2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD
A source-linked guide to the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD trim range, powertrain choices, drivetrain, seating and capability. The 2026 Silverado 2500HD is a distinct heavy-duty chassis from the light-duty Silverado 1500, not a higher trim of it: a separate frame rated for a much higher GVWR. The 6.6L gas V8 (401 hp) is standard, with the 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel V8 (470 hp, 975 lb-ft) available across the range and paired with an Allison 10-speed automatic. Key figures on record: Powertrain 6.6L V8 gas or 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel V8, Output 401 / 470 hp, Drivetrain RWD / 4WD, Seating 3 or 6, Maximum towing Up to 22,070 lb gooseneck / 20,000 lb conventional (properly equipped). The heavy-duty Silverado shares a nameplate with the light-duty Silverado 1500 but not a frame, so the 1500's engine lineup, output figures and towing capacity do not apply to it.
