2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 | Cumming Chevrolet
At Cumming Chevrolet in National City, we’re here to help San Diego-area truck shoppers compare Silverado 1500 engines, trims, towing capability, technology, and configurations to find the truck that fits how they plan to use it.
What’s New for the 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
The 2027 Silverado 1500 debuts an all-new exterior design with a bolder stance, redesigned grille, new LED headlights and taillights, and more pronounced wheel-opening treatments. Custom and higher trims also feature standard dual exhaust.
Inside, Chevrolet has significantly expanded the Silverado’s digital technology. A 16.3-inch center display and 12.2-inch Driver Information Center are standard, while an available 11.5-inch front-passenger display contributes to more than 60 inches of combined available digital display area.
An available Multi-Flex Center Console adds another practical touch, folding flat to create a workspace while also providing additional cabin storage and flexibility.
2027 Silverado 1500 Engines, Towing and Payload
The 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 offers four engine choices, giving shoppers several ways to balance performance, towing, hauling, and everyday driving needs.
- Enhanced 2.7L TurboMax with a 10-speed automatic transmission
- Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel
- Next-generation 5.7L V8 with 402 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque
- Next-generation 6.6L V8 with 481 horsepower and 501 lb-ft of torque
When properly configured, the 2027 Silverado 1500 offers maximum available trailering of up to 13,700 pounds with the 5.7L V8. Maximum available payload reaches 2,340 pounds with a properly configured 2.7L TurboMax model.
Because towing and payload ratings depend on the truck’s engine, cab, bed, drivetrain, equipment, and configuration, compare the specifications for the individual Silverado you’re considering rather than relying only on the lineup’s maximum figures.

The 2027 Silverado 1500 lineup includes seven trims:
- Work Truck (WT)
- Custom
- Custom Trail Boss
- Silverado

2027 Silverado 1500 ZR2 Bison Edition
The available Silverado 1500 ZR2 Bison Edition builds on the ZR2’s off-road focus with equipment developed with American Expedition Vehicles (AEV).
Features include AEV front and rear bumpers, rocker protection, 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels, and additional underbody protection. For shoppers who expect to spend significant time away from pavement, the ZR2 and ZR2 Bison Edition give the Silverado lineup distinctly off-road-focused options.

Choosing the Right 2027 Silverado 1500
With multiple engines, seven trims, and different cab, bed, and drivetrain configurations, choosing a Silverado 1500 starts with how you plan to use the truck.
