Eight Outstanding Trim Levels
For 2022, Chevy rolls out eight well-equipped models of the Silverado that will appeal to a wide range of buyers. The base model Work Truck starts the bidding with a price of $33,995. It’s followed by the Custom ($40,995), LT ($45,045), Trail Boss ($48,895), RST($49,245), LTZ ($55,495), High Country ($60,595), and ZR2 ($69,245). You’ll find more perks added as you work your way up the list but make no mistake, all models offer an array of standard features.
True Chevy Power
The Silverado comes available with four capable engines that are built to deliver. Chevy defies the old way of building trucks and offers a turbocharged four-cylinder base engine that delivers an impressive 420 pound-feet of torque. Two V8 options pack 335 hp (5.3-liter) and 420 hp (6.2-liter), while a smooth and quiet Duramax diesel engine rounds out the pack.
Superb Handling
In the past, “agile” was not commonly a word used to describe the way a pickup truck handled but Chevy decided it was time to put an end to this stigma. The 2022 Silverado remains sturdy around corners and its braking is very responsive. The 2.0-inch lift, improved suspension, and upgraded tires of the Trail Boss will appeal especially to drivers who enjoy tackling rougher terrain with ease.
Tough Jobs Made Easy
At around a half-ton in weight, the 2022 Silverado handles heavy jobs with ease thanks to a towing capability of over 13,000 pounds (13,300 to be exact). This towing capacity is achieved by the 6.3-liter V8 and Diesel versions, however, the 5.3-liter option is still capable of towing an impressive 11,500. Payload capacity will range from 1870 to 2280 pounds depending on the model you select.
Comfort and Luxury
The Silverado provides drivers and passengers with a spacious cabin crafted with high-quality materials throughout. Comfortable and supportive seating ensures long trips are enjoyable and for those looking to splurge a little, the Silverado offers an array of upgrades to customize your pickup truck’s interior.
Plenty of Standard Tech
Looking for top-tier technology in your pickup truck? Chevy has you covered. All trim levels of the 2022 Silverado feature a standard touchscreen infotainment system with Apple Carplay and Android auto. A mobile hotspot is also standard on all models and overall the system is very user-friendly.
