Four Choices That Decide Your Truck
Four choices decide which 2500 HD fits your work.
| What you choose | Your options | What it changes for you |
|---|---|---|
| Trim | Work Truck, Custom, LT, LTZ, ZR2 or High Country | The launch price, the cabin and the technology |
| Engine | 6.6-liter gas V8 or 6.6-liter Duramax turbo-diesel V8 | How much you can tow and how much pulling power you have |
| Cab and bed | Regular Cab with the Long Bed only; Double Cab or Crew Cab with the Standard Bed or Long Bed | How many people ride with you, how much the bed holds and which tow rating applies |
| Drive | 2WD or 4WD | A few tow ratings differ between 2WD and 4WD builds |
Silverado 2500 HD Trims and Launch Prices
The 2500 HD launched in 6 trims, and each step up builds on a lower trim, though not always the one just before it. The ZR2 builds on the LT, and the High Country builds on the LTZ.
| Trim | MSRP at Launch | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| Work Truck (WT) | $45,900 | The starting trim, with Chevrolet Infotainment 3 on a 7-inch HD touchscreen, Bluetooth, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility |
| Custom | $49,200 | Over the Work Truck: color-keyed carpeting, deep-tinted glass, and high-gloss Black front and rear bumpers |
| LT | $52,600 | Over the Custom: Chevrolet Infotainment 3 Premium with a 13.4-inch HD touchscreen and a 12.3-inch Driver Information Center, Keyless Open and Start, a wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, 120-volt power outlets in the cab and bed, and rear charge-only USB ports on Double Cab and Crew Cab |
| LTZ | $63,300 | Over the LT: a leather-appointed bench with 10-way power front seats and driver memory, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, remote start, dual-zone automatic climate control, power vertical trailering mirrors, and Hitch Guidance with Hitch View and the In-Vehicle Trailering App |
| ZR2 | $73,200 | Over the LT: off-road hardware, heated and ventilated front bucket seats, heated rear outboard seats, Bose audio, the Technology Package, the Multi-Flex Tailgate and a spray-on bedliner |
| High Country | $73,600 | Over the LTZ: heated and ventilated front bucket seats, heated rear outboard seats, Bose audio, 20-inch bright-finish aluminum wheels, a spray-on bedliner and LED cargo-area lighting |
MSRP at launch (2026 model year). Current pricing varies by configuration and program.
Which Trim Fits Your Work
The right 2500 HD trim is the lowest one with the features you will use every day, because the launch price climbs quickly past the LT. The Work Truck fits a truck bought mainly for work, where price comes first, and it still has wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The Custom, $3,300 above the Work Truck at launch, adds a more finished look with color-keyed carpeting, deep-tinted glass and high-gloss Black bumpers. The LT, $3,400 above the Custom at launch, suits a truck that also handles everyday driving. It adds the larger touchscreen, Keyless Open and Start, and 120-volt power outlets in the cab and bed.
The LTZ, $10,700 above the LT at launch, suits drivers who tow often and spend long days in the driver seat. For towing, it adds power vertical trailering mirrors, plus Hitch Guidance with Hitch View and the In-Vehicle Trailering App. For long days, it adds 10-way power front seats with driver memory. It also adds heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and dual-zone automatic climate control.
The ZR2, $20,600 above the LT at launch, fits a truck that works off the pavement. It has Multimatic DSSV dampers, a 1.5-inch suspension lift and 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires. It also has a rear electronic locking differential and an aluminum front skid plate.
The High Country adds comfort to the LTZ, with ventilated front seats and Bose audio, for $10,300 more at launch. Schedule a test drive when the choice between trims is close, since seats and screens are easier to judge in person.
