The launch of the 2019 Silverado 1500 is nearing completion, as retail availability of the all-new full-size pickup continues to increase and more body styles and powertrain variants go into production. Since boosting the incentive on the 2019 Silverado mid-January to coincide with its national marketing launch, Chevrolet has been discounting select models of the all-new pickup truck by over $9,000.
The Incentives
Nationwide Chevrolet discounts on the all-new 2019 Silverado on the T1 platform for May 2019 are as follows:
- 2019 Silverado Crew Cab LT with All Star and Z71 packages:
- $3,015 price reduction below MSRP + $5,500 cash allowance + $500 option package discount = $9,015 discount
- 0 percent APR (interest-free) for 72 months when financing with GM Financial
- 2019 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab LT/RST:Â 0 percent APR (interest-free) for 72 months when financing with GM Financial
It’s worth noting that the full $9,015 discount is not exclusive to Current Competitive Owners, as it was in March. In addition, the financing offer now includes the Silverado RST, which was not part of the offer in April.
For reference, here are the 2019 Silverado 1500 trim levels and their corresponding starting MSRPs:
- Work Truck – $35,995
- Custom – $37,795
- Custom Trail Boss – $41,795
- LT – $40,695
- LT Trail Boss – $49,795
- RST – $45,995
- LTZ – $43,000
- High Country – $54,495
Chevrolet offers the following example of the $9,015 discount as it applies to a 2019 Silverado Crew Cab LT All Star with an MSRP of $51,700. The offer lowers the price to a much more palatable $42,685.
Note that the Chevrolet discount only applies to a single Silverado body style (Crew Cab), a single trim level (LT) that’s equipped with two single packages (All Star and Z71). By comparison, rivals like FCA’s Ram Pickup and Ford are offering discounts across the entire model range.
Here’s a history of Chevrolet discounts on the 2019 Silverado T1 so far this year:
- January 2019 (introduced mid-month): $6,505 off
- February 2019: over $7,000 off
- March 2019: over $9,000 off
- April 2019: over $9,500 off

About Chevrolet Silverado
The Chevrolet Silverado is a lineup of full-size pickup trucks sold primarily in North America, but also in the Middle East and in certain markets in South America. Slotting above the mid-size Chevrolet Colorado (known as the S10 in some markets), the Silverado is Chevrolet's largest pickup truck and currently consists of the 1500 light duty model, two Heavy Duty models - the 2500HD and 3500HD, as well as Conventional Class 4, Class 5 and Class 6 Medium Duty models - the Silverado 4500HD and Silverado 5500HD and Silverado 6500HD.
The 2018 Chevy Silverado represents the fifth model year of the third-generation Silverado. It is based on the GM K2 platform shared with other full-size pickup trucks and SUVs from GM. Though the line sold relatively well, it became less competitive in the marketplace with time when compared to its primary Ford F-Series rival, due to lacking cutting-edge features such as turbocharged engines, a rugged off-road variant such as the Ford F-150 Raptor, a diesel engine option in the light duty (1500) model, and also various modern features and equipment.

Luckily, an all-new Silverado arrived for the 2019 model year that addresses many of the issues of its predecessor model. Customers began taking delivery of the all-new truck in the second half of August 2018.
Chevrolet says that the all-new 2019 Silverado is the result of over 7,000 customer interviews - the most intensive research in its history. The new model uses higher grade alloy steel in the bed floor as well as various mixed materials that result in a reduction in weight and improved performance, with weight falling about 450 pounds. The truck also offers an expanded amount of models for a total of eight, including the new 2019 Silverado Trailboss.
Riding on GM's new T1 platform shared with other future GM full-size trucks and SUVs, the 2019 Silverado offers more technology, convenience features, and engine/transmission combinations. While details of five powertrain combos have already been revealed, GM has not yet shared details of the new inline-six 3.0L Duramax Diesel engine, only stating that it will be "best-performing" and that it will be mated to GM's new 10-speed transmission.
Notably, the outgoing, Chevy will continue manufacturing and selling the outgoing, K2 generation Silverado alongside the all-new model for a limited amount of time in limited configurations.
Having overhauled the Silverado 1500, Chevy will next overhaul the Silverado Heavy Duty. The brand released a teaser image of the upcoming all-new 2020 Silverado HD in April 2018 and announced the vehicle in November 2018. The truck will launch in the 2019 calendar year as a 2020 model.
The 2020 Silverado HD will be comprised of the Silverado 2500HD and Silverado 3500HD that ride on a more robust and capable version of the new T1 platform when compared to the 2019 Silverado 1500, while sharing many high-tech features and design elements with its light duty brother.
Completing the overhauled Silverado family is the 2019 Silverado Medium Duty series, comprised of the Silverado 4500HD, 5500HD, and 6500HD.

- GM Flint Assembly in Flint, Michigan, USA
- GM Fort Wayne Assembly in Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
- GM Oshawa Assembly  in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
- GM Silao in Silao, Guanajuato, Mexico
- Navistar Springfield Assembly in Springfield, Ohio, USA (Silverado Medium Duty only)

On a fully loaded RST (crew SB, 5.3, leather buckets, etc). I’m seeing 0% over 72months and $6000 discount (canadian). Something like $144 weekly after taxes
Has me seriously thinking about trading in
@Francisco
Question Sir, I’ve seen crew cabs in our area on dealer lots since late last August. Double cabs came some short time later and about two weeks ago I saw a pair of regular cab long beds on a lot. GM keeps reporting that “more body styles and power trains are going into production”. It seems they have been in production for a while so does GM possibly have another configuration they have yet to release? Possibly a RCSB like the one available in the middle east?
Have yet to see the 3L Duramax Diesel
