What’s New for the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD
Chevrolet added several new standard and available features for 2025. The list includes parking assistance for several trims, standard adaptive cruise control for the High Country model, and new exterior styling touches for most trim levels.
Design
The Silverado HD features a stout, upright design with blocky shapes and a muscular presence. Chevy offers a range of wheel choices, and each trim gets unique exterior accents, such as blacked-out badges and grille options.
Powertrain
Chevy offers two engine choices in the 2025 Silverado HD. The standard mill is a 6.6-liter gas V8 making 401 horsepower and 464 pound-feet of torque. The available 6.6-liter V8 turbodiesel makes 470 hp and 975 lb-ft of torque, giving the truck up to 20,000 pounds of towing capabilities. Both engines come paired with an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission and either rear-wheel drive (RWD) or four-wheel drive (4WD).
Interior
The Silverado HD’s interior ranges from basic work truck accommodations to a premium experience rivaling some luxury vehicles. In its most basic form, the truck comes with cloth or vinyl upholstery, but higher trims add genuine hides, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear outboard seats, a heated steering wheel, and more.
Technology
A 7-inch touchscreen comes standard, along with an analog gauge cluster and a 3.5-inch driver-information display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also on board, and Chevy equips two USB ports, Bluetooth, and either two or six speakers, depending on the configuration. More expensive trims get a 13.4-inch touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, navigation, a Bose stereo, wireless phone charging, SiriusXM radio, HD radio, and more.
Safety
HD trucks don’t undergo the same degree of crash testing that mainstream trucks do, but the Silverado HD still comes with a handful of standard features that increase peace of mind. They include automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, automatic high beams, GM's Teen Driver mode, and rear-seat alert.
Available safety tech includes adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, a surround-view camera system, a digital rearview mirror, automatic windshield wipers, safety alert seats, and a head-up display.
Pricing and Release Date
Pricing for the 2025 Chevy Silverado 2500HD starts at $47,295, which includes a $1,995 destination charge. The top High Country trim with a crew cab, 4WD and a long bed costs $75,095 to start. The new Silverado 2500HD is on sale now.
