Chevrolet plans an all-new Silverado 1500 that will mark the start of the next generation, bringing updated architecture and powertrain changes to its light-duty full-size pickup line.
The 2027 chevy silverado 1500 is expected to introduce sixth-generation GM Small Block gasoline engines with an asserted 10 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, as reported by the source, and those engines will be built at the GM Flint Engine Plant following a $579 million investment.
Carryover powertrains for the model are expected to include the 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax and the 2.7L I4 L3B TurboMax gasoline engine, and the range will also add a new plug-in hybrid option, while transmissions listed include eight-speed and ten-speed automatic choices and rear‑wheel or four‑wheel drive layouts.
Silverado HD And MD Carryover, Production And Availability
The Silverado HD range, covering the 2500 HD and 3500 HD, is expected to carry over with only minor changes for the same model period, with a fully redesigned Silverado HD planned for the following model year that will adopt generational improvements from the next Silverado 1500.
The Silverado MD medium duty chassis cab lineup is expected to continue largely unchanged from its prior configurations, with assembly for MD models reported at the Navistar Springfield plant in Springfield, Ohio, while Silverado 1500 assembly locations include GM Fort Wayne in Indiana, GM Silao in Mexico, and GM Oshawa in Canada, and HD models are assembled at GM Flint and Oshawa.
Market availability for the Silverado 1500 is listed for the US, Canada, Mexico, the Middle East, and Brazil, while Silverado HD is expected in the US, Canada, Mexico, and the Middle East, and Silverado MD is listed for the US market; predecessor and successor model years are noted in the source.
