The 2023 Chevrolet Silverado is expected to bring small rolling changes to the Light-Duty Silverado 1500 model following the major refresh for the 2022 model year.
Meanwhile, the Heavy-Duty Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD models were initially set to receive a major refresh for 2023 – including new front and rear end designs, a new interior, along with potential powertrain updates – however, the product cycle is now behind by a model year due to complications brought on by COVID-19 and a shortage of superconductor chips. Additionally, the current HDs are performing extremely well in the market place.
The Medium-Duty Silverado 4500HD, 5500HD, and 6500HD trucks, on the other hand, are expected to receive minor changes and updates.

Platform
- The 2023 Silverado Light Duty rides on the GM T1 platform shared most directly with the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. The same basic architecture is also used on the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2021 Chevrolet Suburban, 2021 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, and 2021 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV
- The 2023 Silverado Heavy Duty rides on a more capable version of the same GM T1 platform
- The 2023 Silverado Medium Duty rides on a dedicated platform jointly developed by GM and Navistar
Production
As of 2019, Silverado 1500 models have been assembled at the GM Silao plant in Mexico and the GM Fort Wayne plant in Indiana, USA, while the Silverado HD has been built at the GM Flint plant in Michigan.
Additionally, the GM Oshawa plant in Canada now builds the Chevrolet Silverado, initially producing the Silverado HD and then the Silverado 1500 a few months thereafter. This will make Oshawa the only GM plant to exclusively produce the Chevy Silverado, and the only that assembles both light and heavy-duty trucks.
The Silverado Medium Duty 4500 HD, 5500 HD, and 6500 HD are built at the Navistar Springfield plant in Springfield, Ohio, United States.
