2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500: Four Powertrains, One Redesigned Truck
The 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 does not ease into its changes, it leads with them. If you're anywhere in central New Jersey, Lester Glenn Chevrolet of Freehold wants you to size up a genuinely different truck, not a mild refresh. Here is what is actually different.
Power and Performance
Four powertrains anchor this generation. An improved 2.7-liter TurboMax opens the range, followed by the segment-exclusive 3.0-liter Duramax Turbo-Diesel, a next-generation 5.7-liter V8, and an all-new 6.6-liter V8. Chevrolet describes that 6.6-liter as the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in its class; final horsepower, torque, towing, and payload figures have not been announced. Every engine pairs with a 10-speed automatic, and four-wheel-drive trims of the 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 now include the Z71 Off-Road Package as standard.
Technology Features
More screen, more standard tech. Every trim gets a 16.3-inch infotainment touchscreen and a 12.2-inch digital Driver Information Center. High Country and ZR2 models add an 11.5-inch front passenger display, a Head-Up Display, and a Rear Camera Mirror on those trims, for more than 60 inches of combined display. Dual wireless charging, a Multi-Flex center console, and Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance with trailering capability are also available on the new Chevrolet truck.
Safety Features
The safety sheet reads longer this year. Standard equipment includes Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, Side Bicyclist Alert, Reverse Automatic Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Zone Steering Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, Front and Rear Park Assist, Rear Pedestrian Alert, IntelliBeam automatic high beams, Forward Collision Alert, Safety Alert Seat, and an HD Rear Vision Camera. Super Cruise comes standard on High Country and ZR2, and remains available on Silverado and Trail Boss.
Off-Roading
Three trims arrive factory-lifted. Custom Trail Boss and Trail Boss include a 2-inch lift and 34-inch mud-terrain tires. ZR2 raises the bar with a 2-inch lift, 35-inch mud-terrain tires, locking front and rear differentials, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and a unique off-road hood, and the available ZR2 Bison Edition adds AEV bumpers, rocker protection, 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels, and skid plates shielding the underbody, transfer case, and fuel tank.
