We’ve highlighted in-depth the all-new 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and new 5.3-liter V8 with Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM), which will be joined by a mostly carryover 4.3-liter V6, a 5.3-liter V8 with Active Fuel Management (AFM), a 6.2-liter V8 and a 3.0-liter turbocharged diesel inline-six. There are three transmissions: They are six-, eight- and 10-speed automatics. Plus, these various powertrain options will be spread across eight trim levels: Work Truck, Custom, Custom Trailboss, RST, LT, LT Trailboss, LTZ and High Country.

Not every engine and trim level are available together, so to help ease any confusion, we’ve broken down which engines go with which transmissions and fuel management systems, and which of those can be had on each trim. We’ll start with a chart showing the different trims and powertrains.

Chart of 2019 Chevy Silverado engine and trim combinations

Following this chart, we should explain the engine and transmission pairings. A six-speed automatic comes with the V6 and the 5.3-liter V8 with AFM (the current cylinder deactivation system that can run on all or half the cylinders). For the turbocharged four-cylinder and the 5.3-liter V8 with DFM (it can run on any combination or number of cylinders), only the eight-speed automatic is available. The 6.2-liter V8 and turbodiesel get the 10-speed automatic. Of additional note, the eight- and 10-speed automatics also get a unique damper for reducing vibrations from the cylinder-deactivating gas engines, and the non-deactivating diesel.

The different trim levels feature different powertrain combinations, but most also have different styling. As such, we’ve also included images of each trim level below, in order to decide which you prefer. They are in order from lowest trim to highest.

And now that the company has announced an all-new turbocharged four-cylinder, which you can read about here, you’d be forgiven for thinking that there wasn’t much going on with the V8s, but that’s not the case. Though the power is the same, they’re packing some seriously cool cylinder deactivation technology, and we got to try it firsthand.

What makes the new cylinder deactivation system, now called “Dynamic Fuel Management” or DFM for short, is that every single cylinder can be shut off as needed. In contrast, the old system called “Active Fuel Management” or AFM for short, only shut off a set group of cylinders, four in the V8 and two in the V6. The added controls not only allow for different groups of cylinders to be shut off, but up to seven can be deactivated. That being said, in said single-cylinder firing, the engine computer isn’t keeping just one cylinder firing over and over. It picks which cylinders to fire and skip based on fractions. For instance, it can choose to fire every third cylinder. So in the firing order, every third cylinder fires, and the two preceding and following are shut off. And it just keeps following that pattern until it decides something else is needed. And it decides what is needed 80 times a second, picking from 17 different firing combinations. It can also ramp up and down the firing fractions in order to make the changeover smoother, and the varied cylinder firing helps mask the fact that it isn’t always firing every cylinder.

Speaking of improving smoothness, Chevy also implemented a neat damper in the eight- and 10-speed automatic transmissions fitted to these updated V8s, the new turbocharged four-cylinder and diesel six-cylinder. It helps keep vibrations from the engine getting to the driveline, and how much it dampens the vibrations is based on how much the torque converter is allowed to slip by the computer. And the computer knows this based on what the engine firing pattern is.

2019 5.3L V-8 DFM VVT DI (L84) for Chevrolet Silverado

So how does all this work in practice? Well, it works as advertised. We drove it back-to-back with a current model and the old type of cylinder deactivation, and it was just as smooth if not more so. The thing is, the current system is pretty smooth as it is, so any gains are small. In addition to being smooth, the engine never felt slow at jumping into full V8 mode. Of course if for some unknown reason you don’t want this system in your V8 Silverado, the current system is used on the optional 5.3-liter V8 for the entry-level Work Truck and Custom Silverados, plus the standard engine on the Custom Trailboss.

And if you do want the new engine, it’s the optional engine on the RST and LT trims, which have the four-cylinder standard, and standard on the LT Trailboss, LTZ and High Country trims. RST, LT, LTZ and High Country trims can also be had with the new turbodiesel, and the latter two trims have the updated 6.2-liter V8 as yet another option.

Of course, as interesting the engine is and as well as it works, an engine alone does not a pickup truck make. It’s still got to handle and ride well. And in our roughly 10- to 15-minute loop, the Silverado feels pretty good. The biggest improvement seems to be in the steering. It’s quicker, tighter and more precise than the old one. The front end turns in readily, making it feel nimble. The steering is lighter, too, which isn’t necessarily great, but it’s not unpleasant either.

Ride quality seems more of a lateral move than the steering and handling. Overall, it’s much softer than the slightly stiff old truck. It takes the edge off most bumps, but it also introduces more floatiness. So depending on your preference, it could be better or worse.

