of two new engines and more tech.  These new power-plants are the highlights of this handsome and rugged looking pickup from GMC.

Between the new 3.0-liter inline-six Duramax diesel and the turbo 2.7-liter gas four, you have to question why you need a V8 in this type of truck.  Maybe it is just a question of what small engine suits your needs.  You will find the answers to this “head scratching” thought with a visit with the friendly folks at Hometown Chevrolet Buick GMC located at 2009 Barnes Street in Reidsville, North Carolina or by calling the dealership at 336.634.0050 and take your expectations for a drive in the new GMC Sierra 1500.  Easy as that.  
 You will discover that for your light duty stuff, the turbo four that delivers 310 horses and 348 lb-ft of “get up and go” torque is plenty.  Then you have the new Duramax diesel that punches out 277 horses and an awesome 460 lb-ft of asphalt/dirt grabbing torque is maybe what you desire.  All in all, this torquey six diesel is the star of the show and the other great news is it doesn't sound like a “clacking” diesel. 

Another plus with this engine that's under its muscular hood, the Sierra can tow over 9,000 lbs or haul over 1,800 pounds of payload performing like a champ.  Have diesel, will tow.  The Duramax is mated with a smooth shifting 10-speed transmission that steps down quickly when a downshift is needed.  The integrated exhaust brake makes stopping easier saving brake force. Like its heavy-duty cousin, the GMC Sierra 1500 has six cameras that give the driver no fewer than 15 views around the truck and the trailer.  The best piece of tech is GM's super-cool transparent trailer system, which stitches together the view from the rear of your trailer and what is behind you.  How cool is that? 


Also, your Sierra 1500 features trailering apps both in the cab and on your phone to check tire pressures and such.  Also available is the excellent tough carbon-fiber bed that can withstand lots of punishment and it is not a bed-liner.  Other useful features for this year are adaptive cruise control, new multi-color heads up display with an 8-inch infotainment screen, MultiPro tailgate, a slew of standard safety features and more. An aggressive head turning macho model called the Elevation with its black grille, much less chrome and 20-inch wheels is also new.  The 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 just covers all the bases from its efficient diesel to its unique tailgate option with a myriad of models to choose from. 

No better time than now to check one out.
