Chevy Vs Ford Mount Pocono PA
Chevy Vs Ford: Battle Of The Brands
With a fierce rivalry dating back generations, Chevy vs. Ford is always an intriguing contest. You may be considering models from both American automakers, so we at Ray Price Chevrolet thought a "battle of the brands" comparison may help you determine which manufacturer is right for you.
As you look through the model lineups, you'll see Chevrolet and Ford typically work step for step, with each creating a vehicle to compete with the other brand's model in any given segment.
As you'll see, though, one brand gives you more of what you want as you traverse Mount Pocono, Tobyhanna, Scranton, Stroudsburg, and East Stroudsburg.
Chevy vs Ford: Reliability
When considering the reliability of Chevrolet models and their Ford counterparts, the best place to turn is J.D. Power Awards. Essentially, J.D. Power awards are determined from surveys presented to more than 80,000 owners of verified vehicles at least three years old.
The 2020 results for highest dependability ratings see Chevrolet place three models on the award podium, while Ford only has two winners.
The first Chevy to show up is the Chevrolet Equinox, earning the highest dependability grade for compact SUVs. From there, the Chevrolet Tahoe takes home the dependability crown for large SUVs, and the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD earns the trophy for large, heavy-duty pickup trucks.
The Ford winners, on the other hand, are limited to the Ford Mustang in the midsize sport car segment and the Ford F-150 in the large, light-duty pickup truck segment.
Ford vs Chevy: Safety
As we turn from reliability to safety, there's another handy judge for picking out the most protective cars on the road-the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety or IIHS. The IIHS runs all their own tests and hands out awards to vehicles that excel in numerous safety categories.
The highest grade handed out is Top Safety Pick+, with Top Safety Pick running a close second. How do Ford and Chevrolet match up in the 2019 awards?
Well, in the small SUV category, both the Chevrolet Equinox and the Ford Escape take home Top Safety Pick awards. However, if you're looking for a small car, Ford doesn't provide any models with an IIHS award, while the Chevrolet Bolt received the 2019 Top Safety Pick!
Interior Technology
If, for example, you’re trying to decipher between the Chevrolet Trax and the Ford EcoSport, one of the noticeable differences is that the Chevy SUV offers more standard interior technology than Ford.
Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™—which are a pair of integration systems linking your smartphone to the vehicle—can be obtained with the base Trax LS trim, yet Ford requires you to step up to trims higher in the model lineup.
Battle of the Brands: Chevy Outshines Ford
If you place traits such as interior technology, safety, and reliability at the top of your new-car list, Chevy shows more promise within its lineup than Ford.
At Ray Price Chevrolet, we'll be happy to get you behind the wheel of your favorite Chevy model around Mount Pocono, Tobyhanna, Scranton, Stroudsburg, and East Stroudsburg.
