The 2025 Chevy Silverado HD, a highly capable truck that turns fast at dealerships and has been a top performer among heavy-duty pickup models in several recent evaluations, has won another accolade for its likelihood of retaining high residual value over the first four years after purchase.
Specifically, the 2025 Chevy Silverado HD took first place in the Large Heavy Duty Pickup segment of the J.D. Power 2025 Canada ALG Residual Value Awards, after repeated previous successes.
The beefy Bow Tie brand truck was forecast to keep the highest percentage of its original MSRP after four years of use (versus three years for luxury models). While the 2025 Chevy Silverado HD is obviously still too new for actual residual value to be measured, an assessment of its quality, features, and options, plus extensive data and price analysis of earlier model years, enables J.D. Power to offer an accurate estimate.
Among the factors weighed, according to the analysis firm, are “used-vehicle performance, brand outlook and product competitiveness” as well as “mileage, quality/reliability, options and feature sets and macroeconomic environment.” The resulting predictions help predict both total cost of ownership and end-of-lease value for various models.
The Chevy Silverado HD has been a successful model in the Canadian Residual Value Awards for half a decade now if the current year is also counted. It was one of four GM models to achieve first place in its segment in 2021, and repeated its wins for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 model years.
In the U.S. Residual Value Awards, it has tended to be defeated by a different General Motors heavy-duty model, the GMC Sierra HD. The Sierra HD took the award in 2022, 2024 and 2025, but the Chevy Silverado HD was the winner in 2023, making it the leading HD pickup for residual value both in the U.S. and Canada in that model year.
The Awards choose 32 segment winners, this year out of a pool of 282 competing vehicle models. Customer success managing director Danny Battaglia says that the winning brands’ “tactical approach to pricing trim levels and powertrains also helps raise residual performance and provides long-term value for shoppers that are buying in a competitive market.”

the gas version L8T engine sierra needs to be updated for the upcoming 2026 hd truck.
Hope the heck they’re built better than my 2024 Silverado that’s setting behind the shop with 17,000 miles on it and it won’t go forward very fast it won’t go backwards at all and I don’t have parts to fix it. First time I ever had trouble with a Chevy
