2000 chevrolet cavalier review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. A car with excellent value got better. introductionchevrolet cavalier is gm's volume leader for passenger cars. A rounded body style distinguishes it from the ford escort, dodge neon and honda civic and that's been enhanced for 2000 with revised styling. though not a leader in sophistication, cavalier rides nicely on most road surfaces and it comes standard with anti-lock brakes, which have been upgraded this year for improved performance. A new getrag manual transmission and shifter is designed to improve shift feel and make it easier to get into reverse, while a new fuel pump and meter system helps reduce engine noise from the previously bothersome level. this is a practical car with cargo capacity. A more powerful 2. 4-liter twin-cam engine comes on the z24 models and is an option on the ls sedan. The z-24 convertible comes with a choice of black or neutral-colored tops; there's also a special arctic white model with a white top and a white vinyl interior with deluxe bucket seats. walkaroundchevrolet's cavalier is an attractive car with flowing lines that are enhanced this year with new body-colored front fascias. Rounded fenders, concave hood lines and new crystal headlight lenses induce a low-to-the road look. Relatively thin a-pillars and c-pillars enhance driver visibility and enhance the flowing appearance, which seems to work best in the new dark green and silver colors. Dual side mirrors are tucked nicely into the a-pillar. The flowing lines come to an abrupt end in back, which stymies the overall design, though the rakish new rear spoiler that comes on the z24 improves this. There's a new taillight configuration with insets, but it doesn't add much excitement. Ironically, the styling revisions emphasize the cavalier's bobbed tail and relatively short wheelbase. Bigger tires and lower side moldings add a little muscle to the appearance of the ls sedan and the z24 models. Z24s come with five-spoke aluminum wheels, while the coupe, sedan and ls sedan get full wheel covers. interiora new dash treatment for 2000 flows more smoothly into the passenger side and make the interior more pleasing to the eye than last year's model. A new set of gauges is an improvement for the driver. Cloth insets in the doors helps prevent plastic overload and a two-spoke steering wheel lends a lighter look to the dash. the back seat remains cramped for the legs for even those of average height. Weighing less than 2,700 pounds, the cavalier features a good power-to-weight ratio. This car has zip, with 155 foot-pounds of torque to launch it from intersections. This transmission works well around town, keeping the engine in its best operating range at lower speeds. Because the three gears are farther apart, the engine strains under hard acceleration. Therefore, the base coupe and sedan are far better off with the standard five-speed manual gearbox. the cavalier handles reasonably well. Its stiff chassis enables the suspension to do its job. There's a slight twitch when hitting a bump in the middle of a quick corner. Completely pliant cornering might require a softer suspension and more finesse in the corners. The car handles bumps with steady attitude and a modicum of comfort. Power steering is light and responsive and the cavalier quickly turns in for corners. This car is light on its feet and can accommodate either comfortable or more sporty driving styles. the new solenoid-based anti-lock braking system is an improvement, improving balance between the front and rear brakes under heavy braking. This revised abs can be a real ally in an emergency maneuver because it allows the driver to steer the car in a panic braking situation. Just remember to keep hard pedal pressure on the brakes and don't forget to steer. This system really adds value to the cavalier. summarya car with excellent value got better.
