2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

2025 Chevrolet
Silverado 1500

General Motors’ best-selling vehicle, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, returned for 2025 with additional standard equipment across the trim range. Most significantly, the Work Truck trim now has standard cruise control, making this entry-level edition more highway-friendly. At the same time, towing is easier with a trailer brake controller included with the LT and higher grades. Chevy also upgraded the trail-friendly ZR2 edition with premium audio and parking sensors, which were previously available as options.


Chevrolet has maintained the Silverado's versatile character for 2025, with the full-sized pickup balancing work-site capability, everyday practicality, and available premium features. Reinforcing the Silverado 1500’s appeal is a highly configurable platform with numerous combinations of cab styles, bed lengths, powertrains, and equipment packages to create a truck tailored to every buyer.
