KEY FEATURES

CARGO BOX

Durabed uses high-strength roll-formed steel, best-in-class cargo box volume, and 12 standard tie-downs—three times more than competitors—to deliver one of the most functional pickup beds available. Integrated lighting, including corner pillar lamps, cab-mounted cargo lights, and hitch-area lighting, helps illuminate the bed and work area at night.

Durabed also offers convenient power tailgate options for easier loading and unloading.

SUPER CRUISE

Super Cruise integrates advanced technology, including a Driver Attention System and precision LiDAR map data. The Driver Attention System uses a small camera on the steering column with infrared lights to monitor where the driver is looking whenever Super Cruise is active. It can also be used while trailering, with calibrations to manage extra drag and increased braking distance, and offers Lane Change on Demand and Automatic Lane Change when not towing.

Silverado includes 3 years of OnStar services, providing access to Super Cruise, a Wi-Fi hotspot plan, and a suite of connected in-vehicle apps for added convenience and connectivity.
