2027 Silverado 2500 HD Trim Lineup at a Glance

Base MSRP excludes destination, tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment. The gas V8 produces 412 hp and 472 lb-ft; the available diesel supplies 555 hp and 1,230 lb-ft. Engine and package choices affect the final purchase price independently of trim.

Trim-by-Trim Breakdown

WT: Working Equipment from $47,200

WT puts the work controls first. Its 7-inch touchscreen supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. A 40/20/40 front bench, rubberized-vinyl flooring, two USB ports and power windows and locks serve a truck used throughout the day. The integrated trailer brake controller is standard. CornerStep and BedStep access support loading, with 12 cargo tie-downs in the bed. WT offers 2WD or 4WD and the 6.6L gas or available 8.3L diesel powertrain.

Custom: Utility and Style from $50,500

Custom gives buyers a style-focused truck while keeping a choice of 2WD or 4WD. Its available Trail Boss package combines Z71 suspension, BFGoodrich all-terrain tires on 20-inch wheels, a two-speed Autotrac transfer case and a Z71 skid plate. The package supports a truck that travels onto rough private-property access roads as well as pavement. Custom remains one of the six trims, with gas or available diesel power and an Allison 10-speed automatic.

LT: Everyday Versatility from $53,900

LT is a 4WD choice for buyers combining work and passenger use. The 6.6L gasoline engine gives it 412 hp, and the available 8.3L Duramax supplies 1,230 lb-ft of torque. Both use the Allison automatic. Silverado HD offers available large-screen technology and trailer-camera equipment; the exact selected package determines what is fitted. The cab and bed remain separate truck choices, with capacities tied to the body and engine rather than the LT badge.

LTZ: Premium Truck Direction from $64,900

LTZ carries 4WD and a premium equipment direction within the HD lineup. Buyers retain the 412-hp gas V8 or available 555-hp diesel, plus the Allison 10-speed automatic. Available trailering technology includes camera views, an in-vehicle app and Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert. A diesel LTZ brings the same engine output as another diesel trim; its cabin and selected equipment are the reasons for the higher trim level. Body and hitch equipment determine its trailering rating.

ZR2: Factory Off-Road Hardware from $74,900

ZR2’s 4WD chassis has a 1.5-inch factory lift and Multimatic DSSV dampers. The rear electronic locking differential, 35-inch mud-terrain tires and aluminum skid plates support low-speed progress on rough ground. Terrain Mode coordinates off-road operation. Either engine is offered with this off-road model. This trim has a specific off-road suspension and tire setup; the general Crew Cab maximum tow rating is not automatically its individual rating.

High Country: Luxury Direction from $75,400

High Country is the luxury-focused 4WD trim. It combines that cabin direction with the choice of a 6.6L gasoline V8 or available 8.3L Duramax and an Allison 10-speed automatic. Buyers have access to the HD family’s available trailer-support and connected-cabin equipment. A premium interior and an engine’s towing output answer separate needs: the trailer rating still follows cab, bed, drivetrain and required equipment. Our inventory shows the equipment and selling price of individual trucks.

Common Equipment and Package Choices

The available Multi-Flex tailgate adds flexible access at the back of the truck. Up to 14 available camera views support trailering, while the 13.4-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch Driver Information Center are available cabin displays. These options require the appropriate truck equipment. The specifications page separates cab sizes, wheelbases and engine figures from trim positioning.

Value Verdict for Reading Truck Buyers

WT is a direct fit for buyers prioritizing work surfaces and a lower entry price. Custom supports a style-focused purchase with an available off-road package. ZR2 is the clear choice for its factory DSSV suspension, lift and locker. High Country serves buyers seeking the luxury trim. For Pottsville hauling or Blue Marsh Lake recreation, the engine and trailer equipment remain part of that purchase.

Which Trim Is Right for You?

A truck regularly carrying a crew has different cab needs from one used mainly for supplies. Double Cab and Crew Cab offer up to six seats; Regular Cab seats up to three. For Reading and Greater Reading buyers traveling Route 61 or US Route 222, Silverado 2500 HD inventory includes the body, equipment and price details for each available truck.

Trim FAQs

Which trims offer a 2WD Silverado 2500 HD?

WT and Custom offer 2WD as well as 4WD in GM’s 2027 HD lineup. LT, LTZ, ZR2 and High Country are listed with 4WD. The engine selection remains separate, with a 6.6L gas V8 and available 8.3L Duramax supported by an Allison 10-speed automatic.

Is Trail Boss an additional HD trim?

No. Chevrolet offers Trail Boss as a package on Custom, keeping the six named trim levels intact. It groups off-road suspension, tire, transfer-case and underbody equipment on that model. ZR2 remains a separate trim with its own specialized chassis hardware rather than another name for Trail Boss.

What is included in WT’s work-focused interior?

WT includes a 40/20/40 front bench, rubberized-vinyl flooring and a 7-inch touchscreen with wireless smartphone compatibility. Power windows, power locks and two USB ports support everyday use. Double Cab and Crew Cab add a folding rear bench, giving work crews another place for passengers or interior storage.

How much is the diesel engine option on the Silverado 2500 HD?

The available 8.3L Duramax option is priced at $11,400 before the truck’s other selected equipment and applicable charges. It delivers 555 hp and 1,230 lb-ft through an Allison 10-speed automatic. The engine choice adds diesel exhaust-braking capability for regular heavy-trailer use.

Which HD model has Multimatic DSSV dampers?

ZR2 is the HD trim equipped with those dampers. They belong to its specialized off-road chassis, alongside Terrain Mode and underbody protection. The trim’s starting base MSRP is $74,900 before destination and other charges; its optional diesel engine adds a separate cost to the selected configuration.
