Max Towing and Max Payload

The 2015 Chevy Silverado has a max towing capacity of 17,900 pounds, which frankly blows the competition out of the water. Neither the GMC Sierra Heavy Duty nor any other full-size pickup currently on the market can match the Chevy Silverado’s payload or conventional towing capacity. The Duramax 6.6 liter, V8 turbo-diesel 2015 Chevy Silverado can, in fact, tow a trailer with a payload in excess of 15,000 pounds.

There are more than 100 different configurations of powertrains, cabs, axles and bed lengths to choose from among the 2015 Chevy Silverado. On the broadest level, the 2015 Chevy Silverado comes in your choice of the 2500 HD or 3500 HD.

From there, you can customize the trim (e.g., 2015 Chevy Silverado WT) and the cab that you want (e.g., double cab). One of the new features on the Chevy Silverado double cabs are forward hinges that allow rear passengers greater convenience. Having said all that, you can look up the Chevy Silverado that you want based on whether you’re looking for a regular, double or crew cab. You will also find four different powertrains for your new Silverado.

Each of the four powertrains on the 2015 Chevy Silverado features powerful Vortec or Duramax engines, 6.0 or 6.6 liter engine sizes and your choice of front or rear-wheel drive. The Duramax 6.6 liter, turbo-diesel V8 engine, for instance, gives you 397 horsepower at 3000 RPM and a huge amount of low RPM torque to get you up to speed quickly and tow even the thorniest payloads.

Features at Two Trim Levels

The 2015 Chevy Silverado comes in the WT (work truck) as well as LT trim. The starting MSRP for the front-wheel drive Chevy Silverado WT is priced well under $35,000. In addition, although the 2015 Chevy Silverado LT adds features like Sirius radio, it doesn’t break the bank – the starting MSRP on the Chevy Silverado LT is $34,940.

The WT gives you a Vortec 6.0 liter, V8 engine as well as trailering suspension. You could also go with a slightly more powerful Duramax 6.6 liter, V8 engine with a transmission stocked by Allison. It’s your choice whether to opt for cloth or vinyl seating from that point.

The 2015 Chevy Silverado LT gives you a lower tailgate, cloth seats, Sirius XM radio and OnStar to make sure you get to your destination on time. A 4.2-inch driving information screen is also a standard feature on the Chevy Silverado LT. In other words, the Silverado LT offers the same four powertrain options as the WT while adding features like Sirius XM radio and OnStar. The 2015 Chevy Silverado also adds Chevy MyLink and integrated cruise control.

Spacious Cabs and Cargo Space

The 2015 Chevy Silverado increases the square footage in the cab and gives owners more cargo space. The overall height on the WT and LT stands at 77.8 inches with a ground clearance of over 8.0 inches.

The cargo bay is just over 97 inches long and there’s over 76 cubic feet of total cargo volume on the 2015 Chevy Silverado. Front headroom on the 2015 Chevy Silverado comes in at 42.8 inches; front shoulder room is a very comfortable 66 inches.
