Chevrolet Silverado 1500
The Silverado gains an adaptive cruise control system with camera and an expanded list of towing technologies. Maximum towing capacity is now rated at 13,400 pounds—best in the segment. More than half of the models in the lineup are available with the 6.2-litre V8, which produces up to 435 horsepower. However, the biggest update this year is the addition of the 3.0-litre Duramax six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine. This one boasts 277 horsepower and, more importantly, 460 pound-feet of torque.
