The Silverado 1500 lineup offers four engines so that you can match the truck to the job. The standard 2.7L TurboMax turbocharged four-cylinder puts out 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, which is more torque than you’d expect from a four-cylinder. It’s a great fit for daily driving, light towing, and stretching a tank of fuel a little further on long hauls.
Step up to the 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 (355 horsepower, 383 lb-ft) or the 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 (420 horsepower) for classic V8 muscle under the hood. For drivers who tow heavy loads regularly, the 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel delivers 495 lb-ft of torque and helps the truck reach a maximum towing capacity of up to 13,300 pounds when properly equipped. That’s enough to pull a sizable camper, a fully loaded equipment trailer, or just about any boat you’d want to take out on a Saturday morning.
Inside, the Silverado has come a long way from the basic work-truck dash of a few decades ago. Higher trims include a 13.4-inch diagonal touchscreen and a 12.3-inch Driver Information Center, both clean, easy to read, and quick to respond. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto are standard across the lineup, so your phone connects the moment you climb in.
Step up to the High Country trim, and you can add Super Cruise, the available hands-free driver assistance system that works on more than 200,000 miles of compatible roads. For trailering, available camera views (up to 14 of them) help you see around your trailer, hitch up faster, and back into tight spots without guessing.
Every trim comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist. This package includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam automatic high beams. These features work quietly in the background, helping you avoid the kind of close calls that can ruin a good day.
Inside, comfort options scale up quickly as you climb the trim ladder. Heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone climate control, and ventilated leather are all available, depending on the trim you pick. The 40/20/40 split-bench front seat (standard on WT) provides room for a third passenger and built-in storage. Crew Cab models open up real backseat space, making this truck a workable family hauler as well as a workhorse.
