The Chevy Silverado is in the middle of its fourth generation, a truck that he strives in vain every year to overthrow the powerful Ford F-150, however, a truck that prints a lot of money for GM A fifth generation has probably finished a few years, which means, in the meantime, a bit of an upgrade in the form of aesthetic upgrades and a whole new finish.
Aesthetic upgrades include changes to the front casing that, for my money, make the truck look a little less aggressive and ugly, which is good, like the current Silverado it makes me want to die a little. Meanwhile, inside, Chevy says there’s a “completely redesigned interior,” which includes a 13.4-inch screen with integrated Google Maps, Wizard, and Play. This is important, in large part, because the interiors of the Chevy truck line have not been very well received. This one looks substantially better:
Most exciting, though, is the ZR2 model, which Chevy says is the first for Silverado and will be the Silverado’s flagship off-road model with a maximum payload of £ 1,440 and a towing capacity of up to £ 8,900. . More details via Chevy release:
Highlights of ZR2 include:
- Standard 6.2L V-8 engine, which provides 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, coupled with a 10-speed automatic transmission
- Silverado: first application of dampers of roller valve DSSV of 40 mm Multimatic, that include:
- Three separate coil valves to control damping
- Three connected chambers for fluid flow
- Unique tuning springs that, with Multimatic shock absorbers, increase the maximum travel of the front and rear suspensions, compared to the Silverado Trail Boss
- Front and rear electronic cabinets
- Specific chassis calibrations and off-road suspensions, including Terrain mode, which allows single-pedal pedal tracking5
- 33-inch all-terrain tires
- Unique package of non-slip plates
- New high-approach steel front bumper designed for off-road durability, durability and separation that allows for an improved 31.8-degree approach angle compared to other Silverado all-terrain models
The bumper is designed with removable end caps to facilitate replacement in the event of nearby encounters with rocks or other off-road objects. The dual exhaust has been placed in front of the rear bumper to eliminate possible damage.

The grille, interior and 18-inch wheels are also unique and the ZR2 will also have a black hood. Also the Multi-Flex rear hatch:
Elsewhere, Chevy claims that Silverado High Country 2022 will be the first Chevy truck to be offered with Super Cruise, GM’s semi-autonomous system that Consumer Reports reports he thinks he’s better than Tesla’s autopilot. Chevy says Super Cruise can even be used while the trailer is being made “with specific calibrations designed to take into account the extra drag and increased braking distance the trailer entails.”
Plus, for 2022: The 2.7-liter base four-cylinder engine increases maximum torque by 20% to 420 lb-ft of torque, according to Chevy, while chassis changes make those opting for the turbo of 3.0 liters the diesel has a towing capacity of up to 13,300 pounds, or 4,000 pounds more than the current one.
The 2022 Silverado is, as they say, better than ever. Chevy didn’t post the prices, but you can assume Silverados will be a bit more general. The 2021 Silverado starts at around $ 30,000 and reaches more than double.
