2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
For 2020, Silverado will be available with an all-new 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel engine dedicated to efficiency and refinement. Available on LT, RST, LTZ and High Country models, the 3.0L Duramax diesel is best in its diesel segment for horsepower and torque with an SAE-certified 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft, with 95% torque arriving at just 1,250 rpm and peak torque arriving at only 1,500 rpm and sustained to 3,000 rpm.
Chevrolet engineers started with a clean-sheet design and developed an all-new engine that leverages the efficiency and refinement advantages of the inline-six-cylinder architecture and builds in advanced combustion and emissions technologies to optimize performance and efficiency.

Chevy's proven 5.3L V-8 with Dynamic Fuel Management is now available with the 10-speed automatic transmission on certain Silverado trims. This new engine-transmission combination comes standard on the LT Trail Boss and is available on the High Country trim. Pairing the 5.3L V-8 with the 10-speed automatic offers a satisfying driving experience. Closer gear ratios and an overall larger ratio spread enable peak efficiency and a smarter, smoother shift pattern.

New trailering technology, Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera

New for 2020, the Silverado will be available with the expanded towing technologies previously introduced on all-new 2020 Silverado HD.

As a result, both Silverado and Silverado HD are available with a class-leading available 15 unique camera views1 to make trailering more convenient whether pulling a camper or a large cargo trailer. That includes the segment-exclusive transparent trailer feature, which uses the tailgate-mounted camera and an available accessory camera mounted on the rear of the trailer. The resulting display helps drivers to virtually see through the trailer2, assisting them when navigating parking lots, merging into traffic and making tight turns.

Also new for 2020, the Silverado is available with smart trailer technology allowing access to select features of the iN∙Command® Control System from ASA Electronics3 through the myChevrolet mobile app4, either on compatible Android and iOS smartphones or through the in-vehicle trailering app5 on the vehicle's infotainment system via Apple CarPlay6 or Android Auto7 compatibility.

Finally, the Silverado is available with Adaptive Cruise Control – Camera for 2020.The system features a single high-mounted camera behind the rearview mirror that scans the road and uses proprietary software and algorithms to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle ahead. The system can bring the Silverado to a complete stop and is integrated with the stop/start capability of the engines to help optimize efficiency. Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera is available on Silverado LT, LTZ and High Country.
