Powertrains for the New Chevy Silverado 1500
The Silverado 1500 offers an impressive lineup of four engine choices to meet many different needs. The standard engine is the turbocharged four-cylinder. This engine may seem small for a full-sized pickup truck, but it more than meets the moment with 310 horsepower and is the best option if you are worried about fuel costs around Oregon and Toledo. The available 6.2-liter V8 generates a best-in-class 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, allowing you to tow heavy loads with confidence. There is also a 5.3-liter V8 option that can tow up to 11,500 pounds. For maximum fuel efficiency, choose the 3.0-liter Duramax Turbo-Diesel that achieves an EPA-estimated 23 MPG city/29 MPG highway while still delivering 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque. Paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and available four-wheel drive, the Silverado 1500 is built to conquer any terrain or weather condition around Genoa or Woodville.
