DETROIT - Sales of the all-new Chevy Tracker exceeded sales of the Toyota RAV-4 for June 1999. Chevrolet's newest sport utility vehicle also posted its best June sales (5,535) in history, exceeding June 1998 sales by 131 percent and posting its second best sales month ever. Tracker sales for the calendar year through June (17,439) have increased 56 percent.

"Tracker is building on its success as an agile, yet durable small sport utility vehicle," says Margaret G. Brooks, Tracker brand manager, "and now it's easier than ever to get into a Tracker with Chevy's model year end incentives."

Currently, the incentives on Tracker are $1,500 consumer cash or 6.9 percent APR financing. Starting at $13,995 Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP, including destination charge), Tracker is priced thousands less than the Toyota RAV-4 or Honda CRV. Attractive leases are also available.

Tracker's impressive MSRP is matched by its great value, which includes:

• A full ladder-type frame, making Tracker an authentic sport utility vehicle capable of handling rugged terrain, unlike some of its unibody competitors
• Tracker's new 2.0-liter, 16-valve DOHC four-cylinder engine, which is standard on four-door models and optional on the two-door convertible. * Three-passenger seating in the rear seat of four-door models.
• Adjustable tilt steering (optional), which allows better articulation of the steering wheel than the previous design.
• Spacious storage areas throughout the vehicle, including a sunglass holder in the instrument panel and a center console featuring square cup holders that accommodate everything from cups to juice boxes.

"Many Tracker owners can afford larger SUVs, but buy a small SUV because it's the 'right' size for them," Brooks said.
