2027 Chevy Silverado: Redesign, Engines, Price, Trims and Release Date

The 2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 is a full redesign, the first big one since 2019. Chevy revealed it on June 16, 2026, and production started at GM’s Silao plant in Mexico on October 12, 2026. Trucks should reach dealers before the end of 2026. Prices start at $38,600 for the Work Truck ($41,395 with destination) and go up to $77,200 for the ZR2 ($79,995 with destination). The biggest news is under the hood: two new V8s, a 402 hp 5.7L and a 481 hp 6.6L. Every trim also gets a 12.2-inch digital gauge cluster and a 16.3-inch touchscreen.

The Silverado is America’s second best-selling vehicle, so a new one matters to a lot of buyers. This guide covers everything people search for: what changed, engines and specs, every trim, prices, the interior, colors, the release date, the GMC Sierra twin, and the heavy-duty 2500 and 3500. Anything Chevy hasn’t confirmed yet is clearly marked as expected.

Is the 2027 Chevy Silverado redesigned?

Yes. The 2027 Silverado 1500 is a new generation with a new body, a new cabin, and two new V8 engines. It still rides on GM’s T1 body-on-frame platform. The 2.7L turbo four-cylinder, the 3.0L Duramax diesel, and the six-way Multi-Flex tailgate carry over, but almost everything you see and touch is new.

Chevy calls the new look “new, yet familiar.” Park it next to a 2026 and you’ll still know it’s a Silverado. Look closer and you’ll spot new LED headlights and taillights, a reshaped front fascia, and bulkier wheel openings and rocker panels.

2027 Chevy Silverado changes: what’s new

Here’s a quick rundown of what’s different from the 2026 truck:

• Two new sixth-generation small-block V8s: a 5.7L (402 hp) and a 6.6L (481 hp). They replace the old 5.3L and 6.2L.
• The 2.7L TurboMax is now rated at 350 hp and 455 lb-ft.
• Every engine uses a 10-speed automatic, including on the Work Truck and Custom.
• Every trim gets a 12.2-inch digital cluster and a 16.3-inch center touchscreen.
• An 11.5-inch passenger screen is available, a first for the Silverado.
• The gear selector moves back to the steering column, which frees up space for a new Multi-Flex center console.
• A panoramic sunroof is offered for the first time.
• Super Cruise now works while towing.
• The trim lineup drops from about ten trims to seven. LT, RST, LTZ, and Custom Trail Boss names are reshuffled (details below).
• Reports say the frame switches from a wax coating to a more durable e-coat.
• A 34-gallon extended-range fuel tank is available with the V8s and standard on the ZR2.

2027 Chevy Silverado reveal and launch details

Chevrolet revealed the 2027 Silverado 1500 on June 16, 2026. GM shared the full trim lineup, screens, and styling that day. Engine outputs came later, in September 2026, when the official specs and the dealer order guide were released. Pricing followed in the fall.

The launch is staged. Silao, Mexico started building Crew Cab trucks on October 12, 2026. Regular Cab production is planned for February 8, 2027. Fort Wayne Assembly in Indiana joins in early 2027 and will start building Double Cab trucks around April 12, 2027. So Crew Cabs come first, and the cheaper cab styles arrive months later.

2027 Chevy Silverado Canada debut

Canadian buyers get the same truck at the same time. Chevrolet Canada showed the 2027 Silverado alongside the U.S. reveal, and Canadian deliveries are expected to start in late 2026. Canadian pricing is listed in Canadian dollars and is higher than U.S. prices once you convert.

When will the 2027 Chevy Silverado be available?

The 2027 Silverado 1500 should start arriving at dealers in late 2026, with the first trucks expected in November and December. Crew Cab models come first. Regular Cab and Double Cab versions are marked “late availability” in GM’s order guide, so expect those in spring 2027.

