2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Model Review - Evansville, IN

What's New for the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?

Few changes mark the 2026 model year. The key revision is renaming the Realtree Special Edition to the Realtree Appearance Package. You'll also notice more collaborative branding details on multiple trims. Exterior options now include pearl, slate gray, and the familiar color lineup.

What Trims and Features Does the 2026 Silverado Have?

This year's Silverado offers eight trims, with the Work Truck as your entry point and the High Country at the top. The LT remains the sweet spot for most buyers. Those on a tighter budget will appreciate the Custom's added value over the basic Work Truck. For a sportier look, the RST delivers, and the Custom Trail Boss caters to off-road fans without a hefty price increase. The LT Trail Boss steps up for maximum off-road performance, and the LTZ provides a blend of luxury and practicality.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2026 Silverado Have?

Your horsepower depends on engine selection. The standard 3.0-liter diesel delivers about 277 hp, while the optional 6.2-liter V-8 offers a robust 420 hp. If you frequently venture off the beaten path, you may prefer the V-8's higher output.

What Safety Features Does the 2026 Silverado Have?

Standard safety tech includes forward collision braking and cross-traffic alert. The High Country trim elevates safety with Super Cruise for hands-free operation, even with a trailer attached. Trailer camera views and other towing features ensure you stay in control whenever you're hauling.
