GM just unveiled the refreshed 2024 Chevy Silverado HD, revealing new exterior styling, an overhauled interior space, new tech features, and upgrades to the powertrain lineup, as well as the new Silverado HD ZR2.
The 2024 Chevy Silverado HD is once again offered in 2500HD and 3500HD configurations, as well as Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab body styles. Refreshed 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500HD models also offer dual-rear-wheel configurations and trailering capacity up to 36,000 pounds, while max tow ratings for the Silverado 2500HD increase from 18,510 to 22,500 pounds.
The trim level lineup includes Work Truck, Custom, LT, LTZ, and High Country, while the new Chevy Silverado HD ZR2 will join the lineup later in the model year. Customers can also opt for a wealth of packages and special edition models, including the Z71 Sport Edition, Z71 Chrome Sport Edition, Midnight Special Edition, and Alaskan Snow Plow Special Edition.
Under the hood, the 2024 Chevy Silverado HD cradles the 6.6L L8T V8 gasoline engine as standard, while the 6.6L V8 L5P turbodiesel Duramax engine is optional. The diesel engine also boasts an SAE-certified output boost to 470 horsepower and 975 pound-feet. Both the diesel engine and the gasoline engine connect to the Allison-branded 10-speed automatic transmission as standard, which replaces the GM six-speed equipped by gasoline-powered models previously.
As for exterior, the 2024 Chevy Silverado HD announces its arrival with a new front fascia, headlights, and grille, with C-shaped LED lighting signatures that draw inspiration from the refreshed Chevy Silverado 1500. Tow hooks are now standard across the range, while customers can choose from six new exterior colors, including Sterling Gray, Dark Ash, Radiant Red, Auburn Metallic, Lakeshore Blue Metallic, and Meteorite Metallic. Note that Lakeshore Blue Metallic and Meteorite Metallic both have late availability. New wheel and tire options are also on the table.
Inside, we find an overhauled interior design for LT trims and above. Standout features include an all-new 13.4-inch diagonal infotainment screen and 12.3-inch diagonal configurable driver information center. Tech standouts also include new and enhanced trailering features, such as Adaptive Cruise Control with Trailer, Enhanced Transparent Trailer, Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert, and GCW Alert.
The 2024 Chevy Silverado HD will make its big public debut at the State Fair of Texas on September 29th. Production kicks off in the first half of the 2023 calendar year at the GM Flint Assembly plant in Michigan and GM Oshawa plant in Canada. Exact pricing details are expected closer to the start of production.

BIG disappointment on the HP and Torque for the duramax.
Good looking vehicle, but is anybody disturbed at the fact that they're releasing teasers on the '24 when there are still customers waiting on '22s that were ordered back in '21? I like the '24 so much so that I'm already disappointed with my '23 that I ordered in May and is scheduled for production this week. LOL
I am really disappointed by the new HD hp and lb,ft ratings. The redesign front-end makes this the best-looking HD trucks by quite some distance. However, GM powertrain engineers are the worse in the DAMN business.
How on earth can you promise people over 500 hp and 1080 lb,ft on these refresh trucks and fall way below that figure. The 3.0 I-6 Duramax power upgrade was respectable, this upgrade for the 6.6 was truly pathetic!
Allison(ish) 10-speed transmission on this L8T gas engine is a big difference. That's enough to delay my 2023 order a few months to get the 2024. The six speed ratios were just a tiny bit too far apart for my workloads. 70% of my operation is unloaded, so 87 Octane is the right fuel choice.
I do not care how it looks; never have. Anything GM puts on it that doesn't work well, I replace with something that does. I've been moving my same liftgate to new trucks since 1986. Just a bit of paint touchup, looks new. New seals, fluid, and battery, works like new. I do like all the better functionality safety options.
Are they finally going to do away with the wax coating on the frames and e-coat like ford and dodge?
Interior looks really good. My only issue is whether they changed the seats. The current GM seats are awfully uncomfortable for any drive longer then an hour. It looks like the seats are the same and if they are I may be crossing over to Ford for the first time in my life.