If you’re asking when the 2027 Chevy Silverado comes out in your area, the honest answer is that it depends on the configuration. A Crew Cab High Country or ZR2 will show up first. A Regular Cab Work Truck with a long bed may not be on lots until mid-2027.

2027 Chevy Silverado build week

Build weeks are the production slots GM assigns to each dealer order. The first 2027 Silverado build weeks began the week of October 12, 2026 at Silao. If you placed an order, your dealer can look up your assigned build week. A truck usually reaches the dealer four to eight weeks after it’s built.

2027 Chevy Silverado for sale

You can’t buy a new 2027 Silverado off a lot just yet, but dealers are taking orders and deposits now. The first trucks for sale should appear on dealer websites in November and December 2026. Expect limited stock and little discounting at first. If you want a deal, a leftover 2026 Silverado will be the bargain this winter.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 engine options

The 2027 Silverado 1500 offers four engines. All of them come with a 10-speed automatic.

Towing and payload change with cab, bed, drivetrain, and trim. The 6.6L’s low tow rating looks odd, but that’s because it only comes on the heavy, off-road ZR2 and the fully loaded High Country. Higher figures may follow later in the model year.

2027 Chevy Silverado L4B engine (2.7L TurboMax)

The L4B is GM’s 2.7L turbocharged four-cylinder, called TurboMax. For 2027 it makes 350 hp and 455 lb-ft. It’s the standard engine on the Work Truck, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, Silverado, and Trail Boss. It pairs with the 10-speed automatic everywhere, so the older 8-speed is gone. The engine will reach most trims a bit later in the launch, because GM lists it as late availability.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.7 specs

The new 5.7L V8 (RPO L76) is part of GM’s sixth-generation small-block family. It makes 402 hp and 428 lb-ft of torque and runs on regular 87-octane gas. It’s the best towing engine in the lineup at up to 13,700 lbs. It replaces the old 5.3L V8, and it’s standard on the High Country and optional on the Work Truck, Custom Trail Boss, Silverado, and Trail Boss.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 6.6 specs

The 6.6L V8 (RPO L78) is the new top engine. It makes 481 hp and 501 lb-ft, and GM recommends premium fuel. Chevy says it’s the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in any full-size light-duty pickup. That beats the Ram 1500’s 5.7L Hemi (395 hp) and the Ford F-150’s 5.0L V8 (400 hp). The 6.6L is offered only on the ZR2 and High Country, and only with four-wheel drive. It replaces the old 6.2L V8.

Both new V8s use Dynamic Fuel Management, which can run on eight cylinders, four cylinders, or a rotating mix. A new “V0” mode can shut off all eight cylinders when you coast downhill, saving fuel.

2027 Chevy Silverado new V8 engines and engine rumors

For months, rumors claimed the 5.3L and 6.2L would be replaced by bigger small-blocks. Those rumors turned out true. The leaked displacements, 5.7L and 6.6L, were right, and the official output numbers landed in September 2026. One rumor still floating around is that a higher-towing 6.6L setup will arrive later. GM hasn’t confirmed that.

2027 Chevy Silverado Duramax

The 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel inline-six (RPO LZ0) carries over at 305 hp and 495 lb-ft. It’s the efficiency pick. GM estimates 27 mpg highway with two-wheel drive. With the 34-gallon tank, that’s a highway range of over 900 miles. Max towing is 12,000 lbs. The Duramax is standard on the ZR2 and optional on the Work Truck (Crew Cab only), Custom Trail Boss, Silverado, Trail Boss, and High Country.

2027 Chevy Silverado transmission upgrade

Every 2027 Silverado 1500 now uses a 10-speed automatic. On the 2026 truck, the Work Truck and Custom with the 2.7L used an older 8-speed. The 10-speed gives smoother shifts, better towing manners, and slightly better fuel economy on the base trims. The shifter also moves back to the steering column, which old-school truck owners have been asking for.

