Production
The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado HD is assembled at the GM Flint Assembly plant in Flint, Michigan, USA.
In addition, the GM Oshawa Assembly in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada builds the last-generation K2 models through at least the end of the 2018 calendar year. Most recently, the Oshawa plant is currently only building Chevrolet Silverados. Production began with the Silverado HD in November. In the spring of 2022, Oshawa will begin producing Silverado 1500s, timed with the launch of the refreshed model announced earlier this year. This will make Oshawa the only GM plant to exclusively produce Silverado models, and the only plant making both light and heavy-duty trucks.
Availability
The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado HD followed the regular GM model year rollover sequence, and launched in the third quarter of the 2019 calendar year.
Beyond 2019
The 2019MY is the final model year for the third-generation Chevrolet Silverado HD, as an all-new, fourth-generation HD model launches for the 2020MY: see 2020 Chevrolet Silverado HD.
