2005 Chevrolet Astro Preview summaryImage

Not much changed for the Chevy Astro passenger van in its last year of production. The Astro passenger van comes in two trims: 2WD and AWD. Both trims have a 4.3 L, 190 hp V6 powertrain with 4 speed automatic transmission.

Gas mileage averages out to 15 mpg in the city and 19 on the highway. Both trims have 3 doors, seat 8, and offer standard air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, and ABS brakes. Options include cd player and power/leather seats. Passenger volume comes out to 129.1 cubic feet and cargo volume comes out to 41.3 cubic feet. Max towing capacity ranges from 5200-5400 lbs.

Overall, the critics appreciate the SUV-like towing capacity and spacious interior that the Astro offers. However, not much else stands out for the Astro. With an outdated design and less-than-inspiring powertrain, the Chevy Astro doesn't tow or hold enough to justify choosing it over a good SUV or van.

I have owned 6 Astro's the last being a 2005. I have used thm as my work vehicle with all of them going wll over 200,000 mile and never had a engine or transmission problem. Did experience rear end problems on 2000. On 1995 I sold it and was told it had over 400,000 miles and still going. Here is and update from my original review the 2005 has experienced two major repairs. Transmission was rebuilt at 219,000 and a full differential replacement at 227,000. I now have 273,800+ and still going.Sep 02, 2007
