One of the best parts of owning a Chevrolet is making it truly yours. Whether you just drove your new Silverado off our lot or you want to add some new functionality to your trusted Equinox, genuine accessories are the perfect way to enhance your vehicle’s style, utility, and protection.
But with so many options out there, where do you start? And why is it so important to stick with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) accessories? Here at Central Chevrolet in West Springfield, we’ve put together a list of the most popular accessories our customers love and explain why choosing genuine Chevy products is always the right call.
The Unbeatable Advantage of OEM Accessories
Before diving into the fun stuff, it’s crucial to understand the OEM difference. Unlike aftermarket products made by third parties, genuine Chevrolet accessories are:
- Engineered for a Perfect Fit: They are designed by the same engineers who designed your vehicle, guaranteeing seamless integration.
- Built to Last: They meet Chevrolet’s rigorous standards for quality and durability, ensuring they stand up to the test of time.
- Warranty-Protected: Many genuine GM accessories are covered by your vehicle’s warranty (or come with their own), giving you confidence and peace of mind.
Now, let’s explore some of the most popular ways to upgrade your ride.
1. Ultimate Interior Protection: All-Weather Floor Liners
Why They’re Popular: From snowy New England winters to muddy spring hikes and summer beach trips, our vehicle’s floors take a beating. All-Weather Floor Liners are a must-have for any Chevy owner. They feature deep, sculpted channels that trap water, road salt, mud, and spills, protecting your carpet from stains and wear.
The OEM Advantage: A genuine Chevrolet All-Weather Floor Liner is custom-molded to the exact contours of your specific model’s floor plan, whether it’s a Traverse, Malibu, or Silverado. This means no slipping, no curling edges, and perfect coverage around pedals and seat mounts—a level of precision aftermarket “universal” mats simply can’t match.
2. Smart Utility: Tonneau Covers & Cargo Management
Why They’re Popular:
- For Trucks (Silverado & Colorado): A Tonneau Cover is arguably the most valuable accessory for a pickup. It secures your gear from theft and protects it from the elements. Plus, a sleek, hard or soft-folding cover can even improve aerodynamics and fuel efficiency.
- For SUVs (Equinox, Traverse, Tahoe): Versatile Roof Racks and Cross Rails open up a world of possibilities, allowing you to easily transport bikes, kayaks, skis, or a rooftop cargo box for extra storage on family vacations.
The OEM Advantage: A genuine GM Tonneau Cover is designed for a weather-tight seal and an exact fit on your truck’s bed. OEM Roof Racks are engineered to mount securely to the designated points on your SUV’s roof, ensuring they can handle the specified weight load without damaging your vehicle’s finish or compromising safety.
3. Style and Function: Assist Steps and Splash Guards
Why They’re Popular:
- Assist Steps: Also known as running boards, these are a game-changer for any truck or larger SUV. They provide a safe, sturdy step for you and your passengers to get in and out of the vehicle easily. They also add a rugged, finished look to your Chevy’s profile.
- Splash Guards (Mud Flaps): These are your vehicle’s best defense against road debris. They protect your paint from the rocks, salt, and grime kicked up by your tires, preventing chips and scratches along your lower body panels.
The OEM Advantage: OEM Assist Steps are designed to mount directly to your vehicle’s frame for maximum strength and stability. Genuine Chevrolet Splash Guards are molded to fit your vehicle’s wheel wells perfectly, offering maximum protection without looking like a bulky add-on.

The Chevrolet Equinox has long been a favorite on the roads of West Springfield and beyond, known for its perfect blend of comfort, efficiency, and versatility. Now, get ready for a whole new chapter. Following its stunning, ground-up redesign for the 2025 model year, the upcoming 2026 Chevrolet Equinox is poised to continue its reign as the go-to compact SUV for New England families. Here at Central Chevrolet, we’re giving you a first look at what makes this new generation of Equinox so special.
A Bolder, More Confident Stance
Gone are the softer curves of previous generations. The new Equinox borrows design cues from its larger, more rugged siblings like the Traverse and Silverado. The result is a bolder, more truck-like exterior that commands attention.
- Prominent Grille: A strong, upright front fascia and distinctive grille give the Equinox a more aggressive and confident look.
- Distinct Trims: For the first time, the Equinox features unique front-end designs for different trims. The street-styled RS trim offers a sportier, more modern feel, while the new ACTIV trim boasts an off-road-inspired look with all-terrain tires and a unique front fascia designed for improved approach angles.
This new design isn’t just for show; it reflects the enhanced capability and adventurous spirit of the modern SUV driver.
