A thorough updating for 2006 included two new V6 engines, displacing 3.5 and 3.9 liters, and the return of the SS model with a 303-horsepower 5.3-liter V8. All three powerplants used four-speed-automatic transmissions. The SS lasted only until the end of the 2009 model year. A 3.6-liter V6 became the sole powerplant for 2012, a year before the big Chevy was relegated to fleet duty, where it currently resides.
