It only amounts to a photograph, a mute fifteen-second video, and a caption paragraph that informs us that it’s currently undergoing final testing in Yuma, Arizona, but Chevrolet has officially began it’s hype-fest for the 2013 Chevrolet Silverado. And insider intel is as locked down as ever.
We can expect the obvious. Lighter weight, increased fuel economy, more power, more capability, more technology, etc. But as far as specifics go, all that’s for certain is that the new trucks will cradle GM’s new small-block V8 engines. Indeed these vehicles still a huge secret, and they’re only a year away.

I’m sure guys who love trucks will love this video. I, however, love cars. Can we get an SS teaser???
Does anyone have any information on the new diesel engines going into the new body style trucks? I haven’t been able to find anything other than a new plant is being built for the new engine.
Yep, it’s a truck…
YAWN….
i am absolutely positive that i will be completely unimpressed styling wise when this is unveiled.
hopefully all the rest of the truck will be up to snuff and sells well anyway.
They actually say where they’re testing it? That almost sounds like an invitation to the spy photographers.

Might be a hint
That roadmap is pretty cool. 4.5L DOHC Turbo V8, 340 HP @ 7000!!! rpm. 7000!!!! and 520 Ft-lbs of tq. I really hope we get to see that available in the 2014 Silverado.
why would a sky high rpm range like that be good in a 4500-5000+lbs truck?
if we were talking next gen Camaro and Vette engine, yeah awesome. but in a truck? no thanks.
I love the split center bar on the grille.
i dont believe this is the new body.maybe a new frame .test whit the old body..end a new engine…..