A Tech-Forward Cabin Built for Today
Step inside the new Equinox, and you’ll find an interior that’s been completely transformed. The centerpiece is a stunning new 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen, angled toward the driver for easy access. This system is a massive upgrade, offering crisp graphics and intuitive controls.
Even better, it features Google built-in compatibility. This means you get Google Maps, Google Assistant, and access to apps on the Google Play store right from your dashboard, without even needing to plug in your phone. Paired with an 11-inch diagonal driver information screen, the new Equinox cockpit feels like it’s from the future.
Power and Capability for New England Roads
Under the hood, the new-generation Equinox is powered by a capable 1.5L Turbo engine that delivers a responsive and efficient driving experience. While front-wheel drive is standard, we know how important traction is for navigating those tricky Western Mass winters. That’s why the available All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system is a must-have for local drivers, providing extra grip and confidence when the snow starts to fly.
Whether you’re commuting down I-91 or heading up to the Berkshires for a weekend getaway, the Equinox has the power and stability you need.
Safety Remains Standard
Chevrolet continues to prioritize safety, and the new Equinox is no exception. Every model comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, a suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance features, including:
- Automatic Emergency Braking
- Forward Collision Alert
- Front Pedestrian Braking
- Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
- Following Distance Indicator
- IntelliBeam® Auto High Beams
These features act as a second set of eyes on the road, providing peace of mind for you and your passengers.

That sound. You know the one. It’s that high-pitched, metal-on-metal squeal that makes you—and everyone around you—cringe the moment you press the brake pedal. While it’s tempting to turn up the radio and hope it goes away, a noisy brake system is your vehicle’s way of telling you it needs attention.
Here at Central Chevrolet in West Springfield, MA, our service team gets questions about brake noises all the time. Understanding what these sounds mean is the first step toward ensuring your safety on the road.
Common Causes of Squeaky Brakes
Not every brake noise signals a disaster, but every noise is worth investigating. Here are the most common culprits behind that squeal.
- Worn Brake Pads: This is the most frequent cause. Most brake pads are designed with a small metal tab called a “wear indicator.” When your brake pads have worn down to a certain point, this indicator makes contact with the rotor, creating a persistent, high-pitched squeal. This is a built-in warning sign telling you it’s time for new pads.
- Morning Moisture: Especially here in New England, overnight dew, rain, or humidity can cause a thin layer of rust to form on your brake rotors. When you first drive your car in the morning, the first few stops may produce a squeaking or scraping sound as the pads clear this rust layer off. If the noise disappears after a few minutes of driving, it’s generally not a cause for concern.
- Glazed or Hardened Brake Pads: Under heavy braking conditions, like driving in stop-and-go traffic or down steep hills, brake pads can heat up and develop a hard, crystalline surface. This “glazing” can cause them to squeal when they contact the rotors.
- Debris: Sometimes, a small rock or piece of road debris can get lodged between the brake pad and the rotor, causing a very loud and unpleasant squeal or scraping sound.
Squeaking vs. Grinding: Knowing the Critical Difference
While squeaking is a warning, grinding is an alarm.
A squeak is a high-pitched sound that often means your brake pads are nearing the end of their life.
A grinding sound is a much deeper, harsher, and more aggressive noise. This almost always indicates that your brake pads have worn down completely. The noise you’re hearing is the metal backing plate of the brake pad grinding directly against the metal brake rotor.
If you hear a grinding noise, you should stop driving as soon as it is safe to do so. Continuing to drive can severely damage your brake rotors and calipers, turning a routine maintenance job into a much more expensive and complex repair.

The landscape of electric vehicle incentives is shifting, and for those considering making the switch to an EV, the time to act is now. A significant federal incentive that has made driving a new electric vehicle more affordable is set to expire. This means the opportunity to receive substantial savings on a new Chevrolet EV has a fast-approaching deadline.
At Central Chevrolet in West Springfield, MA, we want to ensure our customers have the latest information to make an informed decision. Here’s what you need to know about the changing federal EV incentive and how you can still take advantage of it.
The Clock is Ticking: Incentive Deadline Approaching
The current federal incentive program for new electric vehicles will end on September 30, 2025. Any new eligible electric vehicle purchased and placed into service after this date will not qualify for this federal credit. This creates a clear window of opportunity for prospective EV buyers in the Western Massachusetts area to capitalize on these savings.
How Much Can You Save?
The federal incentive offers a credit of up to $7,500 for the purchase of a new, qualifying electric vehicle. For those considering a pre-owned EV, a separate credit of up to $4,000 is also available, representing 30% of the sale price, whichever is less.
