Here’s an in-depth look at the features that make the Silverado 3500 the ultimate choice for those who need next-level towing capabilities.
Powertrain Performance
The engine options in the 2025 Silverado 3500 provide incredible performance, giving you the confidence to tackle any task:
- 6.6L V8 Engine: This standard gas-powered engine delivers 401 hp and 464 lb-ft of torque, ideal for towing and hauling needs. Paired with a 10-speed Allison automatic transmission, it provides smooth acceleration even under heavy loads, making it a great choice for drivers who need reliable power for work or play.
- 6.6L Duramax Turbo-Diesel V8 Engine: For maximum towing power, the Duramax diesel engine offers an impressive 470 hp and 975 lb-ft of torque. Designed to tackle steep inclines and heavy trailers with ease, this powerhouse, combined with the Allison 10-speed automatic transmission, ensures sustained power at low speeds, providing stability even with large trailers.
Both options are available in rear or four-wheel drive, with a choice of single or dual rear wheels, making it easy to find the perfect setup to meet your needs around Lake Wales and beyond.
Exceptional Towing Capacity
Equipped with the Duramax diesel engine, the 2025 Silverado 3500 can tow up to an impressive 36,000 pounds, placing it among the top heavy-duty trucks for towing capabilities. Even the gas V8 engine offers substantial power, towing up to 19,080 pounds, ideal for various tasks. For maximum payload capacity, opt for the gas V8 in a regular cab with dual rear wheels, which allows you to haul up to 7,234 pounds.
Advanced Trailering Technology
Chevrolet has outfitted the Silverado 3500 with advanced trailering technology to enhance safety and ease of use, even for new towing drivers:
- Advanced Trailering System: Access real-time trailer information, pre-departure checklists, trailer tire pressure and temperature, and maintenance reminders, all through the Chevy Infotainment 3 system, making it easier to manage your trailer.
- 15 Camera Views: This includes Hitch View for easy attachment, and Transparent Trailer View, which allows you to see behind the trailer, especially useful in tight spots or heavy traffic.
- Trailer Sway Control: Sensors detect when the trailer begins to sway and automatically apply the brakes for added stability.
- Integrated Trailer Brake Controller: Adjust the brake force to ensure smoother stops, especially when carrying heavy or uneven loads.
- Jackknife Alert: Sensors monitor the angle between the truck and trailer to help prevent jackknifing, alerting you to take corrective action.
Built for Heavy-Duty Performance
With a high-strength steel frame, durable suspension, and an available dual-rear-wheel configuration, the Silverado 3500 is designed to handle serious towing and hauling. The dual rear wheels provide increased stability and weight distribution, especially valuable for fifth-wheel trailers and maximum payloads. The Gooseneck/5th Wheel Prep Package makes it easy to install a hitch, maximizing towing capability and control for heavy loads.
Braking is also enhanced with heavy-duty brakes, ensuring control on steep inclines and reliable stopping power for sudden halts, so you can drive with confidence, even on challenging roads.
