Silverado High Country HD
Silverado
High Country HD, Chevrolet's first premium heavy-duty pickup, combines the
refinement and convenience of the Silverado 1500 High Country with the rugged
capability of the new Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD pickups.
Unique
content includes a chrome grille with horizontal bars, and body-color front and
rear bumpers - including Chevrolet's CornerStep rear bumper. All models include
6-inch tubular chrome assist steps, High Country badges on the doors and
tailgate and High Country logos on the door sill plates.
Under
the skin, the new High Country models are 100 percent Silverado HD, engineered
to tame the toughest tasks and validated by the team that has helped make
Silverado the most dependable, longest lasting pickups on the road. The High
Country comes in 2500HD and 3500HD crew cab models in both two- and
four-wheel-drive. The 3500HD High Country will be available in single- or
dual-rear wheel models, with maximum tow ratings of up to 22,900 pounds for
fifth wheel/gooseneck towing, and up to 19,600 pounds for conventional towing.
Silverado
2500HD High Country models also feature a unique 20-inch chrome wheel.
Single-rear-wheel 3500HD models have an 18-inch chrome wheel, while
dual-rear-wheel models use a 17-inch forged polished aluminum wheel.
Inside,
Silverado High Country HD features an exclusive saddle brown interior. Heated
and cooled perforated premium leather front bucket seats with High Country
logos on the headrests are standard, along with Chevrolet MyLink connectivity
with an 8-inch touch screen, Bose premium audio and front and rear park assist.
Options
include a sunroof, navigation system and a rear-seat entertainment system with
a BluRay/DVD player, as well as a High Country Premium Package that includes
heated steering wheel, driver alert package and power adjustable pedals.
Also
available on the Silverado HD High Country are Chevrolet's new up-level trailer
tow mirrors. The chrome-capped mirrors manually extend for wider trailers and
feature power adjust with memory and power fold. They include heat and turn
signals in the glass. They also incorporate auxiliary clearance lamps and
auxiliary cargo lamps to help make backing a trailer easier.
A
6.0L V-8 specifically tuned for heavy-duty trucks, rated at 360 horsepower and
380 lb-ft of torque. A bi-fuel version of the 6.0L V-8 that can seamlessly
switch from gasoline to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). The
6.6L Duramax turbodiesel teamed with the Allison 1000 six-speed automatic
transmission. Rated at 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque, the Duramax V-8
features a variable-vane turbocharger that acts as an exhaust brake, helping
control speed on downgrades for more confident towing.
The
new Silverado HDs are engineered to bring new levels of confidence to tough
towing through further refinement of Silverado's available cruise control, auto
grade braking, and diesel exhaust brake. Integrating these features helps the
2015 Silverado HD maintain a set speed up and down grades, even when towing a
heavy trailer in mountainous terrain.
