2019 Chevrolet Silverado Spied Showing Off A Slimmer Design

Chevrolet continues to test one of its most important upcoming vehicles: the 2019 Silverado. The full-size pickup is in for an extensive redesign, but the latest spy shots continue to suggest evolution over revolution.
We still see the same angular LED accent lights in the headlights, which at this point remind us of the Ford F-150’s headlight design. The grille also looks toned down for a sleeker appearance and takes a page from the Chevrolet Colorado. The biggest news is right around the wheel wells; the squared-off arches are gone. Instead, rather subtle round arches provide a smidge of flair. Finally, keeping in trend with current design, the mirrors move to the front doors and away from the driver and passenger windows.
It appears this prototype is a mid-range trim level judging by the wheels and lack of dual exhaust tips at the rear. Speaking of the rear, we can’t tell what’s going on yet, but full LED taillights seem like a safe bet. With prototypes shedding more and more camo, we may see the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado sooner rather than later, perhaps at the 2018 North American International Auto Show.

I like the placement of the mirrors, looks a bit upscale and looks to have a similar mold of the Camaro mirrors.
Looks like the headlight will be split internally rather then by the grille for a smoother design.
The high country looks to have a different taillight set up as well, the pictures near the end show the brake light to be a full LED and a much longer
I hope they don’t tone the grille down too much I really liked the big front end.
And looks like they’ve squared up the dashboard especially the passenger side.
I think it’s great you mention the front reminds you of an F150, since you know, the F150 now has a Chevy grill with a hint if GMC. LOL.
I’m probably in the minority but I like the squared off wheel arches. Now it’s gonna look like every other pickup. 🙁
I like em too
100%! I love the current gen look with a massive front truck grill and squared of wheels It makes ford f150s look as manly as a sedan! If Chevy needs to learn anything from ford styling its that they have been mimicking the Silverado trends for a long time now. Now ford features stacked headlights and a big grill bar across the f series lines. Its possible as well that we will see more pronounced lines as the camo comes off. The camo is getting thinner, but they did a good job making that grill look like a ford.
Glad GM is getting rid of square wheel wells. Hope they also remember to add rear A/C vents! And make the seats more comfortable.
AC vents in the rear seats would be nice. One of my only complaints on my 14
I don’t like the new round wheel wells,looks to much like a Colorado and I don’t really think that truck is attractive to look at either.
Does anyone else see this? On the pictures of the 19 silverado with the black cladding all over the truck, the front end pics (the mesh material over the headlight assembly) show that there is some sort of inlet by the strip of LEDS… off to the side that kind of flow downwards. Interesting look, I like it.
Much rather have the square wheel wells. It was a trademark and made it look more rugged. Aldo disappointed that GM still has a small greenhouse and looks like an even lower rear roof line. My 07 Tundra had way more room in the back seat. My biggest pet peeve with GM is the dam B pillar is always in the way when you try and swing your feet out. Get with it GM. MAKE A LARGER REAR SEAT like Toyota and ford and the ram mega cab.
Also not a big fan of the exhaust tips in the bumper.
Like Mike 24 said, rear AC vents are a must. My 2004 2500HD had them. Back seat passengers really appreciated them.
I kind of like the squared off wheel well too . Mirrors on the doors now is a nice touch and vents for those rear passengers would be a plus .
F-150’s do seem to be quietly copying Silverado front ends . Can’t wait to see the Sierra , waiting to see if that will bee my next purchase . Hope to see it at the NAIAS this winter .
Looks like we have ” 2 ” Zach’s on here again ! I noticed the same thing as he did though .
Going with paracutin i wish they left the squared off wheel arches. The trucks had the arches ever since 1973 and i dont understand why they would change it now. Especially with the head lights, even though i may be wrong, it looks as if the styling changed a lot from them also.