Pricing and fuel economy for the new 5.3-liter Silverados, as well as the other trim levels and engine options have yet to be revealed. Those specifications will be announced later in the year, closer to when the trucks go on sale.

Ram has gone with ultra-mild hybrid technology, and Ford has gone with turbocharged V6 engines, a new diesel, and a 10-speed transmission. Until now, it appeared Chevy and GMC were going to focus on improving naturally aspirated V8s and adding a diesel. But it turns out Chevy had one other engine up its sleeve: a turbocharged four-cylinder.

Displacing just 2.7 liters, it is the smallest engine available on the 2019 Silverado – 300 cc less than the turbodiesel engine that’s also coming. But don’t let the size fool you. This new four-cylinder has specs that outperform the effectively carryover 4.3-liter naturally aspirated V6. At 310 horsepower and 348 pound-feet of torque, the inline-four has a 25 horse and 43 pound-foot advantage over the V6. And while exact fuel economy numbers have yet to be released, Chevy says the turbo engine will be more efficient than the V6. On top of all that, the four-cylinder also boasts a peak torque plateau between 1,500 and 4,000 rpm, while peak power comes at 5,600 rpm.

Chevy put a lot of work and some fascinating technology into this engine to get these numbers. First off, the company claims that this engine is completely new; not a modified version of an existing turbocharged GM four-cylinder. It was built from the ground up as a truck engine. Like some of its larger brethren, it also features cylinder deactivation, and it can shut off two of its cylinders, made possible by a nifty variable cam lift feature.

The camshafts themselves can slide in order to select different cam profiles, and all of the cylinders can run in a high-lift setting for maximum power, or they can shift to a low-lift setting for improved fuel economy under reduced load. There’s also a third setting that will shut off valves to two cylinders while keeping two others in low-lift mode for maximum fuel economy at cruising speeds.

In addition to the trick camshafts, Chevy did a bit of fiddling with the turbo and the cooling system. Chevy is now among many companies employing exhaust manifolds integrated into the head, which allows Chevy to provide additional cooling to the exhaust close to the turbo. This also helps warm up the engine more quickly at start-up.

Getting back to the turbocharger, it features an evolution of the twin-scroll design, but instead of the exhaust pulses coming to the impeller side-by-side on one end of the impeller, they come in on opposite sides of the impeller wheel, as shown in the diagram above. So instead of one set of pulses hitting the outside of the impeller, and another hitting the inside, both sets are catching the outside of the impeller. Bolted to the turbo is an electric wastegate, which can open at cruising speeds and let exhaust flow more freely, improving cruising fuel economy.

Now that we’ve made it through all this tech talk, the big question is, is the four-cylinder any good? And we can give you an answer because we were given a chance to drive a prototype back-to-back with a current V6 model for comparison. And in general, it’s a big improvement. The low-down torque is very noticeable, helping it take off with more authority than the old V6 model. The turbo spools up very quickly and there’s hardly any lag when hitting the gas. Odds are any delay you might feel is coming from the transmission, which is an 8-speed automatic for reference. That automatic transmission has some neat features, too, but we’ll dig deeper into that in the eight-cylinder prototype drive.

The 2019 Silverado RST comes standard with an all-new, advanced 2.7L Turbo engine Active Fuel Management and stop/start technology, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Available 5.3L V-8 engine is paired with an eight-speed transmission and featured industry-first Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM) with 17 different modes of cylinder deactivation.

Not everything is perfect with the four-cylinder though. Our big complaint is that, well, it sounds like a four-cylinder, and it certainly doesn’t come close to the hearty burble of the V8s. In fact, when really worked, it starts to get a bit coarse and buzzy. Thankfully, it does deliver good pulling power even as you’re working it, so it doesn’t feel strained. And it always seems to pull harder and rev more readily than the lazy old V6.

If you want to pick up a four-cylinder for yourself, it’s only offered on LT and RST trims as the standard engine, taking the place of the V6. Those trims can also be had with the optional 5.3-liter V8 with Chevy’s new cylinder deactivation system that can shut off as many as seven cylinders, or the new 3.0-liter turbodiesel. The LT Trail Boss is only available with the 5.3-liter engine. The entry-level Work Truck and Classic trims still come standard with the 4.3-liter V6, and their optional engine is the 5.3-liter V8 that can only shut off four cylinders. Classic Trail Boss is only available with that V8. The top-end LTZ and High Country come with the fancy 5.3-liter V8 standard with options in the form of the 6.2-liter V8 and turbodiesel. Pricing and fuel economy of all these trucks will be announced later this year, closer to when the trucks go on sale.