2027 Chevy Silverado V8 exhaust note and exhaust updates

Dual exhaust is now standard on the Custom and every trim above it. Early walkaround and drive videos show the new 6.6L has a deeper, louder sound than the old 6.2L, especially at cold start and wide-open throttle. The 5.7L sounds smoother and quieter at cruise. ZR2 and High Country owners who want more noise can expect Chevy accessory and aftermarket cat-back systems once trucks are in owners’ hands.

2027 Chevy Silverado specs and fuel tank

Chevy released the main specs in stages: design and features at the June reveal, then engine specs in September 2026. Here are the key numbers we know so far:

• Max towing: 13,700 lbs (5.7L V8, properly equipped)
• Max payload: 2,340 lbs (2.7L TurboMax)
• Cabs: Regular, Double, and Crew Cab
• Beds: short, standard, and long
• Wheels: 18 to 22 inches
• Fuel economy: no EPA figures yet. Diesel estimate: 27 mpg highway (2WD).

2027 Chevy Silverado extended range tank

A 34-gallon extended-range fuel tank is available with the 5.7L and 6.6L V8s and is standard on the ZR2. A bigger tank means fewer fuel stops on long tows. With the Duramax and the big tank, you’re looking at 900+ miles of highway range. Standard tanks on lower trims are expected to stay around 24 gallons.

2027 Chevy Silverado electrocoated frame

Reports say the 2027 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 move from a wax-coated frame to an electrocoated (e-coated) frame. In e-coating, the whole frame is dipped in a charged paint bath, so the coating reaches every corner and inside hollow sections. That should hold up better against rust and peeling than wax spray. Ford, Ram, and GM’s own Colorado already use e-coat. GM hasn’t promoted this officially, so treat it as reported, not confirmed.

2027 Chevy Silverado trims

The 2027 lineup is simpler. There are seven main trims, plus a fleet-only model:

2027 Chevy Silverado Work Truck

The Work Truck is built for fleets, contractors, and upfitters. It starts at $38,600 and now includes the 10-speed automatic, a 12,000-lb hitch, an integrated trailer brake controller, the 16.3-inch touchscreen, the 12.2-inch digital cluster, LED headlights and taillights, adaptive cruise control, and front and rear park assist. You can add the 5.7L V8 (it requires the WT Convenience Package) or the Duramax (Crew Cab only).

2027 Chevy Silverado WT renders and taillights

Before the reveal, artists made dozens of WT renders based on spy shots. The real truck is plainer than most of them, with a black grille, steel wheels, and a black bumper. The biggest real-world change is the lighting. LED headlights and LED taillights are now standard on the WT, which makes the base truck look much less cheap from behind.

2027 Chevy Silverado accessory switches

Work Truck buyers who add light bars, beacons, or plow lights will want upfitter switches. The 2026 WT offered them, and they’re expected to return on the 2027 WT and Custom as part of an upfitter-ready package. Check the order guide with your dealer, since packages are still being finalized.

2027 Chevy Silverado Custom

The Custom ($43,600) is the value pick for most people. It adds 20-inch wheels, body-color touches, standard dual exhaust, and 34-inch off-road tires. It only comes with the 2.7L TurboMax.

2027 Chevy Silverado LT rendering (now just “Silverado”)

There’s no LT trim name for 2027. The old LT becomes a trim simply called “Silverado,” priced from $47,900. That’s why searches for an “LT rendering” turn up mixed results. The Silverado trim gets an available front bucket-seat setup, available panoramic sunroof, and the Z71 package on 4WD models.

2027 Chevy Silverado Z71

Z71 is now a package on the 4WD Silverado trim, not a separate model. It adds skid plates, an off-road suspension, hill descent control, and Z71 badging. The Silverado Z71 is the sweet spot if you want light off-road ability without the lift and big tires of the Trail Boss.

