Chevy Silverado 1500 Towing Features

?
When buying a truck, picking a model and trim is only the beginning. You can also customize your Chevy Silverado 1500 so its capabilities perfectly fit your needs at work and play. Wayne Thomas Chevrolet explores what makes this truck uniquely versatile and the many choices at your disposal.

Powertrain Options

The Chevy Silverado 1500 has four available engines.

• A turbocharged 2.7-Liter, inline four-cylinder engine with 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque
• A 3.0-Liter, inline six-cylinder Duramax Turbodiesel engine with 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque
• A 5.3-Liter V-8 engine with 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque
• A 6.2-Liter V-8 engine with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque

The turbocharged four-cylinder engine only pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission, while the others pair with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is the default driveline on most trims, with four-wheel drive optional.

Cab and Bed Options

There are multiple Chevy Silverado 1500 bed and cab combinations, with your cab choice dictating the available beds. The regular cab can be paired with the 98.18-inch long bed. The 79.44-inch standard bed is offered with the double or Crew cab, while the 69.92-inch short bed is available only with the crew cab.

Towing and Hauling

Payload ranges from 1,900 to 2,180 pounds while towing ranges from 9,000 to 13,200 pounds. You may be wondering why there’s such a wide range of numbers.

Here’s why: the towing and payload capacities don’t fall into place until you’ve sorted your powertrain, bed, and cab choices. That’s because a truck’s capabilities result from each configuration’s frame, axle weights, and available power.