Like its major rivals in this hotly contested segment — including the Ford F-150, Toyota Tundra, Nissan Titan and Ram 1500 – the Silverado has an option sheet that can make this a mudslinging work truck or a 21st-century luxury office on wheels.

In terms of cab length, there are three choices — Regular, Double and Crew — along with the available Short, Standard or Long cargo bed. Engines range from a 4.3-liter V6 and a 5.3-liter V8 up to a range-topping 6.2-liter V8. The Silverado can be ordered with a choice of two- or four-wheel drive, and transmissions include both a six- and eight-speed automatic, depending on choice of powertrain and trim.

Changes for the 2018 model year include the standard fitment of a rearview camera, along with a Tire Fill Alert system that lets the driver know when the correct pressure has been reached. A 7.0-inch touch-screen stereo system is also now standard equipment on the base Silverado.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado

Is the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado safe?

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado an overall crash-test rating of five stars. In front- and side-impact tests, the latest Silverado 1500 scored a five-star safety rating. A four-star rating was recorded in the rollover resistance test; this rating applies to Silverado trucks fitted with either rear- or all-wheel drive. Because the Silverado is so popular, NHTSA conducted crash tests on models fitted with both of these drivetrains, and in two cab lengths.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, which provides ratings for new vehicles based on its own comprehensive crash tests, tested two versions of the Silverado 1500. The extended-cab model registered “good” ratings in all but one of the IIHS’ crash tests. Driver side protection in the small overlap test was deemed “acceptable” — front-passenger-side results are not rated in this test. Headlight effectiveness was given a “poor” rating, however. The ease of use of the child seat LATCH anchors was deemed “marginal” in the extended-cab Silverado.

Ratings suffer slightly for the Silverado in Crew Cab format. Driver-side protection in the front small overlap test drops to “marginal,” while the headlights and available LATCH system both scored “poor” ratings.

Ratings may differ for Silverado trucks from other model years, so be sure to visit the NHTSA and IIHS websites to review ratings on the specific vehicle you’re researching.

At the time of this writing, the 2018 Silverado is not listed as being part of any ongoing recalls.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado Z71

Is the Silverado reliable?

J.D. Power most recently reviewed initial quality in the 2017 Silverado 1500 — no ratings are available for the 2018 model year. At the time, it gave the Silverado five out of five possible stars — a rating referred to as “among the best” — for overall quality, overall quality mechanical, body and interior quality mechanical and overall quality design.

Lower three-star ratings, listed as “about average,” were recorded in several categories: powertrain quality mechanical, powertrain quality design and body and interior quality design.

A note about J.D. Power’s methodology: We have some rather serious issues with the way it weights serious and less serious reliability issues. Read more about that here.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 High Country

How much interior and cargo room does the Silverado have?

The 2018 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab seats five to six people, with 45.2 inches of front legroom and 40.9 inches in the backseat. Cargo volume ranges from 53.4 to 61.0 cubic feet, based on whether the short or standard box is chosen. Depending on the engine and drivetrain, the maximum available payload is 2,170 lbs.

The Silverado Double Cab has space for five or six people. It offers the same 45.2 inches of front legroom as the Crew Cab, but has slightly less space in the back, with 34.6 inches of backseat legroom. Available only with the standard box, total cargo volume is 61.0 cubic feet. Maximum available payload is 2,250 lbs.

The Silverado Regular Cab has seating for three and offers 45.2 inches of front legroom. Available with the standard or long box, cargo volume ranges from 61 to 76.3 cubic feet. Maximum available payload is 1,980 lbs.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado High Country

What are the Silverado engine choices and specs?

The Chevrolet Silverado comes in six main trim levels. The entry-level WT (Work Truck) is followed by the LS, Custom, LT, LTZ and High Country. Both the LT and LTZ trim levels can be equipped with the Z71 off-road package. Engines include a 4.3-liter V6 that delivers 285 horsepower and 305 lb-ft of torque at 3,900 rpm. Next is a 5.3-liter V8, which delivers a total of 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque at 4,100 rpm. Lastly, and available only on the LTZ and High Country at the time of this writing, is a 6.2-liter V8 that offers 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque at 4,100 rpm.

A six-speed automatic transmission is fitted to the V6 and comes standard on lower trim levels equipped with the 5.3-liter V8. An eight-speed automatic becomes available on 5.3-liter V8s at the LTZ trim level. Meanwhile, the eight-speed auto is standard with the 6.2-liter V8.

What fuel economy does the Silverado get?

