The Silverado pickup is an American classic, with rugged good looks, versatile performance-driven powertrains, and the capacity to tackle any job, no matter how large or small. The 2025 Chevy Silverado 1500 continues that legacy of excellence, giving drivers lots of reasons to fall in love.
4 Versatile, Hard-Working Powertrain Options
One of the biggest reasons drivers love the Silverado is that there are four versatile powertrains available. The innovative, efficient TurboMax powerplant, when paired with the standard 8-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission, generates 310 horsepower and 430 foot-pounds of torque. It also offers drivers great fuel mileage for a full-sized truck, with an estimated fuel efficiency of 18 MPG in the city and 21 MPG on the highway.
For those who prioritize raw power over fuel efficiency, there are two large-displacement engine options. There’s an available 355-horsepower 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 that creates 383 foot-pounds of torque, as well as a 420-horsepower 6.2-liter EcoTec3 that delivers 460 foot-pounds of torque. Finally, drivers can opt for diesel power with the 3.0-liter DuraMax Turbo Diesel that produces 305 horsepower and 495 foot-pounds of torque.
Terrific Towing and Payload-Hauling Power
Full-size pickups are built to handle the toughest of tasks, and the Silverado 1500 can both work hard and play hard. With a cabin capacity that can accommodate up to six adults, the Silverado can carry up to 2,280 pounds in its standard 6.5-foot long, 62.9 cubic-foot payload bed when outfitted with the proper equipment. Available amenities such as bedliners, cargo bed lighting, cargo tie-downs, and rear step bumpers simplify load carrying.
When additional payload capacity is required, the Silverado offers up to 13,300 pounds of towing capacity when properly equipped. Multiple trailer-friendly features are available on the Silverado 1500 that make towing easier, such as hitch guidance, hitch view, trailer hitch, trailering hitch platform, and an in-vehicle trailering app.
Technology That Keeps Drivers Safe and Connected Wherever They Roam
Modern connectivity and safety features have dramatically changed the driving experience, and the Silverado is loaded with driver assistance and infotainment that make driving safer and more streamlined. The Silverado has a 5-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and it has helpful features like automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, rear cross-traffic braking, and front pedestrian braking.
The infotainment features that come standard in the Silverado include a 6-speaker audio system, Bluetooth streaming, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a 7-inch color touchscreen, a 3.5-inch driver information center, and the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System.
The Silverado has become an American legend over the last few decades because of its rugged durability, hard-working capability, and lineup of innovative features. Contact AutoNation Chevrolet West Austin in Austin, TX, today to schedule a test drive and fall in love with the 2025 Silverado.
