2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Chevy trucks are on a roll with significant updates for the 2016 Silverado 1500 full-size pickup.

New front end designs with bold horizontal elements, sculpted hoods and dramatic lighting reflect strength and refinement.

Changes for 2016 include expanded use of eight-speed automatic transmissions, updated Chevy MyLink with support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and additional safety technologies.

Offering unprecedented power, fuel-efficiency and technology, Silverado 1500 is built to get things done. So it's no surprise Silverado LD was named the "Highest Ranked Large Light Duty Pickup in Initial Quality" by J.D. Power in 2015. The redesign of the 2016 Silverado 1500 is part of an aggressive strategy to build on Chevy Trucks' momentum.

Silverado's trio of EcoTec3 engines -- a 4.3L V-6, 5.3L V-8 and 6.2L V-8 -- is designed for the needs of full-size truck customers. Each features direct injection, Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing to make the most of power, torque and efficiency across a broad range of operating conditions.

The entire 2016 Silverado lineup is available with a number of features engineered for serious towing, including the available NHT max trailering package, which features a 9.76-inch rear axle, heavy-duty rear springs, revised shock tuning, enhanced cooling and an integrated trailer brake controller to optimize capability and comfort when trailering.
