2026 Chevy Silverado 2500 Power and Utility

Paired with a smooth-shifting 10-speed Allison automatic transmission, it's built for both strength and control. Prefer a gas-powered option? The 6.6L V8 gas engine still packs a punch with 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque, giving you confident performance for work or play. It also comes equipped with the same reliable 10-speed Allison transmission and can handle up to 19,080 pounds of towing. Whether you're hauling heavy loads or heading out on a weekend adventure, the Silverado 2500 makes sure you've got the power to do it all.

Get ready to haul with confidence, because the 2026 Chevy Silverado HD brings some seriously impressive towing power to the table! The Silverado 2500 HD stands out with its segment-leading maximum Crew Cab towing capability of up to 22,070 lbs when equipped with the available Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel engine, making big jobs feel like no big deal. Whether you're towing equipment, a camper, or a boat for a weekend getaway, this truck is built to handle it all with ease. If you opt for the gas engine, you'll still enjoy a strong max towing capacity of 19,080 lbs, giving you plenty of capability for everyday hauling needs. Step up to the diesel option, and you unlock a jaw-dropping 36,000 lbs of max available towing, perfect for tackling your toughest tasks.

Absolutely! The 2026 Chevy Silverado 2500 is ready to leave the pavement behind and have some serious off-road fun. Two standout models, the ZR2 and Trail Boss, are built to tackle rugged terrain with confidence and style. The ZR2 brings next-level capability with a 1.5-inch factory-installed lift, advanced Multimatic DSSV dampers, a rear electronic locking differential, and aggressive 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires that grip just about anything. Add in durable steel skid plates, and you've got a truck that's prepared for rocky trails and rough conditions. The Silverado HD Trail Boss is no slouch either, featuring a Z71 shocks and suspension package, protective skid plates, and bold 20-inch black wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires. With eye-catching Trail Boss bed decals and rugged red recovery hooks, it looks as tough as it performs.