Your Questions About the EV Incentive Answered
Which Chevrolet Models Are Eligible?
Chevrolet has a strong lineup of electric vehicles that are eligible for the full $7,500 federal tax credit if purchased before the September 30, 2025 deadline. These include:
- 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV: This stylish and versatile all-electric SUV is a great option for families and individuals alike.
- 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV: With its impressive range and affordable price point, the Equinox EV is a game-changer in the electric crossover segment.
- 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV: For those in need of a capable and powerful electric truck, select trims of the Silverado EV also qualify for the full credit.
Please note: The 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV are not eligible for this federal incentive.
How Do I Claim the Incentive?
One of the most significant recent improvements to the federal EV incentive is the ability to receive it as an immediate discount at the point of sale. Central Chevrolet is a registered dealership, meaning we can handle the paperwork and apply your eligible credit directly to the purchase price of your new EV. This provides you with instant savings without the need to wait to file your taxes.
Are There Income Limitations?
Yes, there are income limitations to qualify for the federal EV incentive. For a new vehicle, your modified adjusted gross income cannot exceed:
- $300,000 for married couples filing jointly
- $225,000 for heads of households
- $150,000 for all other filers
For used vehicles, the income caps are:
- $150,000 for married couples filing jointly
- $112,500 for heads of households
- $75,000 for all other filers
Are There Vehicle Price Caps?
To qualify for the credit, the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of the new vehicle cannot exceed:
- $80,000 for vans, SUVs, and pickup trucks
- $55,000 for other vehicles
For used vehicles, the sale price must not exceed $25,000.
Why You Shouldn’t Wait
The upcoming changes to the federal EV incentive program create a sense of urgency. With the September 30, 2025, deadline firmly in place, waiting could mean missing out on thousands of dollars in savings. The team at Central Chevrolet is here to help you navigate this process and find the perfect Chevrolet EV to fit your needs and budget.

Find Your Perfect Full-Size SUV: A Guide to Used Tahoe, Escalade, and Suburban Models at Central Chevrolet
West Springfield, MA – The need for a vehicle that can handle it all – from daily school runs and grocery hauls to weekend adventures and family road trips – is a reality for many in Western Massachusetts. For those seeking ample space, robust capability, and premium features without the new-car price tag, the used full-size SUV market offers a compelling solution. Here at Central Chevrolet, we pride ourselves on our extensive inventory of pre-owned trucks and SUVs, with a special focus on the highly sought-after Chevrolet Tahoe, Cadillac Escalade, and Chevrolet Suburban.
Deciding which of these commanding vehicles is the right fit for your lifestyle depends on your specific needs. Let’s break down the key differences and use cases for each to help you make an informed decision.
The Chevrolet Tahoe: The All-Around Family Champion
The Chevrolet Tahoe is a perennial favorite for a reason. It masterfully blends comfortable seating for up to eight or nine passengers (depending on the configuration) with a surprisingly agile driving experience for its size. A used Tahoe is the perfect choice for the family on the go. Its ample cargo space is more than enough for sports equipment, strollers, and luggage. Plus, its powerful V8 engine options provide the towing capacity you need for a small boat or camper.
Who is the used Tahoe for? The growing family that needs a versatile and capable SUV for daily driving, weekend getaways, and everything in between. It’s a practical and stylish choice that delivers on all fronts.
The Chevrolet Suburban: Maximum Space for Maximum Adventures
If you find yourself needing even more room than the Tahoe offers, the Chevrolet Suburban is the answer. As the Tahoe’s larger sibling, the Suburban boasts an extended wheelbase, translating directly to significantly more third-row legroom and a cavernous cargo area. This makes it the ultimate choice for large families, those who frequently travel with a full house, or anyone who needs to transport bulky items. A used Suburban from our inventory means you can have all that space and capability at a fraction of the cost of a new model.
Who is the used Suburban for? Large families, carpool heroes, and anyone whose motto is “the more, the merrier.” If you need maximum passenger and cargo capacity without compromising on comfort and features, the Suburban is your go-to SUV.
The Cadillac Escalade: The Pinnacle of Luxury and Presence
For those who demand the utmost in luxury, style, and performance, the Cadillac Escalade stands in a class of its own. Sharing its platform with the Tahoe and Suburban, the Escalade elevates the full-size SUV experience with premium materials, cutting-edge technology, and a commanding presence on the road. From its handcrafted interior to its powerful engine options, a used Escalade from Central Chevrolet offers an unparalleled level of refinement and sophistication. It’s the perfect vehicle for making a statement while enjoying a first-class travel experience, whether you’re heading to a business meeting or a night on the town.
