Design
The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD was designed with drivers in mind. Bumper to bumper, on the interior and the exterior, the Silverado is intuitive, tough, and capable. The interior cabin is built with sound-deadening materials, like triple-sealed doors and special materials that let drivers and passengers enjoy conversation and music without the distraction of obtrusive road noises. Steering wheel controls are designed with the driver in mind with infotainment, cruise, and phone controls built right into the steering wheel.
On the exterior the design of the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is bold and truly makes a statement on the road. Like all good design, its features not only make it look great, they also serve an important purpose by improving its overall function. Built for the toughest jobs, the steel body frame can stand up to any task you throw at it. Additional and available features like spray on bed liners, cargo tie-downs, bed lamps, and corner step rear bumpers add to the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD’s looks and capability on the road and on the job.


Performance
The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD has a towing capacity of 14,800 lbs with the standard Vortec 6 Liter V8 engine and up to an incredible 18,100 lbs with the Duramax 6.6 Liter Turbo Diesel V8 engine. With all of that tow capacity, it’s a good thing that Chevrolet gave the Silverado high- powered performance to back it all up. Towing technology abounds on the Silverado 2500HD and is another reason this truck comes in best-in-class in its tow and haul capability. Trailering technology addresses common concerns of haulers like stability, visibility, and braking control. A few popular available trailering technologies are:
- Stabilitrak with Trailer Sway Control – This advanced radar tech detects when the trailer gets out of line and gently applies trailer brakes to get it back in line where it was intended to be.
- Hill Start Assist – Holds brakes in place while drivers move from brakes to gas on inclines or hills to avoid rollback, giving them extra time to make the adjustment safely.
- Digital Steering Assist – Electronic controls make for a safer drive by helping to keep the truck and trailer stable on all kinds of terrain and road conditions.
- Camera Systems – Available camera systems, such as the Echomaster Trailering Camera System, rear vision camera, and trailering mirrors with LED lamps combine to give drivers more control over their tailored cargo.
- Advanced Braking Systems – Braking technology is key when it comes to hauling and trailering heavy cargo. Available braking technology on the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD lets drivers choose from tech like diesel exhaust brakes, integrated trailer brake controls, auto grade braking system, and 4-wheel disc brakes with duralife rotors.
