The 2022 Chevy Silverado Limited – or LTD – will enter the model lineup as a stop-gap measure until production of the refreshed Silverado begins. As such, the 2022 Silverado Limited is essentially a continuation of the 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500, with the same trim levels, options, exterior paint colors, and interior color combinations.
Notably, the Bow Tie brand took a similar approach with the arrival of the fourth-generation Silverado 1500 for the 2019 model year. At the time, the all-new T1-platformed truck was accompanied by a Silverado 1500 Limited model, which was a K2-platformed model offered exclusively in the Double Cab configuration. As such, the Silverado 1500 Limited model is effectively a carry over of the 2021 Silverado 1500 while the automaker readies the refreshed 2022 Silverado 1500 for the market.

Production
Production of the 2022 Silverado 1500 Limited will begin at the GM Silao plant in Mexico on September 20th, 2021 and at the GM Fort Wayne Assembly plant in Indiana on September 27th, 2021.
Additionally, the Oshawa plant in Canada 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
Order books for the 2022 Chevy Silverado lineup will open on July 15th.
Beyond 2021
We expect the fourth-generation Silverado 1500 to remain in production through the 2025 model year.
An all-new, next-generation Chevy Silverado will most likely launch after the 2025 model year.
