As a reminder, the 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 Limited was offered with a wide range of powerplant options. Among these is the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, atmospheric 5.3L V8 L84 gasoline engine, atmospheric 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine, and 3.0L I6 LM2 turbodiesel Duramax engine. Under the skin, the Chevy Silverado 1500 rides on the GM T1 platform.

Production of the Chevy Silverado 1500 takes place across three facilities, including the GM Fort Wayne plant in Indiana, GM Silao plant in Mexico, and GM Oshawa plant in Canada.

Meanwhile, the 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD and 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD are offered with two powerplant options, including the atmospheric 6.6L V8 L8T gasoline engine as standard and the 6.6L V8 L5P turbodiesel Duramax as option.

As of 2019, Silverado HD models have been assembled at the GM Flint plant in Michigan. Additionally, the GM Oshawa plant in Canada recently began building the Silverado HD alongside the Silverado LD (1500).
