According to Motor Trend, "In the heavy-duty truck world capability is most important." And Silverado HD is very capable in the all the areas that matter to Chevy owners. We engineered the 2011 Silverado 2500HD with durable, advanced technologies like a stronger powertrain for bigger towing numbers, a sturdier frame to handle more payload and deliver an improved ride, and more secure trailering features to help keep it all under control. With everything Silverado 2500HD has going for it, you can understand why Motor Trend said, "No wonder it's this year's Truck of the Year."

We looked at everything that made the proven, available Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 engine great, then we made it even better:
  • More maximum hp and torque - 397 horses and 765 lb.-ft. of torque. (Our standard workhorse, the Vortec 6.0L V8 gas engine, generates 360 HP and 380 lb.-ft. of torque.)
  • Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD has 17,800 lbs. (4,6) of maximum towing
  • We changed the look with bold updates to the hood, grille, and front bumper.
Everyone needs a place where they can feel comfortable. Heated, leather-appointed front bucket seats on LTZ feature dual-density foam in the cushions

Our all-new chassis features a high-strength, fully-boxed steel frame that's 5 times torsionally stiffer than before and lets Silverado 2500HD shoulder up to 4,192 lbs. of payload.

The suspension got a complete redesign with bigger, stronger components engineered to handle increased loads and improve ride quality over the previous generation. The fully boxed frame and all-new front and rear suspensions are the biggest reasons for the huge increases in Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings:
  • Massive components include three-inch wide rear leaf springs and precision-forged upper control arms
  • The new independent front suspension allows each front wheel to react independently to rough terrain, helping keep each wheel in a vertical position and more firmly planted on the road
  • To better manage larger capacities, the steering knuckle is taller and 66% heavier than before
  • The rear suspension includes 20% wider leaf springs with an asymmetric design that reduces wheel hop on acceleration and better handles increased payloads
Silverado 2500HD offers the available, durable heavy-duty Allison® six-speed transmission, plus a number of other components that give you confidence when you're towing or hauling a heavy load:
  • New Exhaust Braking System: Included with the Duramax Diesel, it uses the technology of a variable vane geometry turbo to create back pressure to slow the vehicle down. That means reduced brake fade, prolonged brake life, and more confidence on steep grades.
  • Triler Sway Control: Working in conjunction with StabiliTrak, the Trailer Sway Control feature senses trailer sway and automatically applies the truck's brakes to help reduce sway and help maintain control.
  • Hill Start Assist: On uphill inclines greater than a 5% grade, Hill Start Assist automatically engages to hold the truck stationary for about a second after the brake is released. This gives the driver time to accelerate before the truck can roll backward.
  • Auto Grade Braking: It automatically downshifts the transmission to help slow the truck when you apply the brakes while descending long, steep grades
  • Bigger Stronger Brakes: Everything about the brakes has been improved. Larger rotors and calipers improve brake pedal feel and result in shorter pedal travel. With Intelligent Brake Assist, the calipers are preloaded. So when the system senses a panic-braking situation, the brakes can be fully applied more quickly.
