Engineered for capability, built for dependability

Under the skin, the new High Country models are 100 percent Silverado HD, engineered to tame the toughest tasks and validated by the team that has helped make Silverado the most dependable, longest lasting pickups on the road.

The High Country will be available in both 2500HD and 3500HD crew cab models in both two- and four-wheel-drive. The 3500HD High Country will be available in single- or dual-rear wheel models, with maximum tow ratings of 22,900 pounds for fifth wheel/gooseneck towing, and a class-leading 19,600 pounds for conventional towing.

Like other Silverado HDs, the High Country HD will offer a choice of three
powertrains:
• A 6.0L V-8 specifically tuned for heavy-duty trucks, rated at 360 horsepower
and 380 lb-ft of torque
• A bi-fuel version of the 6.0L V-8 that can seamlessly switch from gasoline to
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)
• The 6.6L Duramax turbodiesel, teamed with the Allison 1000 six-speed
automatic transmission. Rated at 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque,
the Duramax V-8 features a variable-vane turbocharger that acts as an
exhaust brake, helping control speed on downgrades for more confident
towing

The foundation of the 2015 Silverado HD lineup is a family of fully boxed frames, which use large cross sections, hydroforming and high-strength steels in key areas. The stiffness of the frames contributes to improved handling and ride comfort, while the strength of the frames enhances payload and towing capability.

The Silverado HDs employ an independent front suspension specifically engineered for HD pickup use. Torsion bars are tailored to the weight ratings of the trucks, and allow easier trim height adjustments. In the rear, asymmetrical leaf springs balance ride and load carrying and improve control of axle hop.

The new Silverado HDs are engineered to bring new levels of confidence to tough towing through further refinement of Silverado’s available cruise control, auto grade braking, and diesel exhaust brake. The integration of these features helps the 2015 Silverado HD maintain a set speed up and down grades, even when towing a heavy trailer in mountainous terrain.

Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD High Country models will be available starting this summer.
