2026 Chevrolet Silverado HD

2026 Chevrolet
Silverado HD

The Silverado HD 2500 and 3500 have long stood out for their capability and versatility. As Chevy’s three-quarter- and one-ton trucks, they take on the biggest tasks, both professional and recreational, with a variety of trim packages for the buyer’s preferred level of amenities. These stalwart trucks can be utilitarian or luxurious, with the potential to tailor their equipment to niche jobs and needs.


There are a few improvements for model year 2026, with some expansions to various trims’ standard features. The mid-range LT now has second-row USB ports, while the ZR2 gains a six-function Multi-Flex Tailgate and gets the previously optional Technology Package (a digital rearview mirror and a 15-inch head-up display) as a standard feature. The top-of-the-line High Country now shows off updated 20-inch wheels with a bright finish, while Polar White Tricoat and White Sands join the exterior color palette across the lineup. Changes aside, the Silverado HD still boasts best-in-class 83.5 cubic feet of cargo volume and a segment-leading Crew Cab tow rating of 22,070 pounds.
