2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

The 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 comes in nine trim levels: Work Truck (WT), Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, LTZ, High Country, and ZR2. The WT, the Silverado's base trim, offers the Silverado's iconic body, giving it a powerful presence on the highway, at work sites, and every place in between. For more exterior details, consider a higher trim, like the RST, which provides a special grille and LED lights. The more luxurious option is the High Country, which adds luxuries like a bold front grille and branded decals. If you're looking for a truck that can handle the toughest terrains, choose the extra-rugged ZR2. This brand-new trim is built especially for off-roaders. The ZR2 comes with electronic locking differentials, powerful tires, special front bumpers, and chassis upgrades that make it durable, athletic, and adventurous.

The base engine on the 2022 Silverado is a 2.7-liter turbocharged engine with four cylinders, coming in at 310 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. It may be the base engine, but it's anything but basic. Other available engines include a 5.3-liter V-8, delivering 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, and a 6.2-liter V-8, which offers 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. If you'd prefer diesel, you can equip your Silverado with a 3-liter Turbo-Diesel engine with 277 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque.

As you might expect, the 2022 Silverado doesn't disappoint when it's time to pull heavy loads. The base engine can haul an impressive 9,600 pounds, and the truck only gets more powerful as you upgrade the engine. The 5.3-liter V-8 can handle up to 11,200 pounds, and the 6.2-liter V-8 is capable of towing 13,300 pounds. New in 2022, diesel engine trucks can add Chevrolet's max tow package to bring their capacity up from 9,500 pounds to 13,300 pounds.

The 2022 model of Chevrolet's iconic pickup truck comes with a rejuvenated interior design. With fresh materials, a new center console layout, and plenty of modern details, the truck's new interior is comfortable, inviting, and state-of-the-art. The LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, LTZ, ZR2, and High Country trims all feature a standard 13.4-inch color touch screen with sharp graphics and plenty of connectivity options. The infotainment system pairs with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The latest Silverado also comes with a Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa compatibility, so someone's always around to help you make calls and find information without ever taking your hands off the wheel.

The Chevy Safety Assist package comes standard on all 2022 Silverado models. This package is a suite of safety technology features that help you stay in control of your truck, no matter the terrain. Among the features included are automatic emergency braking, front pedestrian braking, following distance alert, forward collision alert, high beam assist, and lane management tools to prevent you from veering or changing lanes unsafely.
