Year to Year Changes
2004 Chevrolet SSR:
After a short initial run of 2003 models in the fall of 2002, SSR entered the 2004 season unchanged, except for additional color choices. Base price initially was $41,370, and an SSR could tow as much as 2500 pounds.
2005 Chevrolet SSR:
A major power boost and available manual gearbox highlighted the 2005 season. Chevrolet exchanged the SSR's original 300-horsepower engine for a new 6.0-liter V8 that generated 390 horsepower and 405 pounds-feet of torque, working with either a six-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. New options included a cockpit wind blocker and an auxiliary gauge package. The Bose CD stereo could now play MP3 files.
2006 Chevrolet SSR:
Engine outputs rose slightly this year, to 395 horsepower with an automatic transmission and 400 with the optional manual gearbox. In March 2006, after manufacturing fewer than 25,000, Chevrolet produced the last SSR.
