The 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 has received a slight price increase across the board, effectively immediately.
From now on, the 2021 Chevy Silverado in WT and LTZ trims will be $400 more expensive, while the LT, RST and High Country be $500 more. The Custom Trail Boss and LT Trail Boss models will get the biggest price increase at $600. These price increases will remain constant on trucks with rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive and no matter which engine/transmission configuration is chosen. These figures were calculated with the destination and freight charges included in the vehicle’s base price.
Pricing for the 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 previously started at $30,595 including destination and freight for a WT trim level model with the 4.3L LV3 EcoTec3 V6 engine and rear-wheel-drive. Under the revised pricing structure, this same truck will start at $30,995.
General Motors applied a wide variety of small changes to the Silverado 1500 for the 2021 model year, including new exterior colors, new available wheels, new standard features, and new packaging contents. The three new exterior colors, are Mosaic Black Metallic, Oxford Brown Metallic and Cherry Red Tintcoat, while Havana Brown Metallic and Cajun Red Tintcoat were removed from the truck’s color palette. The automaker also added a new Realtree Edition to the options list for 2021, which features Realtree camouflage graphics on the hood and on the rear fenders, Realtree logos, a standard bedliner and black badging.
The 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 is built at the GM Fort Wayne Assembly plant in Indiana. The light-duty version of the Silverado will also soon be built at the GM Oshawa Assembly plant in southern Ontario starting in 2022. The Oshawa Assembly plant will also build the heavy duty versions of the Silverado alongside the light duty version, giving GM more capacity to keep up with increased demand for the Silverado and GMC Sierra.

Guess you gotta pay more for all the re-calls, the cheap interior and the development of Mary’s Lectrics.
sarcasm aside, it more likely cost of inflation increases. I was shocked to see the price actually decrease by about same amount from the 2018-2019 MY. Already its MSRP’ed cheaper than any of its competition, though these vehicles sell based off incentives. based on MSRP alone i could never look at ford or RAM, after incentives though, RAM is really competitive. The panic-demic hasnt been easy on inflation and much less production and sales.
Wow, GM used to have the nicest interiors. Not anymore?

Hey GM, how about a RCSB? You make ’em for export. Why not for NA? Used ones dissappear as soon as they’re for sale. Your competitors make them. Put a performance engine in, center console, 20’s, use the hood off the Diesel with the scoop, offer all the bells & whistles, etc. Make it a cool truck!! All the parts are there and all the engineering/certification is done.
I have a friend who is a lifelong GM guy and would buy one today to replace his RCSB but is considering a Ford – Would be his 1st non-GM vehicle EVER!
Most the cause of the increase is likely due to the fact that content that was previously available with packages like all star is now standard. A 2021 Silverado LT will have leather wrapped wheel, heated seats and wheel, auto climate control, push button, and XM as standard options now. When directly compared to a 2020 you’re getting more content for your dollar now.
For 2021 the 20″ wheels are standard on LTZ, 18″ were standard for 2020. Bucket seats are also standard for 21, not so last year.
I see the Ford F150 is up for truck of the year and number three G M is increasing prices…way to stay number three.
.
Already overpriced as it is should lower the prices if anything !
The 5.3 needs a power bump. And yes the trucks need to be lowered.
It’s a shame that they’re going for a price increase, the rear main seal is made of cheap plastic and will leak oil at about 60,000 miles. past warranty
love gm no mater what
love gm no matter what chevy trucks rule
