Pricing and Model Choices
How much is the WT's factory starting MSRP?
The WT's starting MSRP is $38,600 before destination, options, taxes and fees. It includes the enhanced TurboMax and 10-speed automatic, plus the standard 16.3-inch screen and 12.2-inch driver display. Chevrolet lists a $2,795 destination freight charge in addition to the base vehicle price.
What is the High Country starting price?
High Country starts at $71,700 MSRP before destination and optional equipment. It includes the 5.7L V8, 22-inch wheels, panoramic sunroof and passenger display. The Duramax diesel and 6.6L V8 are available alternatives, so an equipped truck's price also follows its powertrain and other selected options.
What is the ZR2 starting price?
ZR2 starts at $77,200 MSRP before destination, optional equipment, taxes and fees. Its standard engine is the Duramax diesel. The trim includes 35-inch tires, locking differentials and Multimatic DSSV dampers; the available 6.6L V8 changes the engine choice while the ZR2 chassis remains the off-road-focused package.
Are destination charges part of the base prices?
The base MSRPs shown here exclude destination. Chevrolet lists $2,795 destination freight for this lineup, making the WT's $38,600 base price $41,395 with destination before options, taxes and other fees. Dealer sets final price. The same price basis is used across the trim starting-price table.
Does Silverado identify a trim as well as the truck?
Yes. The 2027 Silverado trim, formerly LT, sits alongside WT, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, Trail Boss, High Country and ZR2. It starts at $47,900 before destination and options. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are included, with Z71 equipment standard on four-wheel-drive versions.
Engines and Trailering
How much torque does the TurboMax make?
The 2.7L TurboMax produces 455 lb-ft of torque and 350 horsepower. It is paired with a 10-speed automatic in the 2027 Silverado. The engine is standard in WT, and its published highest-payload configuration is a Regular Cab Standard Bed 2WD truck, rated up to 2,340 pounds.
How powerful is the 5.7L V8?
The 5.7L gasoline V8 makes 402 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque. It is standard in High Country and uses a 10-speed automatic. The properly equipped Double Cab Standard Bed 2WD with this engine and Max Trailering Package is the Silverado's 13,700-lb maximum towing configuration.
What output does the 6.6L gasoline V8 offer?
The 6.6L V8 develops 481 horsepower and 501 lb-ft of torque. It is available in High Country and ZR2 with the 10-speed automatic. Chevrolet lists a maximum trailer rating of 9,700 lbs for its named Crew Cab 4WD configuration; engine output and towing capacity remain separate specifications.
How much torque does the Duramax diesel supply?
The 3.0L Duramax inline-six supplies 495 lb-ft of torque and 305 horsepower. ZR2 includes the diesel, while High Country and WT offer it within their applicable configurations. Chevrolet's 12,000-lb diesel towing maximum uses a Crew Cab Short Bed 4WD with the Max Trailering Package.
Can a lifted-truck MPG figure differ from another 4WD Silverado?
Yes. EPA records separate mud-terrain-tire and ZR2 entries in addition to standard-tire four-wheel-drive entries. The engine and tire classification determine the applicable row. Route 61 commuting, trailer load and winter conditions can also change actual fuel consumption from the EPA city and highway test results.
Features and Technology
How big is the standard driver display?
The Driver Information Center measures 12.2 inches diagonally and is standard across the 2027 Silverado lineup. It works alongside the 16.3-inch center touchscreen. High Country and ZR2 add an 11.5-inch passenger screen, giving those cabins a further display in addition to the two standard driver-facing screens.
Does the infotainment support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?
Yes. The 2027 Silverado supports compatible Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections alongside native Google built-in features. Connected services have account and plan requirements. The center screen measures 16.3 inches across the lineup, so the main display size is included even on the work-focused WT trim.
Which models have the panoramic sunroof?
The panoramic sunroof is standard on High Country and available on Silverado, Trail Boss and ZR2. It is a cabin equipment choice rather than a towing feature. High Country also includes the 11.5-inch passenger screen and premium suspension, giving that trim several comfort features as part of its standard equipment.
How many camera views does the Silverado offer?
Available equipment provides up to 19 views using up to 11 cameras. Some views require an accessory camera and installation, and not every trailer supports every function. Hitch Guidance with Hitch View is included on Custom, while other camera and trailering choices follow the truck's equipment.
What standard parking and braking aids are included?
Chevrolet's standard suite includes Front and Rear Park Assist, Reverse Automatic Braking, Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking and Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking. Adaptive Cruise Control is also included in the published standard equipment. These systems have operating limits and support, rather than replace, the driver's attention and control.
Trim Details
What wheel size is included with Custom?
Custom includes 20-inch Technical Gray machine-faced wheels. Its other equipment includes dual exhaust, a power driver's seat and 120-volt power outlets in the cabin and bed. It starts at $43,600 MSRP before destination and options, providing a different equipment group from the WT work-focused starting point.
What size tires come on Trail Boss?
Trail Boss has 34-inch mud-terrain tires on 18-inch Dark Android wheels, together with a two-inch factory lift. Custom Trail Boss shares the lift and tire size. Trail Boss adds front buckets, the Multi-Flex console and Bose eight-speaker audio as part of its more equipped cabin.
Does ZR2 have electronic locking differentials?
Yes. ZR2 includes electronic locking differentials at the front and rear, alongside Multimatic DSSV dampers with jounce shocks and 35-inch mud-terrain tires. It starts with the Duramax diesel and offers the 6.6L V8. Those features distinguish its chassis package from the other lifted Silverado trims.
What distinguishes the High Country wheels and suspension?
High Country includes 22-inch After Midnight machine-faced wheels and a premium suspension with semi-active damping. Its standard engine is the 5.7L V8. A panoramic roof and passenger screen are also standard, giving the trim a premium cabin and road-oriented comfort equipment as well as its exterior finish.
What is included in the Silverado 4WD Z71 package?
Skid plates, hill descent control and off-road suspension are part of the standard Z71 equipment on Silverado 4WD. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are also part of the Silverado trim. The package is separate from the two-inch lift supplied by Custom Trail Boss and Trail Boss.
Service and Ownership
How often are the Silverado's tires rotated?
The 2027 manual calls for tire rotation and required services every 7,500 miles. Oil service follows the oil-life monitor and must occur at least annually. The service visit also includes inspection work, so the rotation interval is a recurring maintenance milestone even when the oil reminder follows a different mileage.
How much oil does the TurboMax take with its filter?
The approximate service-fill capacity is 6.0 US quarts with the filter. The specified oil is dexos1 SAE 0W-30 for the 2027 gasoline engine. The 5.7L and 6.6L V8s use the same gasoline oil specification but have an approximate 8.0-quart capacity with filter.
When does the cabin air filter have a scheduled replacement?
The normal schedule calls for replacement at 22,500 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first. Dust, heavy traffic and reduced airflow can call for earlier replacement. The first covered maintenance visit excludes air filters, so its oil change, inspection and rotation are a separate program from this filter interval.
Is trailer use part of the severe-service schedule?
Frequent towing is a severe-service category, along with hilly or mountainous terrain and other specified operating conditions. The severe schedule includes automatic transmission fluid and filter work at 45,000 miles and four-wheel-drive transfer-case fluid at 50,000 miles. Those intervals are relevant to regular trailer use around Reading.
What does Chevrolet's basic limited warranty cover?
It covers qualifying defects in materials and workmanship for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first, under the warranty's terms. Routine maintenance is excluded. Powertrain coverage has separate engine-specific terms, and the first covered maintenance visit is a distinct program with a first-year delivery limit and other restrictions.
