The Headline

An All-New Silverado 1500

Chevrolet has revealed the next-generation 2027 Silverado 1500, calling it the most powerful and advanced Silverado ever built. Shaped by more than 100 years of truck expertise, the new Silverado is redesigned inside and out while keeping the V8 performance and dependability Chevy truck owners have trusted for generations. Here is what stands out from the reveal.

Two All-New V8s

Next-generation 5.7L and 6.6L V8 engines, now official at 402 and 481 horsepower. The 6.6L is the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in its class, and the 5.7L delivers best-in-class max towing of 13,700 pounds.

Seven-Trim Lineup

A simplified, easier-to-shop range from the fleet-ready Work Truck to the flagship High Country, with three factory-lifted off-road trims for the first time.

Digital Interior

A standard 16.3-inch center display and 12.2-inch driver display anchor a modern cockpit that still keeps the physical buttons and knobs drivers use every day.

Bolder Design

An all-new exterior with new LED headlights and taillights, a more planted stance, and more monochromatic, premium styling across the lineup.

Exterior Design

New From Grille To Tailgate

The 2027 Silverado introduces an all-new exterior with a bolder, more commanding stance and a more premium, monochromatic look. Chevrolet describes the design as a thoughtful evolution: unmistakably Silverado, but stronger and more modern at first glance.

New Lighting Signatures

New signature LED headlamps with a walk-up animation and full LED taillamps, supported by a black tailgate applique and a redesigned third brake light for added visibility.

Refined Aerodynamics

A cleaner, flush sliding rear window and a new spoiler give the truck a more refined, integrated look while improving aerodynamics. The spoiler also incorporates an integrated OnStar antenna.

Standard Dual Exhaust

Dual exhaust tips are standard on Custom and above, reinforcing a more refined yet authentically capable presence.

Wider, Tougher Stance

More pronounced wheel-opening moldings and rocker treatments, plus a bold new front fascia and grille, give the truck a wider on-road look and trim-specific character.

Powertrain

Four Engines. One Silverado.

The numbers are official. On September 17, 2026, GM released full output and capability figures for the 2027 Silverado 1500's four-engine lineup, led by two all-new sixth-generation Small Block V8s. Every engine is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, and the 6.6L V8 is the most powerful engine ever offered in a Silverado. Fuel economy ratings are still to come.

All-New 5.7L V8

Best-In-Class Max Towing

The return of the 350 cubic inch. Steps in for the outgoing 5.3L with more displacement, higher compression, and a dual-fuel injection system. Paired with the Max Trailering Package, it gives the Silverado 1500 the highest available tow rating of any light-duty truck in the segment.

All-New 6.6L V8

Most Powerful Silverado Ever

The 400 cubic inch is back. Replacing the 6.2L, the new 6.6L is the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in its class, built on the same 4.40-inch bore spacing every Small Block has shared since 1955. This is the engine for buyers who want the most power a Silverado has ever offered.

9,700LBMax Towing

Enhanced 2.7L TurboMax

Best-In-Class Standard Torque

The standard engine gains 40 horsepower and 25 lb-ft of torque over the outgoing TurboMax, thanks to a new turbocharger, upgraded fuel injection, improved thermal management, and redesigned pistons. Now on the 10-speed automatic for smoother shifts and stronger towing. It also carries the highest payload rating in the lineup.

350HPHorsepower
455LB-FTTorque
9,400LBMax Towing

Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel

Class-Exclusive Diesel

The only diesel in the half-ton class returns with smooth, quiet operation and strong low-end torque for towing and long-distance driving. Paired with the new available 34-gallon tank, GM estimates a highway range of more than 900 miles. Durability updates include a next-generation NOx sensor and revised pistons, turbo vanes, sealing, and injectors.

305HPHorsepower
495LB-FTTorque
12,000LBMax Towing
1,870LBMax Payload

Standard Across The Lineup: 10-Speed Automatic

Every 2027 Silverado 1500 engine, from the TurboMax to the 6.6L V8, is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission for 2027.

New 34-Gallon Tank: 900+ Mile Diesel Range

A new 34-gallon extended-range fuel tank is available on the 5.7L and 6.6L V8s and the Duramax diesel. On the diesel, GM estimates more than 900 miles of highway driving between fill-ups.

Inside The Sixth-Generation Small Block

350 & 400 Cubic Inches Return

GM stretched the piston stroke 6 mm to grow the 5.3L and 6.2L into the 5.7L (350 cu in) and 6.6L (400 cu in), bringing two legendary Small Block displacements back to the Silverado.

More Air, More Compression

A higher compression ratio, larger throttle bodies, and new intake manifolds with tuned runners let the new V8s make more power from every combustion cycle.

Dual-Fuel Injection

Direct injection and port fuel injection work together, letting the engine operate in its best power, efficiency, and emissions windows across more driving conditions.

Built In Flint, Michigan

The first 5.7L and 6.6L V8s are assembled at GM's Flint Engine Operations, backed by more than 70 years of Small Block manufacturing and over 1.5 million miles of planned real-world validation before launch.

"These new V8 engines advance GM's legendary Small Block architecture with greater capability, more advanced technology and the strength of GM's manufacturing footprint behind them. They're engineered to provide truck customers the confidence and performance they expect from a GM V8."

Tom Bishop, Chief Engineer for Small Block Engines, General Motors

Horsepower, torque, towing, and payload figures are official GM ratings released September 17, 2026 for the 2027 Silverado 1500.

Best-in-class and class-exclusive claims: class is half-ton gasoline and diesel pickups, based on latest available competitive data, excluding other GM vehicles.
