Recognized as an industry leader in fuel economy, dependability and performance, the wide range of Silverado models include everything from jobsite-ready Work Truck models to the luxuriously appointed LTZ crew cab. Accolades include Consumer Reports 2010 Top Pick for Pickup Truck and Motor Trend's Truck of the Year.
The Silverado 1500's range of 4.8L, 5.3L and 6.2L V-8 engines offer E85 capability, while the 4.8L and 5.3L engines now feature variable valve timing. A six-speed automatic transmission is available on regular and extended cab models with the 5.3L V-8 and all 5.3L-equipped models feature a standard 3.08 axle ratio that enhances fuel economy. Side curtain airbags and seat-mounted side airbags are standard on all models.
Silverado heavy-duty models are ready for any task, whether work or leisure. They are offered in a range of 2500HD (three-quarter-ton) and 3500HD (one-ton) models; and are available in WT, LT and LTZ trim. A wide range of configurations - three cab styles, three cargo box styles and five wheelbase lengths - delivers tremendous choice.
The Silverado HD pickups also offer many segment-best capabilities, including 18,500-pound (8,392 kg) gross combined vehicle weight rating for vehicles with a gas V-8 and a 13,000-pound (5,897 kg) conventional trailer weight rating enabled by a larger-capacity trailer hitch platform. Maximum towing capacity is 16,700 pounds (7,575 kg), when equipped with a fifth-wheel hitch.
The Silverado Hybrid is a powerful, full-size pickup that achieves 40-percent greater city fuel economy and a 25-percent improvement in overall fuel economy while delivering the capability expected of a full-size truck - including a 6100 lb (2767 kg) towing capacity. Utilizing a two-mode hybrid system and a powerful 6.0L gas V-8, the Silverado Hybrid delivers highly efficient performance, including all-electric driving up to 30 mph.
