Chevrolet is bringing back its popular Midnight and
Rally special editions for the 2020 model year on the Silverado 1500, with both
versions unveiled today at the State Fair of Texas. Order books are scheduled to open
next month, with both the new 2020 Silverado Midnight and Rally set to arrive
in dealerships later this year.
The Silverado Rally Edition is a street-focused
variant available on the Custom and RST trims. It features a sporty appearance
and can be had in either Black, Red Hot, Silver Ice Metallic or Summit White. There’s also a body-colored
grille, black Rally stripes on the hood and tailgate, black Chevrolet tailgate
lettering, black badging, black Bowties, black exhaust tips and black assist
steps.
If you opt for the Custom Rally Edition, you’ll also
benefit from having 20-inch black wheels and a 2.7-liter turbo engine working
alongside an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The RST Rally Edition on the other hand
comes with 22-inch black wheels and offers a choice of three powertrains:
2.7-liter turbo / 8-speed, 5.3-liter V8 / 8-speed or 6.2-liter V8 / 10-speed.
Silverado Midnight Edition variants are available on
the LT Trail Boss and Custom Trail Boss trims, and come with a 2-inch factory suspension
lift, the Z71 Off Road Package with Rancho mono-tube off-road shocks, an
automatic locking gear differential, skid plates, 18-inch black wheels and
Goodyear Duratrac tires.
Visuals include the black Silverado badging, black
grille, black Bowties, black bumpers, black exhaust tips and black off-road
assist step – while the red recovery hooks add a little contrast. The LT Trail Boss Midnight
Edition comes with unique High-Intensity LED headlights with dark bezels and
full-curtain signature DRLs. It also features Chevy’s 420 HP 6.2-liter V8
engine and 10-speed auto combo, while the Custom Trail Boss Midnight Edition
can be had with both this unit, as well as a 5.3-liter V8 with a six-speed
automatic.
