Exterior

Features like the high-strength steel Durabed set the Silverado 1500 apart from other pickups on the market by making it great for hauling heavy loads. The Durabed’s roll-formed steel resists scratches and damage, even from abrasive materials like gravel. Twelve standard cargo tie-downs help you secure heavy items, while the cab-mounted lamps provide lighting in your cargo box when you’re working in the dark.

Standard exterior features of the 2025 Silverado 1500 include the CornerStep rear bumper, 17-inch steel wheels, all-season tires, and halogen headlamps. Available exterior features include a tailgate with EZ Lift, Z71 suspension for off-road adventures, and Rainsense automatic windshield wipers that turn on when they detect moisture on the glass.

Interior

Seating in the Silverado 1500 consists of two full bench seats that can each sit three passengers. The front seat is a 40/20/40 split with 4-way manual adjustments for the driver and outboard passenger. The back seat is a 60/40 split that you can fold upwards to make room for cargo items in your cabin.

Under the front bench seat, you’ll find a small storage compartment that’s perfect for tools, clothes, or travel essentials. The Silverado’s rubberized vinyl floor coverings can be taken out and cleaned after a dirty job, while the manual tilt steering column can be adjusted for comfort and efficiency.

Technology

The Silverado 1500 has a 7-inch Chevrolet Infotainment 3 touchscreen equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration for hands-free phone calls. This truck is also a Wi-Fi hotspot capable, offering internet access on up to ten smartphones, laptops, or tablets within 50 ft. of the truck.

Safety

The new Chevrolet Silverado 1500 comes with built-in Chevy Safety Assist and OnStar Basics, two innovative safety packages that offer increased peace of mind behind the wheel. Chevy Safety Assist uses driver-assistance functions like Automatic Emergency Braking to prevent common causes of accidents. OnStar Basics contains helpful resources like remote commands and live traffic updates to enhance your safety during unexpected situations on the road.

The standard engine in the Silverado 1500 is a TurboMax engine that yields 310 horsepower at 5600 rpm and 430 lb.-ft. of torque at 3000 rpm. Available engines include a 5.3L EcoTec3 V8, a 6.2L EcoTec3 V8, and a 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine.
