Whether you want pure power or high tech, you can find it in the 2022 Silverado’s adaptable features and configurations. Suppose you’re shopping for a new Silverado in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. In that case, our team of knowledgeable representatives at Huffines Chevrolet in Lewisville, Texas, are eager to find you the perfect truck that matches your lifestyle. Read on to learn more about Chevrolet’s latest lineup of Silverado vehicles. The Chevy Silverado is often compared to the Ram 1500; keep reading to find out why!
The 2022 Chevrolet Silverado has nine trim levels: the WT, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, LTZ, High Country, and ZR2. If you want a simple, functional truck that delivers the quality you associate with the Silverado, you might consider the WT. For a bit more style and elegant exterior details, look for the Custom, LT, and LTZ. The Trail Boss, Custom Trail Boss, and ZR2 offer adventure-ready strength to handle any terrain. If you want extra comfort and convenience, the RST might have your desired amenities. For top-of-the-line upgrades, consider the highest trim level, the High Country.
Exterior
Chevrolet has revamped the 2022 lineup of Silverado vehicles with a broader body, complementing the truck’s bold exterior design. Every 2022 Silverado model has an updated grille with lower, more functional headlamps, allowing you to drive with clarity and confidence. Higher trim levels offer more improvements to lighting, like upgraded daytime running lamps, animated turn signals, and responsive sequences that automatically illuminate figures approaching the vehicle. The 2022 Silverado comes in black, Northsky Blue Metallic, Red Hot, Satin Steel Metallic, Iridescent Pearl Tricoat, Cherry Red Tintcoat, Oxford Brown Metallic, Silver Ice Metallic, Shadow Gray Metallic, and Summit White.
Silverado beats its competition in terms of storage capacity in the bed. Bed sizes vary depending on the Cab option you select. If you choose a Regular Cab model, your Silverado has an 8.1-footbed with 89.1 cubic feet of storage. Depending on your cargo needs, you can outfit Crew Cab Silverado trucks with a 5.8-footbed or a 6.6-foot bed. Silverado beds also come with 12 tie-downs to protect your cargo and a motorized, Multi-Flex tailgate to make loading and unloading your truck even easier. All Silverado beds come with a dense steel floor that can withstand the weight of equipment, materials, and other work supplies.
Interior
WT and Custom models have the classic Silverado interior, but you’ll find a new, sleek interior design in all other trim levels, beginning with the LT. The interior on these trims reflects the updated wider exterior to give you more space and control on the road. These trims also include a 13.4-inch infotainment screen, much larger than earlier models of the Silverado, and Google Assistant, an electronic assistant that responds to voice commands. The infotainment systems pair with Android and Apple smartphones.
Opt for the High Country trim for an interior that pairs rugged strength with luxury. The High Country has a high-quality open-pore wood console, comfortable leather seats, and a hands-free Super Cruise for a peaceful driving experience. You can also choose between a black and blue interior on the High Country for an interior that matches your style.
Cab options for the 2022 Silverado begin with the Regular Cab, which offers two doors and bench seating. Opt for the Double cab for the second row of seats and small rear doors. If you need maximum space for family, friends, or cargo, consider the Crew Cab, which has a spacious back seat and large rear doors.
Engine Options
You can choose from the following engines:
- 2.7L Turbo I4: 310 horsepower, 348 lb-ft of torque.
- 5.3L V8: 355 horsepower, 383 lb-ft of torque.
- 6.2L V8: 420 horsepower, 460 lb-ft of torque.
- 3.0L I6: 277 horsepower, 460 lb-ft of torque.
The Turbo I4 and V8 engines run on gasoline, while the 3.0L I6 takes diesel. The smallest engine, the 2.7L Turbo I4, has an 8-speed automatic transmission, but the rest have a 10-speed automatic transmission. All use two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive except for the 6.2L V8, which only uses four-wheel-drive. With the 2.7L Turbo I4, the Silverado can tow up to 9,500 lbs, and towing capacity rises to 11,200 lbs with the 5.3L V8. The largest V8 and the I6 diesel engines are the best options for towing heavy lows, as they can handle up to 13,300 lbs.
The quiet and durable 2.7L Turbo I4 is the truck’s base engine, used on the WT, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LT, LT Trail Boss, and RST. Each trim has a different upgrade availability, but you could replace the Turbo I4 with another engine to meet your needs in most trims. The 5.3L V8 is standard on LTZ and High Country models, and the 6.2L V8 is standard on the off-road powerhouse ZR2.
Safety Features
All 2022 Silverado models come with many safety features to protect you and your passengers in any condition.