2027 Chevy Silverado Z71 photos

Official Z71 photos show a black grille with chrome accents, the new slim LED headlights, Z71 badges on the bed sides, and off-road tires on 18- or 20-inch wheels. The truck sits at a stock height, unlike the lifted Trail Boss. Spy photos from summer 2026 matched the production look closely.

2027 Chevy Silverado Trail Boss and Custom Trail Boss

There are now two Trail Boss models. The Custom Trail Boss ($54,400) has a 2.0-inch lift and 34-inch tires on a simpler trim. The Trail Boss ($61,200) adds 34-inch tires, unique exterior styling, Torch Red seatbelts, and fabric seat inserts with a custom perforation pattern. Both can get the 5.7L V8 or the Duramax.

2027 Chevy Silverado ZR2

The ZR2 ($77,200) is the most capable and most expensive Silverado. It gets a 2.0-inch lift, 35-inch mud-terrain tires, front and rear electronic locking differentials, and Multimatic DSSV spool-valve dampers. It also gets underbody cameras, a new Baja drive mode, massaging seats, the 11.5-inch passenger screen, Super Cruise, and the 34-gallon tank as standard. The Duramax is standard, and the 6.6L V8 is optional.

2027 Chevy Silverado ZR2 design

The ZR2 has its own front end, with a taller bumper for better approach angle, red recovery hooks, and a blacked-out grille. Inside, you’ll find Torch Red accents and forged carbon-fiber trim, the first time GM has used that material. A ZR2 Bison, developed with AEV, adds heavy-duty bumpers, rocker protection, skid plates, and 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels.

2027 Chevy Silverado High Country

The High Country ($71,700) is the luxury model. The 5.7L V8 is standard, and the 6.6L and Duramax are optional. It comes with Super Cruise with trailering, three years of OnStar One, a panoramic sunroof, 22-inch machine-faced wheels, the 11.5-inch passenger screen, a power tailgate, Bose audio, and ambient lighting. The cabin gets real wood trim, Tritan Satin accents, and available microfiber suede.

2027 Chevy Silverado LTZ replacement

The LTZ is gone for 2027. If you liked the LTZ’s leather and chrome without High Country money, the closest match is the Silverado trim with leather and premium options added. Your other choice is to stretch to the High Country, which now includes far more standard equipment than before.

2027 Chevy Silverado RST render and 1500 RST

There’s no RST trim in the 2027 Silverado 1500 lineup announced so far. Many pre-reveal renders showed an RST with body-color bumpers, but Chevy folded that sporty street look into appearance options instead. Body-color mirror caps and a body-color tailgate panel are reported options on the Silverado trim and above. A street-style package may return later, but Chevy hasn’t announced one. The “RST SUV” some people search for doesn’t exist either.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 SS

There’s no 2027 Silverado 1500 SS. The SS name is used on the Silverado EV and some Chevy SUVs. With a 481 hp 6.6L V8 now available, fans hope for a street-focused SS truck. For now, the 6.6L only comes on the ZR2 and High Country.

2027 Chevy Silverado premium package

The premium content now comes mostly as standard equipment on the High Country and ZR2. On the Silverado trim, expect a premium or convenience package that adds leather, heated and ventilated seats, the bigger tank, and advanced driver aids. Package names and prices will show up in the online configurator.

2027 Chevy Silverado price

The 2027 Silverado 1500 starts at $38,600 ($41,395 with destination) and tops out at $77,200 for the ZR2 ($79,995 with destination). Fully loaded High Country or ZR2 trucks with every option can pass $90,000, and some dealer-built examples will cross $100,000 with accessories and markup.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 pricing options

Here’s how a few popular builds should price out (expected, with destination):

• Work Truck Crew Cab with 2.7L: about $46,000
• Silverado Z71 4WD Crew Cab with 5.7L V8: about $60,000 to $62,000
• Trail Boss with Duramax: about $67,000 to $69,000
• High Country with 6.6L V8: about $78,000 to $82,000
• ZR2 with 6.6L V8 and options: about $85,000 to $92,000

2027 Chevy Silverado build and price

Chevy’s online configurator lets you build and price the 2027 Silverado. If it still shows the 2026 truck in your area, you can sign up for updates and use the trim prices above to plan your budget. Many dealers can also build a quote from the order guide right now.

