For years, Chevrolet's been known for the most dependable, longest-lasting full-size pickups on the road.** But Chevrolet never stands still in its ongoing commitment to building the most capable and advanced pickup you've ever owned. So for 2009, you can add these claims – the most powerful light and heavy-duty pickup truck engines ever: the newly available 403 hp Vortec 6.2L V8 and the Duramax 6.6L V8 Turbo Diesel that produces an awesome 660 lb.-ft. of torque. Add to that the best V8 fuel efficiency of any full-size pickup, including the new 2009 Silverado Hybrid 2WD, Canada's first two-mode hybrid full-size pickup and the newest addition to Chevrolet's compelling green technology story. The pickups that keep raising the bar. Silverado 1500, 2500HD and 3500HD.
It's a pickup with the work ethic of a Vortec V8 gasoline power, combined with the electric power and revolutionary fuel savings delivered by an electric two-mode hybrid system. And unlike many other hybrid systems, GM's award-winning system*** uses torque-based inputs to continuously determine the optimal propulsion configuration. The result is impressive fuel savings without giving up full-size capability.
Dependability has set Silverado apart for years. Now we can add initial quality to Silverado's list of accolades. Silverado was named Highest Ranked Large Pickup in Initial Quality in the U.S. in the prestigious J.D. Power and Associates 2008 Initial Quality Study SM. 1 Quality and dependability – two fundamental characteristics that separate Chevy Silverado from other pickups.
ctive Fuel Management® technology on both the Vortec 5.3L and 6.0L V8 engines shuts down four of eight cylinders in low-demand situations, to boost fuel efficiency. But if you're looking for an even more fuel efficient drive, get behind the wheel of the new 2009 Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid - it's the most fuel efficient full-size pickup3 on the road.
You can take reassurance from the fact that Silverado 1500 earned the highest possible U.S. government frontal and side-impact crash test safety ratings. 2 Silverado also helps you avoid an incident before it occurs with a series of enhanced driver control features, including the StabiliTrak™ electronic stability control system with Proactive Roll Avoidance that's standard on all V8-equipped models.
Silverado is purpose-built to handle the rigours of towing. In fact, the Silverado Crew Cab with the available MAX Trailering Package delivers impressive half-ton maximum towing and payload capacity. It's what happens when you put 91 years of truck-building expertise to work for you.
