Meet the 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500, a truck that works as hard as it plays with sophisticated technology to make road trips and everyday commutes more enjoyable, as well as off-road versatility, for times when you need to chart a different path.

Performance

For the 2023 edition, the Silverado 2500 gives drivers available four-wheel drive and two powerful engines to choose from. The first engine is a 6.6-liter gas V8 that produces 401 horsepower alongside 964 pound-feet of torque. The other engine is also a 6.6-liter engine, though it’s a turbo-diesel variant that delivers 445 horses and 910 pound-feet of torque, for those who need a bit more strength.

Depending on which engine you go with, there are two different transmissions as well, with a six-speed automatic mated to the gas engine and a 10-speed automatic offered with the turbo-diesel one. Both engines also offer incredible towing capabilities, with the gas engine providing up to 17,310 pounds of hauling strength and the turbo diesel holding an 18,510-pound rating.

Design

This edition also provides multiple cab options and a spacious, luxurious cabin. Seating options include 10-way driver and front passenger seats with both leather trim and lumbar support, heated rear seats, and both a 60/40 split-folding seat in the back and a 40/20/40 configuration with under-seat storage up front.

Outside the vehicle, there’s an accommodating bed that offers best-in-class cargo space, an available power-operated tailgate, and your choice between many distinctive paint colors, such as Sand Dune Metallic, Red Hot, Summit White, and Glacier Blue Metallic.

Technology

Offering full-color entertainment, navigation instructions, and hands-free calling, the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System is an all-in-one solution for making road trips and morning commutes more exciting. The 14-angle camera monitoring system is perfect for connecting a trailer or ensuring that there are no obstacles in your way when driving off-road or through parking lots.

To limit distractions while driving, the 15-inch diagonal Head-Up Display sends important driver alerts and other information to your windshield instead of behind the steering wheel, so you won’t have to glance down to stay informed.

Safety

Many of the Silverado 2500’s safety features are combined with driver-assist technology, like the Adaptive Cruise Control with Trailering feature, which maintains the vehicle and a trailer at a pre-selected speed on highways and only adjusts this to adapt to the flow of traffic.

The IntelliBeam headlamps are also convenient, as they dim your high beams to improve safety when other vehicles are approaching from the opposite direction. If you cross lane markers without using a turn signal, Lane Keep Assist can gently guide the vehicle back to the center of the lane again.

Capable enough to handle the toughest jobs yet comfortable enough to make long drives relaxing, the 2023 Silverado 2500 offers it all. To experience its many other attractive features from the driver’s seat, get in touch with us today at Ed Martin Chevrolet to schedule your test drive.