2027 Chevy Silverado design

The design is an evolution, not a revolution. The front end has slimmer LED headlights and a new grille that’s different on every trim. The hood, fenders, and bumper are reshaped for a cleaner look. Trims range from the plain WT to the chrome-heavy High Country to the tough-looking ZR2.

2027 Chevy Silverado front fascia

The new front fascia uses a wider grille and LED headlights that sit higher in the face. The Work Truck gets a black grille, the Silverado and Trail Boss use a bolder grille with darker accents, the High Country gets a Tritan Satin grille, and the ZR2 gets a raised bumper for off-roading.

2027 Chevy Silverado wheel moldings

Chevy gave the new truck more pronounced wheel openings and rocker treatments. On off-road trims, the wheel moldings are thicker, black plastic flares that cover bigger tires. On the High Country, the moldings are slimmer and body-colored or chrome-trimmed for a cleaner look.

2027 Chevy Silverado body color tailgate

A black tailgate appliqué is standard on the Silverado, Trail Boss, ZR2, and High Country. Not everyone likes it, so a body-color tailgate panel is expected as an option, along with body-color mirror caps. The six-way Multi-Flex tailgate carries over, and the High Country gets a power tailgate as standard.

2027 Chevy Silverado boot scraper

One clever new feature is an assist step with a built-in boot scraper. It’s a textured step surface you can use to scrape mud off your boots before climbing in. It’s offered from the factory (RPO RY6) on the Custom Trail Boss, Silverado Z71, Trail Boss, and ZR2. It’s not offered on the WT or High Country.

2027 Chevy Silverado roof antenna

Spy shots and early photos show a low-profile shark-fin antenna on the roof. On trucks with Super Cruise, OnStar One, and Google built-in, that antenna handles GPS and cellular data. Some people mistook it for a test mule sensor in early spy photos, but it’s a normal production part.

Is there a 2027 Chevy Silverado square body?

No. The 2027 Silverado doesn’t bring back the classic square-body look from the 1970s and 1980s. The new truck is more upright and boxier than the old one, but it’s a modern design. “Square body” searches mostly come from fan renderings.

2027 Chevy Silverado interior

The new cabin is the biggest change. Every trim gets a 12.2-inch digital driver display and a 16.3-inch center touchscreen. Physical buttons and knobs stay for climate and volume. The shifter moves back to the steering column, freeing room for a new Multi-Flex center console that opens into a flat work surface, handy for a laptop or paperwork.

The Work Truck, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, and Silverado come with a bench seat for six people. Front bucket seats are available on the Silverado and standard on upper trims. The High Country gets real wood, Tritan Satin trim, and available microfiber suede. The ZR2 gets Torch Red accents and forged carbon fiber.

2027 Chevy Silverado digital displays and screen

There are up to three screens:

• 12.2-inch digital instrument cluster (standard)
• 16.3-inch infotainment touchscreen (standard)
• 11.5-inch front passenger screen (standard on High Country and ZR2)

The passenger screen is the Silverado’s first. Your passenger can stream video or set navigation without distracting the driver. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are still standard, and Google built-in is available.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 massaging seats

Massaging front seats are standard on the ZR2 and optional on the High Country’s 12-way power seats. They’re not offered on lower trims. Heated and ventilated seats are available on the Silverado trim and up.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 interior colors

Chevy hasn’t published the full interior color list. Based on the reveal, expect:

• Jet Black cloth or vinyl on WT and Custom
• Jet Black with Torch Red accents and fabric inserts on Trail Boss
• Jet Black with Torch Red and carbon fiber on ZR2
• A light option (likely a tan or gray) and a dark option on High Country
• Jet Black or a gray leather on the Silverado trim

2027 Chevy Silverado interior redesign: is it worth it?

Yes, if screens and space matter to you. The old interior was the 2019 truck’s weakest point. The new one fixes the cheap-plastic feel, adds much bigger screens on every trim, and brings back the column shifter. Owners who hate touchscreens will be happy that climate controls still use real knobs.

