Chevrolet will debut its 2020 Silverado HD trucks in February 2019 as the third Silverado model refresh in just 18 months, including the 2019 Silverado 1500 and medium-duty Silverado 4500/5500/6500 trucks.
Built at the Flint Assembly plant in Flint, Mich., the new Silverado HD's design has a bold, sculpted form that differentiates it from the Silverado 1500, according to GM. The 2020 Silverado HD exterior shares only the roof with the Silverado 1500.
The interior benefits from similar architectural changes made to the 2019 Silverado 1500, which include an additional 3 inches of legroom on crew cab models and a taller, more comfortable seating position.
Chevrolet will offer two new powertrains — a new gasoline engine with direct injection mated to a 6-speed transmission and the Duramax turbo-diesel V-8 that makes 910 lb.-ft. of torque.
The 2020 Silverado HD trucks will offer all-new customer-focused trailering technology, significant increases in towing and payload capabilities and a host of technologies and features designed specifically for heavy-duty truck customers.
The 2020 Silverado HD trucks will go on sale in February.
