On the heels of the newly updated 2027 Ford F-150, a flurry of new information on the next-generation 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has dropped, revealing more about the full-size truck's powertrain, pricing, and features. The latest iteration of the Bow Tie's popular full-size truck gets more expensive across the board, but there's more power and equipment on offer, from the WT base model to the ZR2 at the top of the lineup.2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WTPricing for the entry-level WT begins at $41,395, up $1,700 from last year. Chevrolet packs a lot of value into the 2027 Silverado 1500 as part of that price hike, though.The capable entry-level Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WT trim has historically been a stripper-spec work truck, as its name suggests. That's less true for the 2027 model year. Chevrolet outfits scores of new features that add value and creature comforts to the most basic version of the 2027 Silverado 1500.AdvertisementAdvertisementLED headlights and taillights are standard, as is a new grille design. In the back, there's now a standard trailer hitch. Accordingly, all models receive a trailer brake controller.Chevrolet - MotorTrendChanges are far more substantial inside the cabin with the inclusion of a tilting and telescoping steering wheel with audio controls. The era of tiny screens is over for the WT now that a 12.2-inch digital instrument cluster and a 16.3-inch infotainment display are standard.WT models get a wealth of mechanical upgrades, too. The Silverado 1500's TurboMax 2.7-liter turbocharged I-4 engine now makes 350 hp and 455 lb-ft of torque, up from 310 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque from last year, in all applications. It's now standard with a 10-speed automatic, too, replacing the eight-speed automatic transmission. The new 5.7-liter V-8 is also available on the WT with 402 hp and 428 lb-ft of torque, replacing the old 5.3-liter V-8 and its 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque. Chevy's Duramax 3.0-liter turbodiesel I-6 is now available, as well, adding more configurability to the bottom of the Silverado lineup.The Silverado 1500 WT's roster of standard driver assists serves as the foundation for the rest of the lineup. All Silverado 1500 pickups get rear cross-traffic braking, front and rear parking sensors, a vibrating driver's seat for hazard alerts, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, upgraded automatic emergency braking, reverse automatic braking, blind-spot monitoring with trailering assistance, intersection automatic emergency braking, and GM's OnStar One.2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 CustomBuilding on the WT trim, the Custom model benefits from the same basic upgrades as the entry-level 2027 Silverado 1500. The Custom trim is positioned as a daily driver, with standard features reflecting its purpose as a street-oriented pickup. Pricing goes up by $3,995 for 2027, now up to $46,395.ChevroletNew standard equipment includes 20-inch wheels with gray machined faces and black exterior badging.

In the cabin, there's an eight-way power driver's seat, carpeted floors, a rear window defogger, and vinyl floormats. Custom models get remote start as standard equipment, as well.2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Z71Chevrolet replaces the former LT trim with a model that's simply called Silverado, though it comes standard with the formerly optional off-road Z71 package.

Those items include hill descent control, off-road chassis upgrades, and skidplates. The standard tow hitch becomes easier to use with guidance assistance and a camera view.2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Custom Trail BossFor even more off-road capability, there's the 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Custom Trail Boss, which carries a higher price tag in accordance with the extra equipment it receives over the Z71. This trim starts at $57,195, making it $2,505 cheaper than the LT Trail Boss it replaces.Chevy outfits the Custom Trail Boss with 18-inch wheels with 34-inch MT tires.

Other hardware includes a two-speed transfer case, hill descent control, off-road drive modes, a 2.0-inch suspension lift, monotube shocks, aluminum steering gear, and a transfer case skidplate. Chevy's off-road app gives you the software assistance needed for navigating the trail.Chevrolet - MotorTrend2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Trail BossDropping the "Custom" portion of its name, the Silverado 1500 Trail Boss trim is the flashier and more premium off-road version of Chevy's full-size pickup truck.

The ZR2 starts at $79,995, $8,195 more than last year's price. For that money, you get a wealth of new equipment.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe 2027 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 is equipped with the 3.0-liter turbodiesel engine as standard equipment and can also be had with the new 6.6-liter V-8. Chevy does not offer the 5.7-liter V-8 with this trim.It gets new 18-inch diamond-cut matte metallic wheels with 35-inch MT tires.

Chevy debosses the ZR2 logo into the headrests and outfits a flat-bottom steering wheel. Forged carbon-fiber accents imbue the cabin with a sporty look. Massaging front seats with power bolsters tend to your sore back after a day of thumping rocks on the trail. Camera views for underbody visibility while maneuvering around obstacles off-road and an interior camera add to the ZR2's tech. Like the High Country, ZR2 trucks get the passenger-side screen and Super Cruise highway driving assistance.AdvertisementAdvertisementYou can also get the Silverado 1500 ZR2 with the Bison package, adding additional armor beneath the pickup, 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels, front and rear bumpers from AEV, and rocker protection.While nearly every trim is pricier than its prior-generation equivalent, the tech and engine upgrades Chevy has introduced more than make up for the differential in cost.