Who is the used Escalade for? The discerning driver who desires the space and capability of a large SUV but refuses to compromise on luxury and prestige. It’s for those who appreciate the finer things in life and want their vehicle to reflect that.

WEST SPRINGFIELD, MA – The electric vehicle landscape is evolving, and Chevrolet is leading the charge with the stunning all-new Equinox EV and the sharp, powerful Blazer EV. As more drivers in the Greater Springfield area consider making the switch, one of the most practical questions is: what does vehicle maintenance actually look like when you go electric?
If you’re used to a routine of regular oil changes and engine check-ups, get ready for a pleasant surprise. The difference in maintenance between a traditional gasoline car and a modern Chevy EV isn’t just small—it’s a game-changer in terms of convenience and cost. Let’s break down what you can really expect.
A Shorter To-Do List for a Smarter Vehicle
Think for a moment about the essential services your current gas-powered car needs. Oil and filter changes, engine air filter replacements, spark plugs, and drive belts are all critical parts of its maintenance schedule.
With a Chevrolet Equinox EV or Blazer EV, built on the revolutionary Ultium platform, you can cross those items off your list permanently. Because there is no internal combustion engine, the core sources of traditional maintenance are completely eliminated. This means:
- Zero Oil Changes. Ever. The electric drive units in a Chevy EV are sealed and don’t require regular oil service. This is often the biggest and most immediate saving in both time and money for new EV owners.
- No Engine Filters or Spark Plugs. With no gasoline engine, there are no spark plugs to wear out or engine air filters to clog.
- A Radically Simplified Drivetrain. The Ultium platform is designed for durability and simplicity. With far fewer moving parts than a gas engine and transmission, there are significantly fewer components that can wear down and require service.
So, What Maintenance Do the Equinox EV and Blazer EV Require?
While these new EVs are designed to be low-maintenance, they aren’t no-maintenance. The service schedule is simply shorter, less frequent, and more focused on overall vehicle health. Here’s what a typical maintenance plan for a new Chevy EV looks like:
- Tire Rotation (Every 7,500 miles): This is the most frequent service your EV will need. Because EVs are heavier and deliver instant torque to the wheels, regular rotations are key to ensuring your tires wear evenly and you get the maximum life out of them.
- Cabin Air Filter Replacement (Every 22,500 miles): Just like in a gas car, this filter keeps the air in your cabin clean from dust and allergens.
- Brake Service: Here’s where EVs have a major advantage. Thanks to One-Pedal Driving and regenerative braking, the electric motor does most of the work of slowing the vehicle down. This means the traditional brake pads and rotors are used far less often and can last significantly longer than on a gas-powered car. A brake fluid flush is still recommended every 5 years.
- Coolant System Service: The advanced battery system is liquid-cooled to optimize performance and longevity. This robust system is designed for the long haul, requiring a coolant flush only every 150,000 miles.
Head-to-Head: The Maintenance Timeline
Let’s compare the first 45,000 miles in a new gas-powered Chevy Blazer versus the all-electric Blazer EV. The difference is stark.
Chevy Blazer (Gasoline):
- Every 7,500 miles: Oil & Filter Change, Tire Rotation.
- At 22,500 miles: Replace Cabin Air Filter.
- At 45,000 miles: Replace Engine Air Filter, potentially service transmission fluid, inspect evaporative control system.
- Total: At least 6 oil changes and multiple filter replacements.
Chevy Blazer EV (Electric):
- Every 7,500 miles: Tire Rotation.
- At 22,500 miles: Replace Cabin Air Filter.
- Total: That’s it. Just rotations and a single filter change.
The Real-World Savings: Time and Money
Fewer service appointments and fewer replacement parts directly translate to more money in your wallet. Industry studies have repeatedly shown that EV owners can save 40-50% on maintenance costs over the life of their vehicle compared to an equivalent gas car. By eliminating just the oil changes, you could save hundreds of dollars each year.
Peace of Mind for the Long Haul: The EV Warranty
Chevrolet stands firmly behind its new EV technology. The most critical components of your Equinox EV or Blazer EV—the Ultium battery and electric drive units—are backed by a comprehensive warranty, covering them for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. This provides outstanding peace of mind and protection for your investment.
The Future of Driving is Simpler
Choosing a new Chevrolet Equinox EV or Blazer EV is about more than just enjoying a quiet, powerful ride and skipping the gas station. It’s about embracing a modern, more convenient, and more affordable ownership experience. With a dramatically reduced maintenance schedule, you get to spend more time on the road and less time in the service bay.