2027 Chevy Silverado safety technology

Every 2027 Silverado 1500, even the Work Truck, comes standard with:

• Automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection
• Lane-keep assist and lane-departure warning
• Adaptive cruise control
• Front and rear park assist
• Safety alert seat
• Rear-seat reminder, Buckle to Drive, and Teen Driver

Available features include blind-spot monitoring with trailer coverage, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic reverse braking, a 360-degree camera, a bed camera, hitch guidance, a head-up display, and a rear camera mirror. Super Cruise hands-free driving now works while towing, and it’s standard on the High Country and ZR2. Crash test ratings from the IIHS and NHTSA aren’t out yet.

2027 Chevy Silverado colors

Chevy hasn’t released the full 2027 paint list. Based on the reveal trucks and current GM colors, these 2027 Chevy Silverado paint colors are expected:

• Summit White
• Black
• Sterling Gray Metallic
• Slate Gray Metallic
• Radiant Red Tintcoat
• Lakeshore Blue Metallic
• Iridescent Pearl Tricoat (High Country)
• Sand Dune Metallic (Trail Boss and ZR2)
• A new launch color, still unannounced

Expect 9 to 11 colors in total, with some limited to certain trims. For the 2027 Silverado 1500 colors on the WT, the list will be shorter, usually Summit White, Black, Silver, and Red.

2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 wheel options

Wheels range from 18 to 22 inches. The WT uses 17- or 18-inch steel or aluminum wheels. The Custom gets 20-inch wheels. The Trail Boss and Custom Trail Boss use 18-inch wheels with 34-inch tires. The ZR2 rides on 18-inch wheels with 35-inch mud-terrain tires (beadlock-capable on the Bison). The High Country gets 22-inch machine-faced wheels.

2027 Chevy Silverado photos, spy shots, and renderings

If you’re searching for pictures of the 2027 Chevy Silverado, you’ll find three kinds of images online:

• Spy shots and prototype photos: camouflaged test trucks photographed in 2025 and early 2026. These showed the new headlights and boxier body long before the reveal.
• Fan renders and custom renderings: digital artwork made before the reveal. Many, like popular LT and RST renders, are close but not exact.
• Official photos: Chevy’s own images from the June 16, 2026 reveal. These are the real truck.

2027 Chevy Silverado spied and prototype photos

Prototypes were spotted testing in Michigan and Arizona in heavy camouflage. The spy shots correctly showed the new lighting, the column shifter, and the larger screens. Since the reveal, uncamouflaged Custom trucks have also been spotted on the road and on dealer transport trucks.

2027 Chevy Silverado walkaround video

Walkaround videos from the reveal event and from early dealer deliveries are already on YouTube. Look for ones that show the passenger screen, the Multi-Flex console, the boot-scraper step, and the 6.6L V8’s sound. Those are the biggest real-world differences from the 2026 truck.

2027 Chevy Silverado vs 2027 GMC Sierra

The Silverado and GMC Sierra are twins under the skin. They share the platform, the new 5.7L and 6.6L V8s, the 2.7L TurboMax, the Duramax diesel, and the 10-speed automatic. The differences are mostly style and price:

2027 GMC Sierra and Chevy Silverado screen

Both trucks get a large center touchscreen. The Silverado uses a 16.3-inch screen across all trims plus an available 11.5-inch passenger screen. The Sierra has its own dash layout, with a large screen on upper trims and a passenger display on the Denali models. If screens are your top priority, both trucks are now among the best-equipped pickups for tech.

