1. TurboMax Engine

The new Silverado has a TurboMax engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission for smooth performance and more powerful capabilities. This engine provides 310 horsepower and 430 lb.-ft. of torque. The TurboMax engine is standard on all Silverado 1500 trims except the LTZ.

2. Chevy Safety Assist

Chevy Safety Assist is a comprehensive safety package that uses assistive driving features to give drivers more peace of mind on the road. These features include:

  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Forward Collision Alert
  • Front Pedestrian Braking
  • Following Distance Indicator
  • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
  • IntelliBeam

Assistive driving features are supplemental and should be used responsibly. Always remain alert and focused while using Chevy Safety Assist, as it cannot prevent 100% of collisions on its own.

3. Solar Absorbing Glass

Solar Absorbing Glass keeps your skin safe from harmful UV rays while driving in sunny conditions. It also prevents intense sunlight from fading your leather interior and helps maintain a cooler temperature in your cabin. Solar Absorbing Glass is standard on the WT trim and unavailable on higher trims.

4. MultiFlex Tailgate

Available MultiFlex Tailgate makes loading cargo a breeze thanks to six different functions. ​This includes a fold-down step built into the tailgate for ​easier access to the truck bed. The MultiFlex ​Tailgate is available on all trims of the Chevy Silverado 1500.

5. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Capability

Connect your smartphone to your truck with Wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. These systems allow you to make phone calls, send texts, ​and use GPS navigation from the comfort of your driver’s seat.

6. Wi-Fi Hotspot Capabilities

Turn your Chevy Silverado into a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot that provides a stable internet connection for multiple devices.

7. Teen Driver

The Teen Driver system allows you to monitor your teen’s driving even when you’re not with them. The Silverado creates a detailed report of your teen’s driving habits so that you can spot bad ​behaviors ​and ​work towards ​better driving skills.

8. OnStar & Chevrolet Connected Services

Your ​Silverado 1500 can connect with OnStar ​Emergency ​Services. These services help you get ​fast assistance from first responders in the event of an accident or medical ​emergency behind the wheel.
