    Chevy Silverado 2500: 2 Brawny Powertrains

    Power is the name of the game when it comes to towing cargo—and that’s why this truck features a standard 6.6L V8 engine capable of producing up to 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. All this power means you can easily tow a maximum of 17,370 pounds with the gooseneck hitch and additional equipment.

    Do you want to really up your torque output? The Chevy Silverado 2500 can be upgraded with an available Duramax® 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 engine that produces up to 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. Thanks to the increased torque of this engine, you’ll enjoy a maximum fifth wheel trailering of 18,500 pounds.

      Chevy Silverado 2500: Advanced Transmission System

      In order to take on larger loads, having a serious transmission is key. That’s why this vehicle is equipped with a standard 6-speed heavy-duty automatic transmission. Even with demanding loads, this system won’t back down easily. With this powerful transmission, you can count on the Silverado 2500 to keep you going when you need it most.

      For a transmission designed to deliver even more power, check out the available Allison® 10-speed automatic transmission. Drivers can count on this robust transmission to give them the extra power they need when taking on more extreme jobs.

      When towing with the Allison® 10-speed automatic transmission, use the Tow/Haul mode to fine-tune your drivetrain for optimal power. This drive mode allows your transmission to reduce shift cycling for better control when towing or hauling heavy weights.
