Exploring the 2021 Silverado 1500 Trailering Features


The Only Truck You Need in 2021

The 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 brings assurance, capability, and style to even your dirtiest jobs, touting powerful engine choices, state-of-the-art technology, and incredible strength for all your towing needs. Under the hood is a standard V6 engine that offers power and capability, but the 2021 Silverado 1500 assures you that it features whichever kind of power you demand. One of the highlighted engines includes a Duramax 3.0-liter turbodiesel engine that generates 277 horsepower and an invigorating 460 lb-ft of torque. The powerful engine is mated to a perfectly tuned 10-speed automatic transmission that ensures that torque is always on tap. However, the Silverado’s powertrains may work overtime to make your tough jobs easier, but they’re not the only hard-working features of this incredible truck. Let’s go around back and discover the Multi-Flex Tailgate.

More than Just a Tailgate

Transforming the way you load up the bed of your Silverado, the Multi-Flex Tailgate lets you expand the use of your bed by offering six unique functions that offer everything from convenient bed solutions to a standing workstation. A few of its many features include the ability to open remotely or at the command of two tailgate-mounted buttons. In addition to extensive cargo space the bed offers, the Multi-Flex Tailgate features second-tier loading options for easy loading, and a 375-pound towing capacity so you can climb inside the bed with assurance.

Taking Trailering Capabilities to New Heights

Improved trailering over the previous generation paired with some of the Silverado’s most efficient engine options mean that you can get all of your towing and hauling done while achieving exceptional fuel economy. Opt for the jaw-dropping 2.7-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and enjoy 9,300lbs of towing capacity, or the Duramax 3.0-liter turbodiesel and enjoy 9,500lbs of towing abilities.
Studies show that 96% of light-duty pickup truck owners tow less than 10,000lbs, but for those that need an all-capable pickup truck that goes above and beyond, the 6.2-liter V8 features a 13,300lbs towing capacity.
