Recognized as America’s most dependable heavy-duty pickup by J.D. Power, the 2025 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD is a powerful vehicle for off-road and highway driving as well as hauling heavy loads.
Check out the Features of the 2025 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD
1. Packed with Power
The Silverado 2500 HD comes fitted with a 6.6L gas engine as standard and is capable of 401 horsepower at 5200 rpm, with an engine torque of 464 lb-ft at 4000 rpm. This gives your new Chevy plenty of pulling power. The 10-speed automatic transmission helps to keep the truck in its optimal power band, leading to better performance and fuel efficiency, particularly when towing.
For more power and pulling capacity, your Silverado 2500 HD can be upgraded to a 6.6L Duramax Turbo-Diesel V8 engine, which beats its gas counterpart in almost every category. It can achieve up to 470 horsepower at 2800 rpm and has an incredibly powerful maximum engine torque of 975 lb-ft at 1600 rpm. This low rev point means your truck can apply maximum pulling force almost immediately from a standing start, making towing much easier to manage.
2. Strong and Stable
The Silverado 2500 HD comes with StabiliTrak as standard. This proprietary electronic stability control system provides crucial assistance to the driver, particularly in emergencies. Sensors in the truck can identify when your vehicle is veering away from its intended path and can help you correct that accordingly by adjusting the engine torque and the brakes as needed.
The system includes traction control, which recognizes wheel slippage; brake assist, which identifies emergency braking; and trailer sway control, which can detect if your trailer is moving off-kilter from the rest of the truck. It also includes hill start assistance, adjusting the torque for maximum pull when required to pull off from an incline.
3. Eyes on the Prize
When driving such a powerful machine as the Silverado 2500 HD, you must have sight of obstacles and other road users, particularly when maneuvering with a heavy trailer in tow. The Silverado comes fitted with 8 exterior and interior cameras, providing 14 different views in and around the vehicle that can be displayed on your dashboard touchscreen.
As well as the popular front, rear, and side views, this camera setup includes a view directly into the bed of your truck, a view of the hitch, views behind and inside your trailer, and a picture-in-picture side view to assist with identifying vehicles approaching in your blind spot. Best of all, if you have a compatible trailer, you can use the transparent trailer view to see the road behind as clearly as if you weren’t towing anything.
