Truck of the Year for 1995: The Chevrolet S10 LS
The 1995 S10 is an important vehicle to Chevrolet for the extended cab pickup market segment. The LS is a member of a series of four trim levels for the S10 which include ZR2, SS, LS, and Base. The two-door truck with its four-wheel drive is positioned to aggressively fill this niche for Chevrolet. There is strong competition from vehicles from Honda.
1995 Chevrolet S10 LS Specs
The restyled S10 LS is equipped with a 4.3-liter six-cylinder engine that utilizes 12 valves. The Vortec engine is mated to a General Motors four-speed transmission. This has resulted in an increase in horsepower and torque over the 1994 version.
The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are drum. Steering is handled through a power-steering gear-style configuration. The S10 uses power-assisted brakes, with 2-Wheel ABS support. Load balancing is provided by coil front springs and leaf in the rear.
