Performance & Capability
Engine Capability
Ontario is a diverse piece of land with a multitude of landscapes, and the 2021 Chevy comes with an engine for every one. Across these 5 engine options, you can outfit your pickup with what you want, from the 2.7L Turbo with a quick response, to the raw power of the 6.2L V8.
Diesel Power & Efficiency
Quite simply the Silverado diesel is the most fuel efficient pickup in Canada. The Duramax 3.0L in-line 6-cylinder Turbo-Diesel provides top-of-the-line highway and combined fuel efficiency, thanks to its advanced combustion tech, which even lessens noise and smell. Further helping its efficiency is being connected through a Hydra-Matic 10-speed automatic transmission, for seamless operation.
Towing & Hauling
The 2021 Silverado 1500 offers eye-popping max capability numbers of 6,033 kg (13,300 lbs) for towing, 1,034 kg (2,280 lbs) for payload and 2,523 L (89.1 cu-ft) for cargo space. If that isn’t evidence enough for the Silverado’s hardworking tendencies, it also offers up a host of towing tech. This includes its 15 camera views to the in-vehicle trailering system and intuitive features like Trailer Sway Control, Hill Start Assist and Auto Grade Braking

4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot
For those who need a stable internet connection, especially useful for the working professional on-the-go, the 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot ensures that just because you’re out of the office doesn’t mean your work has to stop.
myChevrolet App

Straight from the comfort of your phone you can lock/unlock the doors, start the engine on a cold winter morning, set reminders, view vehicle health info and more.
Safety
Forward Collision Alert
Available on the WT, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LTZ and High Country, the Forward Collision Alert warns you to take action if it detects an imminent front-end collision. And for those who may find themselves accidentally tailgating, the truck alerts as well when you’re following too close.
Lane Change Alert
The Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert is here to provide another set of eyes when yours can’t see all around you. It does so by alerting you through side-mirror visuals as soon as a vehicle enters your blind spot or fastly approaches to your side.
Front and Rear Park Assist
It’s not all about highway assist when it comes to the Silverado, but it also helps when parking your truck as well. Don’t be intimidated by perfectly fitting its large size in a space without hitting anything when you have the Front and Rear Park Assist at your disposal. Distance alerts and detected objects are shown to you so you can avoid all impediments.
What’s New From the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
Just because the Silverado has been one of the best-selling pickups over the past few decades doesn’t mean it’s stopped innovating. To the contrary, for 2021, and just like the updates for 2020, a host of new upgrades were implemented for this new model year. New is the Multi-Flex tailgate that adds even more versatility to the pickup’s cargo bed, improved infotainment tech to stay better connected and trailer-tow features to further add-on to the Chevy’s top flight towing capability.
