Heavy-Duty Excellence: The 2025 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD

Performance

Every Silverado 2500 HD has two engine options: a 6.6L V8 gas engine or a 6.6L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine. The 6.6L V8 gas engine comes standard on all trims, offering 401 horsepower at 5200 rpm and 464 lb.-ft. of torque at 4000 rpm. Drivers with profound towing needs often choose the available 6.6L Duramax engine because it delivers a maximum towing capacity of 22,070 pounds, along with 470 horsepower at 2800 rpm and 975 lb.-ft. of torque at 1600 rpm.

Exterior

Pickups in the Silverado lineup come with helpful exterior elements like the CornerStep rear bumper and Durabed, making them great work trucks. The CornerStep rear bumper helps you maintain your footing when accessing your cargo box, while the Durabed is made with roll-formed steel to provide a high-strength surface for the toughest cargo materials. Cab-mounted cargo area lamps and twelve cargo tie-downs are two other exterior features that can make your projects easier.

The Chevy Silverado 2500 base trim comes with 17-inch steel wheels that are paired with all-season blackwall tires. Other standard exterior features include black bumpers, halogen headlamps, vertical trailering mirrors, and a locking tailgate.

Interior

The Silverado 2500 has 6-passenger seating across two bench seats. Under the front bench, there’s a hidden cargo compartment for small items. The seat bottoms on the rear bench fold upwards to create even more cargo room on the floor.

Inside the Silverado 2500, there’s a 3.5-inch monochromatic driver information center that displays your truck’s speed, fuel levels, engine warnings, and mileage. The 6-speaker audio system turns your cabin into a concert with its rich sound quality, while the cruise control function maintains your desired speed during long drives. Other 2500 cabin features include USB charging ports, power locks, power windows, and single-zone climate control.

Connectivity

The new Silverado 2500 HD comes with a Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system that measures seven inches. This infotainment system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with voice command pass-through. Voice command pass-through is a convenient tool that allows you to use your phone through voice controls as you drive.

Safety

Safety features in the 2025 Silverado 2500 include a wide range of driver-assistance functions, like Lane Departure Warning and Following Distance Indicator. StabiliTrak electronic stability control keeps your truck upright during rapid maneuvers, while Tire Fill Alert warns you when one of your tires is underinflated.
