chevrolet Silverado Performance
- Differential: heavy-duty, automatic, locking rear (standard on LTZ models)
-
- When rear-wheel slippage is detected at lower speeds, the available GM segment-exclusive, automatic locking rear differential allows additional traction at lower speeds on snow, mud, and ice. If one of the rear wheels has traction while the other does not, the locking rear axle automatically sends power to the wheel with grip to move the vehicle.(1)
- Locking rear differential benefits include enhanced performance for on- and off-road driving and towing, full lockup for maximum drive power to both rear wheels, fully automatic engagement and speed-sensitive actuation, which provides axle lockup when one wheel spins faster than the other.
- 1 Based on 2007 GM Large Pickup segment and latest available competitive information.
- Engine: Vortec 6.0L V8 with 353 hp and 373 lb.-ft. of torque.
-
- This Vortec 6.0L V8 engine generates 353 hp at 5400 rpm and 373 lb.-ft. of torque at 4400 rpm.

-
- The new High Idle Switch increases engine RPM's while in the idle position. This helps reduce engine warm-up time in cold weather, maintains passenger compartment heating and cooling comfort and speeds up battery charging.
- Requires cruise control on WT models.
- Suspension Package: heavy-duty, Handling/Trailering.
-
- The Handling/Trailering Suspension Package features 46mm piston monotube shocks and a 34mm front stabilizer bar.
- Transfer case: electronic Autotrac with rotary controls; 4x4 only (standard on 4x4 LT and LTZ models)
-
- When you engage the automatic 4WD mode, the system detects wheel slippage and automatically transfers torque to the front wheels for enhanced traction and then returns to two-wheel drive as conditions warrant. You may also choose to engage 4WD on a full-time basis.
