2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Silverado 1500’s trimline provides options for the utilitarian, the off-road enthusiast, and those who want the top tier of luxury. The WT (Work Truck) sets the standard with a no-frills approach, designed for reliability and durability. The Custom and LT trims add a bit more flair, featuring enhanced exterior accents, LED lighting, and a more modern design, while the Trail Boss variants of these models add off-road capability with recovery hooks, all-terrain tires, and a factory lift. The RST trim takes a sportier approach with high-gloss black wheels and blacked-out accents. The LTZ trim bridges the gap into luxury vehicles with premium materials and advanced technology, paving the way for the lavish, top-of-the-range High Country trim. It offers unmatched refinement, combining high-end features like power-deployable assist steps and exclusive design elements such as its unique bronze-finished accents and grille, which exude elegance. But the top of the food chain belongs to the off-road beast, the ZR2. This trim delivers a performance-oriented setup that excels in extreme conditions, featuring 33” MT tires, an off-road cut bumper, burly skid plates, and heavy-duty mechanics for the ultimate in off-road capability.
