What Changed

The Silverado 1500 Crew Cab adds a two-mode hybrid model. Hybrid models feature a 6.0L V8 coupled to GM's two-mode hybrid system. The two-mode hybrid system consists of an electrically variable transmission and nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The Silverado Hybrid is a full hybrid running purely on electric power during certain operating conditions. A new XFE model aims to improve the fuel efficiency. The XFE model features a lowered suspension and soft tonneau cover to improve aerodynamics, while aluminum lower control arms and wheels reduce mass. Low rolling resistance tires are also equipped. As a result, fuel efficiency increases by 1 MPG.
