LAST NAME DEPENDABLE.
FIRST NAME MOST.

You don’t build a legacy as the most
dependable, longest-lasting full-size
pickups on the road
with strength, capability and advanced
technology that stand the test of time.
And the test of miles.

That strength is seen in a muscular front
end with a sculpted hood and signature
LED lighting accents. Capability is
defined by three EcoTec3 engines that
deliver power and efficiency. Tough,
proven high-strength steel that provides
high-strength dependability raises the
bar even higher.

We’ve redefined what a truck should be
with our active safety and connectivity
features. And the 2016 Silverado 1500
was named “Highest Ranked Large
Light Duty Pickup in Initial Quality” by
J.D. Power.

EXTERIOR DESIGN

1500 Crew Ca b Short Box LTZ Z71 4x4
in Siren Red T intcoat (ex tra-cost
color) with available features.

A FAMILY WITH POWERFUL
PERSONALITIES.

Every Silverado has
a striking appearance. The front end
design, with bold horizontal elements and
chiseled hood, creates a wide, aggressive
stance. Each model is unmistakable,
projecting the strength and capability
that can only belong to Silverado. Head
to the specs section to see them all.

LIGHT ’EM UP. Leading the way with

signature looks and impressive
efficiency, LED technology also allowed
our designers to wrap the turn signals
and brake lights around the contours of
the main lights and other elements on
select models. On WT, LS, Custom, LT and

LT Z71 models, high-intensity discharge
projector-beam headlamps produce a
tightly controlled light pattern. LTZ, LTZ
Z71 and High Country take illumination to
another level with LED headlamps that
light the road or trail ahead.

DYNAMICALLY AERODYNAMIC.

Aero shutters help ensure only the
air necessary for cooling is directed
through the radiator, while the rest
flows smoothly around the truck. Air
deflectors strategically positioned in
front of the rear tires and a rear tailgate
spoiler help reduce turbulence and
drag. The resulting low drag coefficient
contributes to impressive fuel efficiency.

1

1. STRONG FROM ANY ANGLE. Silverado

has a sculpted hood that adds depth and
strength to the muscular front end.

2. A LASTING IMPRESSION. Wraparound

LED taillamps have deep grooves and
allow for expressive styling on LTZ,
LTZ Z71 and High Country.

3. BRIGHT IDEAS. LTZ, both Z71 models

and High Country come equipped with
tri-beam LED foglamps.
