The wait is nearly over. The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is returning for the 2027 model year.
Almost completely redesigned, it remains the blend of legendary durability, exceptional capability, massive utility, and job-ready features that has made it wildly popular, not just in the full-size, light-duty segment but also among tradespeople and off-roaders here in northeastern Pennsylvania. With all there is to know about the latest pickup, we'll bet you're eager to get the scoop. Here's what the experts at Tom Hesser Chevrolet know so far.
It's a Class-Competitive Towing and Hauling Machine
There's no sugarcoating it: the next iteration of the Silverado 1500 is a workhorse. Two-wheel-drive, double-cab models equipped with the available 402-horsepower, 5.7-liter V8 engine, a standard bed, and a Max Trailering Package can haul up to 2,170 pounds and tow up to 13,700 pounds when properly equipped. Chevy bills that max towing capacity as best-in-class — one to rival the Ram 1500.
We'd agree: the ratings are high enough for handling nearly any job, whether you're carrying a dual-axle bumper-pull trailer or a large boat on a trip out of Wilkes-Barre or transporting commercial tool chests or building and landscaping materials to work here in Scranton, PA.
Customization Options Abound
Even better: construction workers, contractors, electricians, and other occupations can have fun custom-building. Opt for a model with a 350-horsepower, 2.7-liter TurboMax engine, and you can tow up to 9,400 pounds and haul up to 2,340 pounds. Order a new 2027 Silverado 1500 with a highly efficient 305-horsepower Duramax 3.0-liter turbodiesel engine, and those figures rocket to 12,000 pounds and 1,870 pounds, respectively.
Of course, project managers are sure to appreciate the pickup's mobile-office promise, too:
- When its newly available Multi-Flex Center Console isn't storing daily essentials for the duty roster, it folds flat into an ergonomic workspace that sturdily supports a laptop.
- You can expect more than 60 inches of available digital display space combined — and that's edge-to-edge. Its new system interface is reputedly intuitive, simple to use, and quick to respond, for everything from driving and parking to trailering; you'll be able to take advantage of up to 11 available cameras and 19 views.
- A 16.3-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Google Gemini comes standard, and ZR2 and High Country trims incorporate a class-leading 11.5-inch passenger screen. Chevy says the setup surpasses the dual 12-inch system in the Ford F-150. That means whether you're on a family vacation off-trail or transporting work crews between job sites, everyone can expect to stay connected and entertained.
