CarGurus Analysis: 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
overall

Summary
With 227 currently listed for sale near Akron, OH and an average price of $27,337, 28.2% of 2020 Chevrolet Silverados for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4.48 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 7.17 / 10.
100.0% of 2020 Silverado 1500 models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 stands out as a full-size pickup built for work, play, and everyday use, with the kind of broad appeal that has made trucks a defining part of the American market. It follows its 2019 redesign with several updates, including a new 3.0-liter turbodiesel inline 6-cylinder engine, greater availability of popular powertrains across trim levels, a new bed-view camera, and a camera-based adaptive cruise control system. Those changes make the truck more appealing on paper, especially for buyers who want a wide range of configurations and modern convenience features.
Even so, the 2020 Silverado 1500 still has some notable shortcomings. The available advanced safety features are not standard, and it is described as poor value for money. Owners, however, often praise its excellent fuel economy, smooth performance, and spacious interior, which helps explain why it remains attractive to shoppers who want a comfortable full-size truck with strong everyday usability.

I purchased the 3.0 liter diesel for the torque and fuel economy. Neither one disappoints. The $50k purchase price was steep but was the best value when compared with equally trimmed competitors. I love this truck!

Is the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 a good car?
Generally — you’re looking at a 4.48/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating, which points to broad owner satisfaction with some clear caveats. The standout strength is Performance at 9/10.
Owners repeatedly praise the excellent fuel economy, smooth performance, and spacious interior. They also like the truck’s comfortable ride and strong everyday usability, especially if you want a full-size pickup that can handle work and daily driving. On the downside, the truck’s value proposition is a recurring concern, and some owners wanted more features for the money.
That lines up with the overview: this is a truck built for work, play, and everyday use, with broad configuration appeal and modern convenience features. Even so, the market still reflects a model that’s more compelling for capability and comfort than for bargain pricing. Only 30.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so you may need to shop carefully to find the right one.
Is the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 reliable?
Owners rate it 4.48/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.
The owner summary points to a truck that feels dependable in daily use, with praise for smooth performance, excellent fuel economy, and a spacious cabin that supports long-term ownership. That kind of feedback suggests you can count on it for regular driving and hauling duties without feeling worn out quickly.
The expert notes also reinforce that this is a fundamentally capable truck with broad powertrain choice and strong everyday usability. Chevrolet also includes 10 years of free remote diagnostics and maintenance prompts, which can help you stay ahead of service needs.
For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that some desirable features and safety tech were not widely standard, so condition and equipment level matter a lot.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
At 73.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a hands-on inspection of bodywork, cameras, and safety equipment. Because this truck was offered in many configurations, you’ll also want to confirm that the trim and option content match the listing description. Focus on overall condition, feature completeness, and signs of prior repair rather than assuming every Silverado on the lot is equally equipped.
Key things to evaluate:
- Trim level: The lineup includes WT (Work Truck), Custom, LT, RST, LTZ, and High Country, with Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab body styles. Base trims are more stripped down, while LTZ and High Country bring the most advanced driver-assistance features; Trail Boss versions add off-road hardware and a more rugged setup.
- Powertrain: You can choose among multiple engines, including a new 3.0-liter turbodiesel 6-cylinder, a turbocharged 2.7-liter 4-cylinder, a 6.2-liter V8, and other gasoline options, with broader availability of the 10-speed automatic this year. The diesel is noted for up to 27 mpg on the highway.
- Safety package: Forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and camera-based adaptive cruise control are limited to LTZ and High Country. Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning can be added to LT and RST.
- Infotainment: You get a 7-inch or 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Chevrolet Connected Access, and a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot. Available upgrades include navigation, wireless device charging, a head-up display, and a camera-based rearview mirror.
- Fuel efficiency: The diesel engine returns up to 27 mpg on the highway, and the test truck averaged 16.8 mpg in combined driving.
Which 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 trim should I buy?
The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is offered in 6 trim levels: WT (Work Truck), Custom, LT, RST, LTZ, and High Country.
Here's the short version:
- WT (Work Truck): This is the most basic choice, so it makes sense if you want the lowest entry point and don’t need much beyond core truck duty.
- Custom: This adds a bit more everyday appeal than WT while staying on the affordable side, making it a practical step up if you want a little more equipment without chasing luxury.
- LT: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it sits in the middle of the range and can be paired with useful options like blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic warning.
- RST: Choose this if you want a more style-focused truck with the ability to add the same blind-spot and rear cross-traffic warning features available on LT.
- LTZ: This is the first trim with forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and camera-based adaptive cruise control, so it’s the smart pick if safety tech matters most.
- High Country: This is the most upscale version, and it bundles the same advanced safety systems as LTZ with the most premium positioning in the lineup.
For safety-package shoppers, the advanced driver-assistance features are concentrated in LTZ and High Country, while LT and RST can be equipped with blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic warning.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
The market looks selective rather than overheated, so you have room to shop, but the best listings still deserve quick attention.
- Deal availability: 30.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 9,663 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 8.02% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 73.4% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $28,385, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500's resale value?
The current average of $28,385 sits slightly below last year's $30,859.
That price movement suggests the truck has softened enough to create a more buyer-friendly entry point today, but it also means future sellers may not see the same pricing strength they would have a year ago. If you buy well now, you’re starting from a lower basis, which can help limit depreciation pressure later. Trim, mileage, and condition will matter a lot because the market clearly rewards the better-equipped and better-kept examples.
Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.48/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Is the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 safe?
The Silverado earns a four-star overall rating from NHTSA, with four-star ratings for driver and front passenger protection in a head-on collision. In IIHS testing, it earned a Marginal rating for front passenger protection in a small overlap frontal-impact collision on the right side, a Good rating for the driver on the left side, and Poor headlights.
It earns a 5/10 safety score from our experts.
Chevrolet includes a rear-seat reminder system and Teen Driver driving report card technologies as standard, but the more advanced driver-assistance systems are not broadly spread across the lineup. Forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and camera-based adaptive cruise control are reserved for LTZ and High Country. Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning can be added to LT and RST.
The main safety caveat is that the truck’s advanced safety tech is limited and its crash-test results are mixed, so you should pay close attention to trim level and equipment.
Should I buy a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 30.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 73.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 8.02% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.48/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
- The 2020 adds a new 3.0-liter turbodiesel engine, a bed-view camera, and camera-based adaptive cruise control.
Consider the 2019 if:
- At $26,302, the 2019 costs less than the current year's $28,385 average.
- The 2019 is a redesigned truck that emphasizes comfort, capability, and brand-loyal appeal.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $31,053, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $28,385 average.
- The 2021 emphasizes broad powertrain choice, easy-to-use tech, and an affordable diesel option.
The bottom line: The 2020 makes sense if you want the updated powertrain and tech mix without paying next-year pricing. If you’re price-sensitive, the 2019 can save you money, while the 2021 is the better path if you want to spend more for a newer model-year alternative.
