2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Model Review - Phoenix, AZ

What's New for the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?

The 2026 model year brings minimal updates. Turning the Realtree Special Edition into the Realtree Appearance Package is the biggest tweak. You'll also find extra Realtree accents on several trims, and new exterior finishes like pearl and slate gray join the existing palette.

What Trims and Features Does the 2026 Silverado Have?

Eight trims are available: beginning with the Work Truck and topping out at the High Country. The LT stands out as the best-value choice. If budget is your priority, the Custom offers more amenities than the base model without breaking the bank. The RST adds a sporty visual package, while the Custom Trail Boss brings off-road enhancements at a modest premium. The LT Trail Boss is the go-to for added off-road prowess, and the LTZ strikes a nice balance of features and comfort.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2026 Silverado Have?

Horsepower varies by engine. The 3.0-liter diesel standard powerplant generates up to 277 hp. The 6.2-liter V-8 produces a commanding 420 hp. Those planning heavy-duty or off-road use may find the V-8's output more than sufficient.

What Safety Features Does the 2026 Silverado Have?

Standard safety gear includes automatic emergency braking and rear cross-traffic detection. On High Country models, Super Cruise offers hands-free driving, even while towing. Trailer camera systems and other towing-specific technologies further simplify hauling tasks.
