2005 will mark the final year of service for Chevrolet's long-serving minivan. With its truck-based design, impressive cargo room and thorough list of safety features, it isn't hard to see why the Chevy Astro lasted as long as it did. But now the time has come to move on.

As such, this year doesn't see any real changes to the 2005 Chevy Astro. It continues to offer durable, dependable service for families that need a no-hassle minivan for their day-to-day travels as well as longer, cross-country adventures.

Available Models
The 2005 Chevrolet Astro is offered in three models: base, LS and LT.

Interior Features
The reliable Chevy Astro seats eight passengers on two front bucket seats and two 3-person rear benches. Second-row bucket seats are optional. With the rear seats removed, the 2005 Astro is able to provide up to 170 cubic feet of cargo space.

The three-model 2005 Chevy Astro lineup gives customers plenty of options to choose from. The LS is offered at a nice price and features such comfort items as front and rear air conditioning, a rear heater, an AM/FM/CD/cassette player, an overhead console, a compass and more.

In addition to all that, there are a variety of options available as well.

Exterior Features
The 2005 Chevy Astro comes in one body length with a passenger-side sliding door. However, side-by-side rear cargo doors or extra-cost Dutch doors with separate-opening upper glass are also offered.

Performance
The Chevy Astro is available with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The engine under the hood for 2005 is a 4.3-liter V6. It can generate 190 horsepower at 4400 rpm and 250 lb-ft of torque at 2800 rpm.

The Astro's V6 engine uses multi-port fuel injection for long-lasting performance. It is mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.

Safety and Security
Standard Chevy Astro safety and security features include a child security latch on the sliding door, battery-rundown protection and the PASSLock theft-deterrent system. A lockout provision also prevents the driver's door from locking if the key is inadvertently left in the ignition. A world-class brake system further adds to the 2005 Chevy Astro's solid reputation as a dependable Chevy Truck.

The standard world-class power 4-wheel disc, 4-wheel ABS brake system, with a highly responsive Hydroboost hydraulic assist power brake booster and GM's Dynamic Rear Proportioning, provides quicker, controlled stops and additional safety alerts. A reserve power assist system provides sufficient power assist to stop the van if the engine stalls or is turned off.
