A Close Look at the 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD

Design

Equip with a Duramax 3.0L Turbo diesel with an inline six-cylinder design and hypereutectic aluminum pistons, resulting in a balanced, smooth ride for drivers. Some may ask, what are hypereutectic aluminum pistons and why do they matter? These are internal combustion engine pistons that act on the crankshaft, transforming pressure caused by the burning air-fuel mixture into force. They experience less thermal expansion than their counterparts such as forged pistons making a smoother ride for drivers.  

On the outside, this truck has an extremely functional bed, sporting 12 tie-downs, an innovative, industry-first power up/down tailgate, and a whopping 89.1 cubic foot cargo hold!

Safety

Driver, passenger, and pedestrian safety come first, always. Side blind zone alert, rear-cross traffic alert, front pedestrian braking, automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane change alert with lane keep assist and a lane departure warning ensures that passengers, pedestrians, and drivers alike will know that they are as safe as possible. 8 cameras with 15 views ensure that towing and various other driving actions can be handled with ease.

The MyChevrolet app with trailering makes hauling loads easier and safer. From pre-departure checklists to trailer light tests, and even how-to videos and a glossary of trailer terms you’re sure to be set with these innovations available at your fingertips.  

Range

This 8-speed, rear-wheel drive Silverado offers a maximum highway range of 682 miles, giving the driver a vehicle built for the long haul! To ensure long, memorable rides these trucks offer a 24-gallon fuel tank capacity and a 456-mile city cruising range.

Performance

The peak powerband rotations per minute and responsive feel can all be attributed to the 10-speed automatic transmission, ensuring a noticeably smoother ride. With up to 460 pounds of torque, you’re sure to be satisfied with this Chevy. Some may wonder what torque is and why it matters when buying a truck.  

Torque is the horsepower of the vehicle multiplied by 5252 then divided by the rotations per minute scientifically. This equates to the pulling power of any vehicle while the driver is stepping on the gas. For those that need the pulling power, you’ll be pleased with this beyond capable vehicle.

Once you sit in this Silverado, you’re sure to fall in love with not only its immense beauty but its even smarter interior. From long family trips to the smoothest midnight rides, you’re sure to realize why this truck is the best of its kind regardless of competition. Be sure to visit Crain Chevy to buy new or preowned vehicles such as this one, our individualized financing, or our remarkable service team of dedicated technicians!
