Are you looking to upgrade your work truck to the most durable, powerful option on the market? We’re exploring eight standout features that make the 2025 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD a perfect truck for your job.
1. 6.6L V8 Gas Engine
The standard engine on the Silverado 3500 is a 6.6L V8 gas engine that supplies 401 horsepower at 5200 rpm and 464 lb.-ft. of torque at 4000 rpm. This engine features VVT (variable valve timing) and direct injection.
2. 6.6L Duramax Turbo-Diesel Engine
If you need something with more power, you can opt for the available 6.6L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine. This engine provides a maximum towing capacity of 36,000 pounds along with 470 horsepower at 2800 rpm and 975 lb.-ft. of torque at 1600 rpm.
3. Allison 10-Speed Automatic Transmission
Both Silverado 3500 engines are paired with an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission for optimal performance. This transmission is electronically controlled with overdrive and includes Tow/Haul mode for efficient engine performance when trailering.
4. Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System
The Silverado 3500 WT trim comes with a 7-inch Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system that includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, AM/FM radio, and SiriusXM satellite radio compatibility. All higher Silverado 3500 trims have a 13.4-inch Chevrolet Infotainment 3 Premium system with Google built-in for access to Google Maps, Assistant, Play, and more.
5. OnStar Basics
OnStar Basics is a convenient safety package that uses tools like remote commands and live traffic updates to keep you safer on every journey. The Automatic Crash Response feature is a critical tool that can connect you with an emergency advisor when it detects your truck has been involved in a severe accident.
6. Hitch Guidance
The new Silverado 3500 comes with Hitch Guidance as part of its complete trailering package. Hitch Guidance uses a rear vision camera to capture images of your trailer and hitch at all times. During the alignment process, it provides a digital guideline for attaching the trailer to the hitch perfectly.
7. Chevytec Spray-On Bedliner
The available Chevytec spray-on bedliner creates a textured, non-skid surface inside your cargo box that prevents items from sliding around during travel. This bedliner covers the bed’s surface below the side rails, gauge hole plugs, tie-downs, and front bed top rail.
8. Power Up-and-Down Tailgate
The Silverado 3500 High Country trim comes with a power up-and-down tailgate that makes loading and unloading cargo easier than ever. This available tailgate opened in three different ways, including a button on your key fob and an in-cabin button. The third convenient way is by simply lifting the tailgate a few inches before the power feature takes over and closes it the rest of the way!
