New sporty RS trim added to the lineup. Larger 11.3-inch center touchscreen and 11-inch driver display, Google built-in. Available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance. New X76 electric drive unit (10th GM EV to use it), 210 hp, 65 kWh LFP battery, peak DC charging 150 kW+ (10-80% in ~25 min). EPA-estimated 255-262 miles of range depending on trim.","href":"https://carmodelspecs.com/release-dates/2027/chevrolet/bolt"},{"key":"chevrolet-equinox-2027","date":"2026-09-06","what":"CVT automatic (FWD models) is retired; all Equinox configurations (FWD and AWD) now share the same GM 8-speed automatic (RPO code MGH). Eliminating the CVT removes its 184 lb-ft torque ceiling: FWD models now make the same 203 lb-ft as AWD models (same 175 hp 1.5L turbo-four, unchanged). GM Authority expects (not yet confirmed) FWD towing capacity to rise from 800 lb to the AWD-equivalent 1,500 lb as a result of the transmission change. New paint color Autumn Harvest Metallic (GTJ) replaces the discontinued Cacti Green.","href":"https://carmodelspecs.com/release-dates/2027/chevrolet/equinox"},{"key":"chevrolet-silverado-2027","date":"2026-09-06","what":"Fully redesigned exterior and interior: new LED headlights/taillights, more pronounced wheel-opening moldings and rocker treatments, standard dual exhaust on Custom and above. Seven-trim lineup: Work Truck, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, Silverado (new: replaces LT), Silverado Trail Boss, ZR2, High Country. Three lifted trims (ZR2, Trail Boss, Custom Trail Boss) in response to demand. Standard 16.3-inch center display and 12.2-inch driver information center across the whole lineup; ZR2 and High Country add an 11.5-inch front passenger screen, Head-Up Display and rear camera mirror, for 60+ combined diagonal inches of display. Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance now offers segment-exclusive trailering support. Two next-generation Gen 6 Small Block V8s (5.7L replacing the 355 hp 5.3L L84; 6.6L replacing the 420 hp 6.2L L87): GM states these deliver 'the most powerful naturally-aspirated V8 in its class' but has not published hp/torque figures yet. Enhanced 2.7L TurboMax turbo-4 (currently 310 hp/430 lb-ft in L3B form) paired with a 10-speed automatic for the first time; GM states it will be 'enhanced' without publishing a figure. Segment-exclusive Duramax 3.0L I6 turbo-diesel continues; GM Authority reports (unconfirmed) a range variant capable of up to 1,000 miles on one tank. Only one transmission offered across the lineup: the 10-speed automatic (previously multiple transmissions depending on engine/trim). Engine RPO codes reported: TurboMax 2.7L I4 becomes L4B (replacing L3B); new V8s are 5.7L L76 and 6.6L L78 (replacing 5.3L L84 and 6.2L L87); Duramax 3.0L I6 LZ0 carries over.
