The Chevy Silverado 1500 Towing Capabilities
In order to understand the true capabilities of the Silverado 1500 one must first have a firm grasp on the model’s powertrain lineup and more specifically, its two top performing engines.
• 5.3-liter V8 Engine: Generates 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. Is standard on the LT Trail Boss, LTZ, and High Country trim models (offers Dynamic Fuel Management and Active Fuel Management variants)
• 6.2-liter V8 Engine: Produces 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque while further boasting a ten-speed automatic transmission. Is available on the LTZ and High Country trim models

If you end up settling on a model that’s equipped with the 5.3-liter V8 engine, you’ll be able to tow up to 9,800 pounds. For true power and grit from your truck, opt for a vehicle that boasts the 6.2-liter V8 engine as it amasses its power in a 12,100-pound towing capacity. That’s plenty of muscle to move your fishing boat, camper, or a trailer laden with lawn mowers and landscaping equipment.
