2024 Chevrolet Express Passenger Review

Reviewed by Matt DiGiulio

Overview

The Chevrolet Express Passenger Van is a familiar sight on the road, renowned for its dependability and spacious interior. It comfortably seats up to 15 passengers, making it a favorite for hotels, shuttle services, and the tourism industry. While its design lacks the modern flair of newer rivals, the Express prioritizes function over form. Its large interior is simple yet durable, built to withstand years of heavy use. Chevrolet offers a variety of engine options, including a fuel-efficient turbodiesel, ensuring there's a powertrain to suit most needs. However, the Express is starting to show its age. It lacks many driver-assistance features and infotainment options that have become commonplace. Additionally, its large size can be cumbersome in tight spaces. Nevertheless, when maximum passenger capacity and cargo room are paramount, the Express remains a compelling choice. Competitors include the Ford Transit Passenger Wagon, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Passenger Van, and Ram ProMaster Window Van.

Positives

Unmatched Passenger Capacity. Robust build quality. Impressive towing capacity.

Considerations

Due for an Update. Falls short in fuel efficiency. No All-Wheel-Drive Option.

Verdict

The Chevrolet Express Passenger Van prioritizes space and durability over cutting-edge tech. Despite its age, it remains a popular choice for businesses needing to transport large groups, offering comfortable seating for up to 15 passengers and a powerful engine lineup.

What's New for 2024

The Express Passenger Van is mostly unchanged for 2024.

Trims and Pricing

The Express comes in regular and long wheelbase configurations, paired with either a 2500 or 3500 heavy-duty platform to handle increased weight.

LS

Starting at $46,795 (including destination fee), the base LS offers seating for 12, vinyl upholstery, air conditioning, power windows, Wi-Fi access, a backup camera, and standard four-wheel disc brakes.

LT

Priced at $48,895, the LT adds safety features like lane-departure warning and forward-collision warning, along with cloth seats, floor mats, remote keyless entry, and cruise control.

Options for the Express include an extended wheelbase for extra cargo space or additional seating, a sliding passenger-side door for easier entry and exit, a heavy-duty battery, a locking rear differential for improved traction, side assist steps, power side mirrors, Bluetooth connectivity, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a USB port, rear parking sensors, and blind-spot monitoring.

Engine and Performance

The Express Passenger comes standard with a 4.3-liter V6 engine generating 276 horsepower and 298 lb-ft of torque with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is the only drivetrain available. Also available is a 2.6-liter Duramax turbo-diesel engine offering 181 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque for better fuel economy and towing capability. The recently added 6.6-liter V8 engine shared with the Silverado truck, produces 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

Fuel Economy

The EPA does not provide official fuel economy ratings for the Chevrolet Express Passenger Van.

Interior

The Express prioritizes passenger space, comfortably seating 12 or 15 depending on configuration. The cabin is utilitarian, featuring vinyl or cloth seats and minimal tech features. The driver's layout is user-friendly, and there's ample legroom in every row. Opting for the extended wheelbase expands cargo space from 218.5 cubic feet to 255.5 cubic feet.

Infotainment and Connectivity

The Express lacks a modern infotainment system, with passengers missing out on navigation and smartphone integration features like Apple CarPlay. It comes with a basic AM/FM radio with an auxiliary audio input, satellite radio, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. The two-speaker audio system might be lacking for some.

Safety

Neither NHTSA nor IIHS evaluate full-size vans. The base LS includes a backup camera, while the LT adds forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane-departure warning. Optional features include blind-spot monitoring, but the Chevy lacks more advanced safety technologies like adaptive cruise control, a surround-view camera, and lane-keeping assist, putting it behind some competitors.

Chevrolet Express Passenger vs. the Competition

The Chevrolet Express Passenger Van and its twin, the GMC Savana Passenger, are the seasoned veterans of the full-size passenger van segment. While their design hasn't undergone major changes in recent years, their established reputation for reliability and spaciousness keeps them relevant. However, newer competitors have emerged, offering features that may sway some buyers. The Ford Transit Passenger Wagon offers a more modern driving experience with a smoother ride, car-like handling, and a wider array of driver-assistance features, making it a compelling choice for those who prioritize comfort and technology. For those seeking the ultimate in passenger van luxury, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Passenger Van delivers. However, this premium experience comes at a significantly steeper price point compared to the Express.

Owner Review

They have moved all the duct work and electrical stuff from the sides to overhead, and I don't like it. I causes me not to be able to load my dog crates the way I want.

I use this van to go to dog shows, so my needs are somewhat different than most people. I would have bought a cargo van if the air conditioning and heat had gone all the way to the back instead of a passenger van. The rails that hold the seating are a pain in my butt. I also wish that they had not moved all the electronics and duct work to the ceiling and left it in the side wall. I cannot stack my crates in this vehicle. I did not realize they had changed the head clearance, or I would have purchased the extended instead. Other than that I love my new Express.

The Starting Market Average is a proprietary mathematical calculation based on actual recent transactions. It provides a statistically accurate understanding of what other buyers are paying for the least expensive configuration of this vehicle. Adjustments to the calculation beyond make, model, and trim are normalized based on detailed, anonymized transaction information. This accounts for the fact that most or all recently-sold vehicles included different option combinations. The data underlying the Starting Market Average calculation are filtered for extreme outliers and subjected to a weighted averaging process that considers factors such as the recency of transactions and the timing of data lags. In certain instances, the calculated result is adjusted to take account of abrupt changes in the market that may not yet be fully reflected by recent transaction prices. In all cases where the Starting Market Average is shown there is sufficient sample size and transaction detail to be statistically reliable.
