2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

The 2026 Silverado 1500 comes in a broad range of trims to meet different needs — from work-ready to premium-equipped. Base trims like WT and Custom offer essential utility and capability. Mid-level trims such as LT and RST add more comfort and convenience. For those wanting a balance of ruggedness and capability, trims like LT Trail Boss or off-road–oriented packages provide 4WD, tough suspension components, and utility enhancements. At the top end of the lineup, trims equipped with V8 or diesel engines, premium interiors, advanced trailering options, and luxury touches offer a well-rounded full-size truck for both work and lifestyle demands. Inventory at North Star shows examples of Crew Cab 4WD models with TurboMax engines, 13.4-inch infotainment screens, and modern amenities.

Buyers have a strong menu of powertrain options. The 2.7-liter TurboMax 4-cylinder delivers 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque — a solid entry-level pick that offers a balance of power and efficiency. For those needing more muscle or towing capability, the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 (355 hp / 383 lb-ft) and the 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 (420 hp / 460 lb-ft) remain available. For maximum hauling and towing performance, the 3.0-liter Duramax Turbo-Diesel inline-6 is offered, with 305 hp and a strong 495 lb-ft of torque.

With its varied engine line-up and available 4WD, the 2026 Silverado 1500 adapts to many driving demands. Properly equipped, it boasts a maximum towing capacity of up to 13,300 pounds — ideal for boats, trailers, or heavy loads. The truck’s frame and suspension options support different cab and bed configurations (Regular Cab, Double Cab, Crew Cab; short or standard bed), giving customers flexibility whether they prioritize cargo-bed utility or passenger comfort. Features like a 10-speed automatic (on V8/diesel engines) or 8-speed automatic (on TurboMax) help manage power delivery, towing, and everyday driving smoothly.

Inside, the 2026 Silverado 1500 offers a modern, tech-forward cabin. Available features include a 13.4-inch diagonal touchscreen for infotainment, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, WiFi hotspot capability, and optional premium audio systems — all catering to connectivity and convenience. Higher trims or option packages bring comfort touches like heated seats, dual-zone climate control, remote start, and upgraded upholstery. The truck’s interior layout and configurable seating and storage options make it practical for both work crews and families, blending utility and everyday usability.

Safety and driver-assistance technologies remain a focus. The 2026 Silverado 1500 includes a comprehensive suite of safety aids such as automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, rear-view camera, and stability controls. For customers planning towing or hauling, the Silverado offers advanced trailering tools and available features like integrated trailer brake controller and tow/haul modes — designed to add confidence when towing boats, campers, or trailers.
