The transmission is a four-speed automatic, mated to an electronic transfer case in four-wheel-drive models. The Avalanche 2500 has been discontinued and is no longer available.

The Chevy Avalanche is available in three main trim levels: Avalanche LS, Avalanche LT and Avalanche LTZ. LS models are reasonably well equipped. LT provides additional features in three available tiers (LT1, LT2 and LT3). The LTZ is the top-of-the-line model and comes standard with almost all of the other trim's options.

The LS 2WD is the entry-level Avalanche, along with the LS 4WD. Seats are cloth covered benches, front and rear; the front splits 40/20/40 with a six-way power driver's seat and manual recline on both driver and passenger seat, the rear 60/40. Standard features include dual-zone air conditioning, the usual array of powered utilities including the tailgate lock, multi-media stereo radio, leather-wrapped tilt steering wheel, front and rear seat carpeted floor mats, two auxiliary power outlets, ready-to-tow trailer setup and P265/70R17 all-season tires on aluminum wheels. Notable options include a stereo upgrade adding an in-dash, six-CD changer; XM satellite radio with pre-paid, three-month trial subscription; power adjustable pedals with rear park assist; luggage rack and cross rails; auto-lock rear differential; and white-letter highlighted tires. Also, but only on the LS, is a delete-option soft cargo cover in place of the standard three-piece, hard cover.

The LT 2WD and 4WD feature an upgraded interior with cloth bucket seats, six-way power adjustments for the driver's seat, manual recline on both seats, a center console, and rear-seat audio controls with dual headphone jacks. Halogen fog lamps are standard. A front bench seat is a no-cost option.

Rain-sensing windshield wipers and a heated wiper washer fluid system can be ordered with the 3LT package.

The LTZ 2WD and 4WD come standard with most of the equipment that's optional on the other two models. Also standard is a premium suspension package with variable shock damping and air-assisted rear load leveling. Power retractable running boards are optional. The luggage rack cross rails are optional, along with the rear-view camera system, the sunroof, the rear-seat entertainment system and the navigation system.
