The new Silverado 1500 will also showcase a total digital overhaul. Analog layouts have been completely eliminated on the upper trims, which will now feature over 60 inches of combined digital screens for front and rear occupants.

  • 16.3-inch Center Screen: Class-leading display centered on the dashboard, standard across the lineup, running a next-generation OS with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
  • 12.2-inch Digital Gauge Cluster: Standard digital instrument panel handling navigation and mechanical readouts.
  • 11.5-inch Front Passenger Screen: A segment first, letting the front passenger view media and navigation, hidden from the driver by a filtered glass shield to prevent distraction.
  • 15-inch Head-Up Display: Available on upper trims, projecting speed and navigation directly onto the windshield.
  • 5.3-inch Rear Climate & Media Screen: Positioned on the back of the center console, letting rear passengers control their own environment.
  • Super Cruise with Trailering: GM's hands-free driving system expands its highway coverage for 2027 and remains the only system in its segment offering hands-free driving while towing a trailer.

Design & Style Enhancements

The new Silverado also moves to the upgraded T1-2 platform. Every piece of exterior sheet metal has been reshaped for better aerodynamics. The front fascia will now have a "high-brow" design style, with the main LED headlight assemblies positioned lower. Horizontal daytime running lights have been installed flush with the grille line.

You'll be able to customize your new Silverado across three cab styles, three bed lengths, and seven distinct trim levels.
