When you need a heavy-duty truck to that can handle anything you throw at it, you think of Chevy trucks. The 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500 is the latest in a long lineage of workhorse trucks, with plenty of innovation to modernize the classic performance they’re known for.
Reliable Power
The Silverado 2500 can be built with one of two powerhouse engines that run with an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission. The 6.6-liter V8 gas engine puts out 401 horsepower at 5,200 rmp, with 464 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm and a 3.73 rear axle ratio. The 6.6-liter Duramax Turbo V8 diesel engine produces 470 horsepower at 2,800 rpm and 975 lb-ft of torque at 1,600 rpm with a 3.42 rear axle ratio.
J.D. Power has rated the Silverado 2500 as the best truck in the Heavy Duty class for Long-Term Dependability for five years in a row, with the fewest reported problems. You can rest assured that your Chevy truck will be ready to go when you need it.
Stay Connected With Advanced Technology
Although the Silverado is built to work hard, you don’t need to sacrifice the amenities in your truck. A 13.4-inch diagonal Infotainment touch-screen lets you access your smartphone and available apps in the console. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are available to connect wirelessly, and built-in Google compatibility lets you use the familiar Google interface on the built-in apps.
A 12.3-inch diagonal Driver Information Center puts all the metrics and information you need to keep track of your truck’s performance while you drive right in your sight line, so you can keep your eyes on the road. High contrast background and customizable layouts let you set up your display the way you like it.
Tow Your Heavy Loads
The Silverado is built to haul heavy loads over long distances. The gas engine pulls up to 19,090 lb, while the Duramax diesel handles up to 36,000 lb in towing capacity. You can be confident in your truck’s capability even with that oversized trailer behind you when you’re pulling with a Silverado.
In addition to the raw power, the Silverado has a host of additional features that help make towing easier and safer. With up to 14 camera views, you can get a 360-degree view on your surroundings, which comes in particularly useful when you need to back a large trailer.