2027 Chevy Silverado 2500, 2500HD and 3500

The heavy-duty Silverado gets major updates for 2027 too. The 2027 Chevy Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD get new engines, more power, and more towing:

• Standard 6.6L gas V8: 412 hp and 472 lb-ft, up to 19,000 lbs of towing
• Available new 8.3L Duramax turbo-diesel V8: 555 hp and 1,230 lb-ft, up to 38,000 lbs of towing (3500HD, properly equipped)
• First-ever electric power steering on the Silverado HD
• eBoost braking for better stopping under heavy loads
• 13.4-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch driver display
• Up to 14 camera views and Google Gemini voice assistant
• New ZR2 off-road package with a 1.5-inch lift, larger DSSV dampers, and 35-inch mud-terrain tires

2027 Chevy Silverado 2500 price

The 2027 Silverado 2500HD starts at $49,995 with destination for a 2WD Work Truck. A 4WD Crew Cab High Country starts at about $78,195. Adding the new 8.3L Duramax diesel raises the price considerably, so expect diesel High Country trucks to land in the high $80,000s to low $90,000s. HD trims are WT, Custom, LT, LTZ, ZR2, and High Country.

2027 Chevy Silverado 2500 Duramax

The 2027 Silverado 2500 Duramax switches to a new, larger 8.3L turbo-diesel V8 that replaces the old 6.6L Duramax. It makes 555 hp and 1,230 lb-ft, which GM says are the best figures in the class. It comes with diesel exhaust braking and a tow/haul mode with extra steering damping.

2027 Chevy Silverado 3500 and HD pricing

The 3500HD shares the 2500HD’s engines and cabin but adds a stronger rear axle and dual-rear-wheel options for maximum towing. Expect 3500HD pricing to start around $52,000 to $54,000 with destination and pass $95,000 for a loaded dually diesel High Country.

Is there a 2027 Chevy Silverado EV?

Yes. The Silverado EV is sold alongside the gas truck as a separate model. The 2027 Silverado EV is a carryover with minor updates. Work Truck, LT, and RST versions stay on sale, and the top trims offer more than 400 miles of range. If you want a full-size electric pickup, it’s a real option. Most buyers, though, will stick with the new gas or diesel 1500.

Is there a 2027 Chevy Silverado SUV?

No. There’s no Silverado SUV. Chevy’s full-size SUVs built on the same platform are the Tahoe and Suburban. If you want Silverado-style toughness with three rows, read our 2027 Chevy Tahoe guide.

Insurance and running costs

A new full-size pickup isn’t cheap to insure. Expect a 2027 Silverado 1500 to cost roughly $2,000 to $2,800 a year to insure for an average driver with full coverage. ZR2 and High Country models sit at the top of that range because of their price and the cost of their sensors and screens. Get a rough number before you sign with our free car insurance estimate tool, which needs no personal details.

Fuel is the other big cost. The 2.7L and the Duramax are the efficient choices. The 6.6L V8 drinks premium, so budget for that if you go for the most powerful engine.

Should you buy the 2027 Silverado or a 2026?

Buy the 2027 if you want the new V8s, the big screens on every trim, and the column shifter. The new truck is a clear step up in tech and power, and the Work Truck and Custom gain a lot of standard gear.

Buy a leftover 2026 if price matters most. Dealers will need to clear out 2026 stock this winter, and discounts of several thousand dollars are likely. The 2026 is still a capable truck, and the 5.3L and 6.2L V8s are proven engines.

Our take

The 2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 fixes the old truck’s biggest weaknesses. The interior is finally modern, every trim gets big screens, and the new 5.7L and 6.6L V8s give it the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in the class. The trim lineup is simpler too, even if fans will miss the LTZ and RST names. Prices are up a little, but standard equipment is up a lot. For most buyers, the Silverado Z71 with the 5.7L V8 or the Duramax is the sweet spot.
