How Much Can the Chevy Silverado Tow?

---

The exact towing capacity of the Silverado will depend on the specific configuration you choose. That includes the engine option you get for your new Silverado. With its standard 4.3L EcoTec3 V6 engine, which produces 285 horsepower and 305 lb-ft of torque, the Silverado is capable of towing 7,900 pounds when properly equipped.

If you need even stronger towing capabilities, the Chevy Silverado offers more powerful engine options to provide just that. The available 310-horsepower, 2.7L Turbo engine gives the Silverado a towing capacity of 9,300 pounds when properly equipped. The available 3.0L Duramax® Turbo-Diesel I-6 engine generates 460 lb-ft of torque, which increases the towing capacity to 9,500 pounds when properly equipped.

With its available 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 engine that produces 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, the Chevy Silverado will be able to tow up to 11,500 pounds when properly equipped. Offering the maximum towing capacity for the Chevy Silverado is the available 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 engine. This engine generates 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque to provide a towing capacity of 13,300 pounds when properly equipped.

Pack Up More in the Bed of the Silverado

---

Beyond what it can pull behind, the Chevy Silverado is also built to provide plenty of cargo capabilities with its bed. If you opt for a Long Bed model, you will have 89.1 cubic feet of cargo volume to use in the bed. This is more cargo space than most SUVs offer, so you can load in everything from new appliances for your home to supplies for your weekend DIY project.

Plus, this truck can safely handle a great deal of weight since it has a maximum payload capacity of 2,280 pounds when properly equipped. You can also get the available Multi-Flex Tailgate, which has six different functions to help make it easier for you to load, unload, and access the cargo bed.

Feel More Confident While Towing

---

From hitching up your trailer and parking it to viewing your surroundings while driving, the Chevy Silverado offers up to 15 available camera views to help you safely and easily maneuver your truck and whatever you are towing.

To enjoy controlled and smooth driving as you tow with your Silverado, you’ll have the help of safety systems, like Trailer Sway Control, Hill Start Assist, and Auto Grade Braking. You can also get the available Advanced Trailering System, which lets you quickly check your trailer lighting, tire pressure, and other important aspects of your trailer’s overall safety before you start driving.
