The 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 is a durable pickup truck with features that make every workday easier. We’re taking a closer look at eight of the best features that set the Silverado 1500 apart from competitors.

1. TurboMax Engine

The Silverado 1500 has a TurboMax engine that delivers 310 horsepower at 5600 rpm and 430 lb.-ft. of torque at 3000 rpm. This engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, giving you the best performance possible.

2. Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System

Inside the Chevy Silverado 1500, there’s a Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system with a 7-inch diagonal color touchscreen. This system includes wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, and Bluetooth audio streaming. Use these features to make hands-free phone calls, listen to your favorite music, or enjoy live sporting events from behind the wheel.

3. Under-Seat Storage

The new Silverado 1500 has a 40/20/40 split-bench front seat with under-seat storage compartments. This is the perfect space to store anything you want close by, but out of sight. Simply lift the seat cushion to reveal a secure cargo area for emergency essentials, work tools, and travel items.

4. Chevy Safety Assist

The Chevy Silverado 1500 has Chevy Safety Assist, a complete assistive driving package that can reduce the risk of accidents. This package includes Front Pedestrian Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and IntelliBeam. These functions use a combination of cameras and radar sensors to monitor your surroundings, alerting you to hazards before an accident happens.

5. Durabed

The Chevy Silverado’s roll-formed high-strength steel Durabed takes on the heaviest, most abrasive cargo with ease. With twelve cargo tie-downs rated at 500 pounds per corner, you can haul large loads without problem.

6. CornerStep Rear Bumper

The Silverado 1500 has a CornerStep rear bumper that provides more stability when climbing in and out of your truck bed. This specially designed bumper has hollow foot inserts located at each corner, allowing you to place your foot inside for added security while accessing cargo.

7. Solar-Absorbing Glass

The Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s solar-absorbing glass maintains a cooler temperature inside your cabin by blocking the sun’s rays from entering. This glass absorbs the sun’s strongest rays, keeping your cabin cool even when you’re parked in direct sunlight.

8. Wi-Fi Hotspot Capability

You can use your smartphone, tablets, and laptops in the Silverado 1500 thanks to the truck’s Wi-Fi hotspot ​capability. Powered by AT&T, this provides internet access for up to ten devices within fifty feet of the truck.
