Chevrolet Silverado
What To Expect
The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 will likely receive a handful of equipment upgrades. According to reports, adaptive cruise control will become standard on the plush High Country, and the off-road ZR2 model will get standard parking sensors. The Custom trim is set to gain a black exterior trim package, and the Midnight Edition will receive restyled wheels. The current generation of Chevy’s full-size pickup launched in 2019 and underwent a refresh for 2022. An all-new Silverado 1500 is expected for the 2027 model year.
The Silverado 1500‘s trim levels and configurations aren’t likely to change for 2025. Buyers will have a choice of Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab body styles, plus three bed lengths: the 5.8-foot short bed, 6.6-foot standard bed, and 8-foot long bed. The Silverado can seat up to six. The deep model lineup ranges from the workaday WT trim to the adventure-ready ZR2.
2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Engine & Specs
The 2025 Silverado 1500 will likely retain its current engine roster. The standard engine for most trims is a turbocharged 2.7-liter four-cylinder with 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. The 2.7-liter can tow up to 9,500 pounds. Towing capacity rises to 11,500 pounds with the available 5.3-liter V8, which develops 355 hp and 383 lb-ft.
For enhanced efficiency, Chevy offers a 3.0-liter six-cylinder turbodiesel with 305 hp and 495 lb-ft of torque. The top choice is a 6.2-liter V8 good for 420 hp and 460 lb-ft. When equipped with the turbodiesel or 6.2-liter, the Silverado 1500 is rated to tow up to 13,300 pounds. Four-wheel drive is standard on the Trailboss and ZR2, and optional on all other trims.
2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Safety
Every 2025 Silverado 1500 will likely come with lane-keeping assist, automatic high beams, and automatic emergency braking. Popular options will include blind-spot monitoring, parking sensors, reverse automatic braking, surround-view cameras, and adaptive cruise control.
These items are standard on the upper trims, which can also be equipped with a head-up display, rearview camera mirrors, and a bed camera. GM’s Supercruise hands-free highway driving system will probably remain available on the High Country only.
The Silverado 1500 earns a five-star overall safety rating from NHTSA.
2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Price
We expect pricing to reflect a modest inflationary increase for 2025. The Silverado 1500’s MSRP currently starts at $38,695 including destination and climbs to $71,795 for the ZR2 before options.
The 2025 Silverado 1500 will compete with other regular-duty full-size pickups like the Ford F-150, RAM 1500, Nissan Titan, and Toyota Tundra.
2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Release Date
