Here’s what sets Silverado apart

Silverado provides value, tech and capability that Ram 1500 just can’t match.

Multi-Flex Tailgate

The available Multi-Flex Tailgate offers six different functions to help improve loading, unloading and accessing the cargo bed.

Super Cruise

Available Super Cruise 12 hands-free driver assistance technology uses real-time cameras, sensors, GPS and LiDAR map data to allow hands-free driving, helping to make long drives and commutes more comfortable. And Super Cruise with trailering 13 allows you to tow heavy loads hands-free. Just as impressive: MotorTrend awarded Super Cruise the Best hands-free driving tech14 over Ram 1500.

Best-in-class highway fuel economy

The available Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel engine — the only diesel in its class 15 — offers a best-in-class EPA-estimated 29 MPG highway 16 — something Ram 1500 can’t say.