Mileage varies from model to model, depending on which size cabin and bed length is chosen, along with the choice of engine and powertrain configuration. The EPA rates the standard 4.3-liter V6 (fitted with a six-speed automatic gearbox and rear-wheel drive) at 18 miles per gallon in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. A mid-range 5.3-liter V8 fitted with all-wheel drive gets 16 mpg city/22 mpg highway. The 6.2-liter V8 with all-wheel drive is the thirstiest of all, with a rating of 15 mpg city/20 mpg highway.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ Z71

Is there a hybrid Silverado?

Chevrolet now offers a “mild hybrid” known as the eAssist Package. This electric powertrain is not strong enough to motive the truck on its own, but coupled to the 5.3-liter V8 and eight-speed automatic, and with a choice of rear- or all-wheel drive, eAssist delivers 18 mpg city/24 mpg highway in rear-wheel-drive format. This dips to 16 city/21 highway mpg with the optional four-wheel drive.

Does the Silverado have 4WD?

The Silverado 1500 has four-wheel drive available on all trim levels.

What is the MSRP of the Silverado?

The 2018 Silverado 1500 with a regular cab, standard cargo box and rear-wheel drive has a starting MSRP of $ 29,695 (excluding destination fee and taxes).

At the middle of the range, Silverado in Custom trim, fitted with a double cab and standard cargo box, along with the 5.3-liter V8 and optional 4WD, starts at around $ 39,595. A Silverado in High Country trim, with crew cab and standard cargo box, and fitted with the 6.2-liter V8 and AWD, rings in at $ 56,995.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado Z71

Can I read the latest review of the Silverado?

Autoblog says the current-generation Silverado is “smooth and comfortable, with crisp looks and squared-off shoulders.” But since this generation of Silverado went on sale back in 2014, competitors such as the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 have received major updates.

This is why the 2019 Chevrolet gets thoroughly reworked, with a more aggressive-looking exterior, a wider range of trim levels, a totally updated cabin and new features such as a 10-speed automatic fitted to the optional 6.2-liter V8. Chevrolet has also trimmed hundreds of pounds from the curb weight of this new Silverado, despite not using aluminum in the cargo bed like its crosstown rival, the Ford F-150. These weight savings should improve fuel economy and overall driving dynamics. The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 arrives fall 2018, so there could be plenty of deals on the outgoing 2018 model.

Another piece of the fullsize Chevy truck puzzle is slowly being revealed. The Bowtie brand plans to officially unveil the 2020 Chevy Silverado HD sometime next year, and though that’s all very vague, pickup fans do at least have one teaser to obsess over. Chevy hints at “bolder, larger proportions” for the 2020 Silverado HD, and from the looks of the teaser, that may be an understatement.

Immediately apparent is a big, bold, chrome grille with the Chevrolet script appearing in a cutout relief that lets the mesh of the grille show through. The chrome center line of that grille cuts through what may be dual lighting elements, LEDs at the top and more traditional reflector units below. A seriously massive hood scoop sits atop a power bulge that may or may not be necessary to cover what’s likely an upgraded Duramax diesel engine, but either way, it’s an in-your-face design element with its chromed-out leading edge.

This early sneak peek gives us a look at the next-gen Silverado HD in Z71 trim, which means there may be more than one fascia planned. At least in this trim level, there doesn’t appear to be a golden Bowtie leading the way. Although we haven’t gotten a look at the rear, we wouldn’t be surprised to see the Chevrolet name stamped into the tailgate, either.

Chevy says that on-road testing is about to commence for its next generation of HD pickups (which is kinda funny since we’ve already seen spy photos of the trucks out in the wild). Expect a whole heck of a lot more detail to filter out in the coming months, including engine specifications and the all-important tow and payload ratings. In the meantime, feel free to dissect the teaser image up above.

Chevrolet has just revealed its newest addition to the Silverado line, the medium-duty 4500HD, 5500HD and 6500HD trucks. This is significant for a few reasons. For one, this is the first time GM has been in the medium-duty segment of trucks since killing off the Chevy Kodiak and GMC TopKick almost a decade ago. Plus, this will now give Chevy a truck for every segment: small trucks with the Colorado, standard full-size pickups with the Silverado 1500, heavier duty full-size pickups with the 2500HD and 3500HD, and of course these new medium-duty trucks. Among consumer-focused truck brands, only Ford will be able match Chevy for truck range now that it will offer the new Ford Ranger in America.

As for the new Silverado itself, it looks like someone force-fed the outgoing Silverado steroids until it ballooned in shape and size. The grille is semi-truck tall, and the fenders are broad. But the result is actually rather handsome and cleanly styled. It’s all pretty par for the course as far as styling in this class.

