2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500: What's New, Trims, and Specs
The 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 debuts two all-new V8 engines, a 5.7L and a 6.6L, redesigned from the ground up. This is a full next-generation redesign, not a refresh, with a new exterior, new interior, and new tech stack. Below you will find every trim, spec, and key change, plus links to current inventory at Jim Norton T-Town Chevrolet.
What's New for 2027
The 2027 Silverado 1500 is a ground-up redesign. Every major system has changed.
The headline news is the powertrain. Chevrolet introduced two next-generation small-block V8 engines, a 5.7L and a 6.6L, both described as "reimagined from the ground up" with improved power and torque over their predecessors. These join the returning 2.7L TurboMax I4 and the class-exclusive 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel I6, giving buyers four distinct engine choices.
The interior is completely new. A 16.3-inch center touchscreen is now standard on every trim, including the base Work Truck. The 12.2-inch digital driver information center is also standard across the lineup, creating what Chevrolet calls an edge-to-edge screen experience. A new available 11.5-inch front passenger screen, standard on ZR2 and High Country, is class-leading in size.
The exterior adopts a bolder, more planted stance with a redesigned grille and signature LED headlamps and taillamps standard on all trims. The Multi-Flex tailgate returns for 2027, and a new Multi-Flex center console folds flat into a workstation with 25 liters of storage.
Super Cruise, the hands-free driving and hands-free towing system, is now available across more of the lineup than in any previous Silverado generation.
Trim Lineup
The 2027 Silverado 1500 offers seven trims, running from the job-site-focused Work Truck to the off-road ZR2.
Work Truck (WT)
This is the entry point. Despite being the base trim, the WT receives the full 16.3-inch touchscreen, 12.2-inch driver information center, LED lighting, and standard safety tech. It is the most accessible way into the next-generation platform.
Custom
The Custom builds on the WT with added style and comfort features suited to daily use and light work duty.
Custom Trail Boss
This trim adds off-road hardware and a 2-inch factory lift to the Custom package, making it the value pick for buyers who need capability without stepping up to the Trail Boss price point.
Silverado (formerly LT)
Renamed for 2027, the Silverado trim occupies the middle of the lineup. It is eligible for the panoramic sunroof and the available passenger screen, and it represents the sweet spot for buyers who want a well-rounded truck without off-road or luxury premiums.
Trail Boss
The Trail Boss carries the 2-inch factory lift and off-road tuning. The panoramic sunroof is available here, making it usable both on the trail and on the highway.
High Country
The flagship luxury trim. Standard features include the panoramic sunroof, the 11.5-inch passenger screen, the head-up display, the rear camera mirror, and 22-inch exclusive wheels. Interior details include real wood trim, micro-fiber suede accent options, Natural Tan edged seatbelts, debossed head restraints, and Tritan Satin accents. The High Country has a redesigned grille and modern black badging exclusive to this trim.
ZR2
The performance off-road flagship. The ZR2 gets 35-inch MT tires and the 2-inch factory lift. The 11.5-inch passenger screen, head-up display, and rear camera mirror are standard. The panoramic sunroof is available. ZR2 represents the most capable off-road Silverado 1500 in the brand's history.
Performance and Powertrain
All four 2027 Silverado 1500 engines pair with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
The 5.7L V8 and 6.6L V8 are next-generation small-block engines built in the United States. Chevrolet has developed these engines over 70 years of V8 history, and the 2027 versions are engineered for more power and torque than the outgoing generation. Specific output figures have not yet been published ahead of the truck's late 2026 on-sale date.
- The 2.7L TurboMax I4 returns as an upgraded option for buyers who prioritize fuel efficiency without sacrificing meaningful capability.
- The 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel I6 is class-exclusive and returns for buyers who need maximum torque for towing and maximum efficiency on long hauls. EPA fuel economy ratings
- Super Cruise with Trailering is available across the lineup, and Chevrolet reports that drivers have collectively logged over one billion hands-free miles on the system.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The 2027 Silverado's interior is a complete departure from the outgoing generation. Materials, layout, and storage have all been redesigned.
The Multi-Flex center console offers 25 liters of storage and folds flat into a sturdy, ergonomic workspace. This is a practical upgrade for contractors, tradespeople, and anyone who spends time working from the cab. The CornerStep rear bumper remains standard for easy bed access.
The Multi-Flex tailgate returns, giving owners multiple configurations for loading and tailgating. The panoramic sunroof, standard on High Country and available on Silverado, Trail Boss, and ZR2, adds natural light throughout the cabin.
High Country buyers get the most refined materials in the lineup, including real wood interior detailing, micro-fiber suede accent options, and unique seatbelt color choices that set it apart from every other trim.
Technology and Infotainment
The 2027 Silverado sets a new standard for technology in the full-size truck segment.
The 16.3-inch center touchscreen is the class-leading unit and is standard on all seven trims, including the Work Truck. The 12.2-inch digital driver information center is also standard across the lineup. These two screens create an edge-to-edge display architecture that is entirely new to Silverado.
The 11.5-inch front passenger screen is standard on ZR2 and High Country and available on other trims. It is class-leading in size and is not visible to the driver. It bundles with the head-up display and rear camera mirror on ZR2 and High Country.
Additional tech features include:
- Dual wireless charging pads
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Super Cruise hands-free driving and hands-free towing (available)
- Built-in voice assistance and real-time navigation via OnStar

Safety and Driver Assistance
Chevrolet has standardized its enhanced safety and driver assistance technology across the entire 2027 Silverado 1500 lineup, starting with the Work Truck. Every trim ships with LED headlights and taillights as standard equipment.
Super Cruise, which includes hands-free highway driving and hands-free trailer towing, is the most significant available safety and driver assistance system on the 2027 Silverado. It is now offered on more trims than in any prior Silverado generation, making it accessible to a wider range of buyers. NHTSA safety ratings
OnStar Basics, included for 8 years, adds automatic crash response and remote vehicle commands as a baseline safety net for every Silverado buyer.
Who It's For and How It Compares to the 2026
The 2026 Silverado 1500 is a strong truck. If you need one now, Chevrolet's current offers make it a practical choice, and Jim Norton T-Town Chevrolet has 2026 inventory available in Tulsa.
The 2027, however, is a different truck in nearly every respect. Buyers who are in no immediate hurry and who want the new V8 engines, the edge-to-edge screen layout, or the redesigned interior should wait for the 2027. The next-generation platform is expected to arrive late 2026 as a 2027 model year vehicle.
For Tulsa-area truck buyers weighing the timing decision, the key question is whether the new 5.7L or 6.6L V8, the standard 16.3-inch screen, or the updated Super Cruise availability changes the calculus. For most power-focused or tech-forward buyers, it will.
