There’s lovely real wood trim, quality leather (available in blue!) and an attractive design that benefits from the more aesthetically pleasing widescreen touchscreen that comes standard with this interior.īesides aesthetics, we appreciate the 13.4-inch touchscreen’s widescreen orientation as it easily allows you to see and operate multiple screens at once, and also lends itself to a more attractive design (although the right side of the screen is quite a reach). Although we were very impressed by how nice the LT trim level is (pictured above, top), it’s the upper trim levels that benefit most from the overhaul (pictured above, bottom left). It’s thoroughly modern, and in some trim levels, arguably class leading. This is less of an issue at a lower price point and for trucks, like these trims levels, with a more rough-and-tumble purpose.Īll the upper trims get the interior design introduced two years ago that proved what happens when GM actually seems to try. The Work Truck, Custom and Custom Trail Boss still have the ugly, half-hearted interior this generation of Silverado originally launched with, complete with 8-inch touchscreen (pictured above, bottom right). There are two completely different interior designs. What are the Silverado interior and in-car technology like? Adaptive cruise control is now standard on the Highway Country, and OnStar and wireless Apple/Android connectivity is now standard on even the Work Truck. People really love black car trim these days. The Blackout appearance package expands beyond the Custom trims to the RST, LT Trail Boss and ZR2. The Midnight Edition appearance package (which requires ordering a host of other equipment) is now available on the High Country in addition to the Custom Trail Boss and 2LT, though the High Country version gets black power assist steps with LED lighting. The 6.2-liter V8 (what, couldn’t think of a “Max” name?) now includes an active dual exhaust with a sport mode. The 2.7-liter turbocharged inline-four engine gets a snappy new name: TurboMax! The Duramax diesel is now available on the ZR2. There are a handful of small updates, changes and additions for 2024.

It just puts its head down and goes about its business. But if we’re talking volume-selling versions, the Silverado 1500’s high baseline of competence generally puts it neck-and-neck with its American competitors – and far afield of its Japanese ones. Its ride quality also leaves something to be desired. Ultimately, there are definitely versions of rival trucks that are more distinctive, appealing and competitive than what the Silverado can manage. Actually, never mind the ritzy Silverado trim levels – even the LT volume-seller is now pretty great. And while there aren’t as many luxury trim levels available as Ford and Ram offer, the Silverado’s handsome, well-constructed and tech-filled cabin is second-to-none in terms of equipment, quality and appearance. It may not offer a high-powered desert runner, but the ZR2 is fully capable of getting very dirty. The Silverado may not offer a hybrid or all-electric version (yet), but its TurboMax and Duramax engines pack loads of torque and excellent fuel economy. Yet, the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is a fine truck that, after scores of substantial updates two model years ago, is impossible to ignore. There’s frankly more to get excited about. The other American truck makers may still get more attention and accolades, what with their Raptors and Lightnings, TRXs and impressive coil-spring suspensions. Pros: Top-notch interior in most trims whisper-quiet diesel useful MultiPro tailgate SuperCruise availability responsive handling Cons: Rougher ride than competitors no hybrid or electric option (yet) 2024 Chevy Silverado Review: Just goes about its business 2.7-liter base engine is now called TurboMax(!), but changes are otherwise light for 2024