Under the truck’s huge tilting hood is a 6.6-liter Duramax turbocharged diesel V8. It makes 350 horsepower and 700 pound-feet of torque. Interestingly, this is less power and torque than the 6.6-liter Duramax produces in the 2500 and 3500 models. That engine makes 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. But hey, the 4500HD-and-up models aren’t built for drag racing. The supersized Silverados all use an Allison automatic transmission with available power takeoff.

Chevrolet also highlighted a few things it has done to make the truck easier to up-fit and easier to live with. Apparently the tops of the frame rails are smoothed out and flat, making it easier to fit beds and cargo boxes. The truck’s front wheels can be turned to an angle of 50 degrees, which Chevy says allows not just better maneuverability, but also makes it easier to get up close to the engine for servicing. The company worked on making the truck quieter and more comfortable, even offering factory-installed air suspension, something Chevy says isn’t offered by Ford or Ram. The new Silverados can also be fitted with 4GLTE Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and wireless phone charging.

Chevrolet will have order guides available in the spring, and pricing will be announced this summer. Production of the new medium-duty Silverados begins late this year. So expect to start seeing these huge Chevys more often in the near future.

The Yenko name dates all the way back to 1929 when a man named Frank Yenko opened a Durant dealer in Pennsylvania. That dealer eventually folded, but Yenko followed it up a few years later with two Chevrolet dealerships, the second of which was run by Yenko’s son Don. That’s the dealer that built all the hot rods and muscle cars. Yenko business was sold in 1982, though the name has cropped up a few times over the years, licensed by various shops.

This Silverado follows the same formula as most other Yenko-branded products. The truck uses a 6.8-liter GM LT1 V8 with an aluminum block, a forged-steel crank and connecting rods, forged aluminum pistons, ported heads, an upgraded fuel system and a tune. The coup de gras is a custom supercharger that brings the total engine output to 800 horsepower, though there isn’t a torque figure listed.

Other performance upgrades include stainless steel headers, high-flow cats, stainless steel exhaust, six-piston Brembo brakes, 22-inch torque thrust-style wheels with Michelin rubber and lowered suspension (2 inches up front, 5 inches in the rear). Visually, the Yenko/SC Silverado gets Yenko cowl and side stripes, an SYC graphic on the hood, Yenko badges on the grille, door and tailgate, and some other 800 horsepower and 6.8-liter badges and crests.

Now, this package isn’t cheap. It’s $ 46,995 on top of the price of a regular-cab Silverado. There are even a few options including a painted supercharger or some extremely sweet houndstooth seats. The truck does come with a 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty. There will only be a handful built, so get your $ 10,000 deposit ready.

Now that the new Silverado has made its debut, we’re awaiting the reveal of its mildly restyled twin, the GMC Sierra 1500. While it likely won’t be that different as far as capability and major equipment are concerned, we are looking forward to seeing what design changes it will have. Based on these recent spy shots, the changes will be mild, but still enough to make it visually distinctive.

One of the more obvious differences will be in the front fascia treatment. Unlike the Silverado’s grille that’s level with the top of the headlights, the GMC’s will rise above the lights, which will also yield a slight drop on each side of the hood to meet the lights. The grille is quite tall, extending far below the headlights, too. We can make out, behind some mesh, two dips on the outer edges of the grille that give the Sierra a more menacing frown. Large foglights are also found right near where the scoops for the wheel air curtains, and the headlights are unified on the edges, rather than split on the Silverado.

Along the sides, the sheet metal looks relatively unchanged. At some angles, we can make out the distinctive shoulder line from the Silverado that runs up to about the rear mirrors where it stops to make room for another crease that rises up from somewhere in the middle of the front doors to lead to the front. The wheel arches are decidedly different from the Silverado’s though. While the Silverado has fairly rounded arches, the Sierra’s have a rear-slanted bevel to the fronts of the arches and a rounded 90-degree corner at the rears.

There isn’t much we can tell about the rear except for the taillights. They’re quite large, and unlike the Silverado’s, there aren’t any areas where the sheet metal intrudes. It also appears that the tops of the taillights extend farther forward into the bed sides than the Chevy’s.

Because the Sierra has almost always been a mechanical twin of the Silverado, we expect it to offer the same 5.3-liter and 6.2-liter V8s, as well as the new 3.0-liter diesel inline-6. Also, being a GMC, it will likely have a flashy, chrome-laden Denali trim level. We also will see the fully revealed model soon, as Automotive News reports the debut will be on March 1.