Gas V8 or Duramax Diesel
The 2500 HD's engine choice comes down to how much you tow: the gas V8 tops out at 16,000 lb of conventional towing, and every higher conventional rating belongs to a Duramax diesel build. Both engines are 6.6-liter V8s, but they make different horsepower and torque.
| Engine | Horsepower | Torque |
|---|---|---|
| 6.6L gas V8 | 401 hp at 5,200 rpm | 464 lb-ft at 4,000 rpm |
| Duramax 6.6L V8 turbo-diesel | 470 hp | 975 lb-ft |
Towing, Payload and Bed Sizes
The 2500 HD tows up to 20,000 lb on a conventional hitch, but only as a Crew Cab with the Duramax diesel and the Max Towing Package. Find the row below that matches the engine, cab, bed and package of the truck you are considering.
| Hitch | Engine | Build | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5th-wheel or gooseneck | Duramax diesel | 2WD Crew Cab, long bed, Max Towing Package | Up to 22,070 lb |
| Conventional | Duramax diesel | Crew Cab, standard or long bed, Max Towing Package | Up to 20,000 lb |
| Conventional | Duramax diesel | Double Cab, long bed, no Max Towing Package | 17,900 lb (2WD) or 17,600 lb (4WD) |
| Conventional | Duramax diesel | Regular Cab, or a standard-bed Double Cab; no Max Towing Package | 14,500 lb |
| Conventional | Gas V8 | Crew Cab with either bed, or a long-bed Double Cab; 2WD or 4WD | 16,000 lb |
| Conventional | Gas V8 | Regular Cab, or a standard-bed Double Cab; 2WD or 4WD | 14,500 lb |
Before you buy a vehicle or use it for trailering, carefully review the Trailering section of the Owner’s Manual.
Cab and bed set the rating as much as the engine does, so a gas Crew Cab is rated above a Duramax Regular Cab without a Max Towing Package.
Payload runs up to 3,689 lb on a 2WD Regular Cab with the gas V8. The label on each truck's door jamb shows what that truck can carry.
The 2500 HD bed comes in 2 lengths.
| Bed | Length at the floor | Cargo volume |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Bed | 82.25 in | 69.5 cu ft |
| Long Bed | 98.27 in | 83.5 cu ft |
On a Double Cab, the Long Bed also raises the tow rating with either engine.
Cabin and Technology by Trim
Inside the 2500 HD, the trim decides the screen, seats, audio and cameras, and packages bring some top-trim features to the LT and LTZ.
- Navigation and Google built-in: Every trim from the LT up has navigation capability and Google built-in compatibility on its touchscreen (a select service plan is required; terms and limitations apply).
- Seats: The Work Truck, Custom, LT and LTZ come with a 40/20/40 front bench (leather-appointed on the LTZ), which seats up to 6 in a Double Cab or Crew Cab. A Regular Cab holds fewer, and so does a truck with front bucket seats. The LT can add front bucket seats on the Double Cab and Crew Cab with the Convenience Package, and the LTZ gets them only in an LTZ package (Convenience, Plus, Premium or Texas Edition).
- Audio: Bose 7-speaker audio is standard on the ZR2 and High Country, and the LTZ can add it with LTZ Convenience Package I. The Work Truck, Custom and LT do not offer it.
- Cameras: Every pickup from the Work Truck through the LTZ has the HD Rear Vision Camera, and choosing the pickup-bed delete removes it. HD Surround Vision with a Bed View Camera is standard on the High Country and ZR2, and the LT and LTZ offer it with the Safety Package, though the LT cannot get it on a Regular Cab or with the pickup-bed delete.
- Technology Package: It adds a Rear Camera Mirror and a 15-inch Head-Up Display, and the ZR2 includes it. The High Country gets it with the High Country Premium Package, the LTZ needs LTZ Convenience Packages I and II plus the Safety Package, and no trim below the LTZ offers it.
- Wireless charging: It comes on the ZR2 and High Country, with the bucket seats on the LT, and with the LTZ Convenience Package on the LTZ. It is not compatible with all phones.
- Driver assistance: Automatic Emergency Braking is standard on every 2500 HD. Adaptive Cruise Control comes standard on the High Country; the ZR2 gets it through its Technology Package, and LTZ Convenience Package II adds it to the LTZ. Both the ZR2 and the High Country also include Front and Rear Park Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert and the Safety Alert Seat. Whether a truck has Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert depends on its trim and package.
Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver's responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Read the vehicle Owner's Manual for important feature limitations and information.

Up to 20,000 lb with a conventional hitch, when a Crew Cab has the Duramax diesel and the Max Towing Package. With a 5th-wheel or gooseneck hitch, a 2WD Crew Cab long bed with that engine and package is rated up to 22,070 lb.
