The Silverado HD’s entire steering wheel hub sounds the horn, facilitating hitting the horn in an emergency.
The Silverado HD (except WT) offers a remote vehicle starting system, so the vehicle can be started from inside the driver's house. This allows the driver to comfortably warm up the engine before going out to the vehicle. The climate system will also automatically heat or cool the interior.
The engine computer on the Silverado HD automatically engages the starter until the car starts with one twist of the key and disables the starter while the engine is running. Without this feature the starter can be accidentally engaged while the engine is running, making a grinding noise and possibly damaging the starter and ring gear.
The Silverado HD’s standard tilting steering column adjusts to different sized drivers and makes entering and exiting easier.
To help each driver find a more comfortable driving position, the Silverado HD (except WT/Custom) offers a telescoping steering wheel. Much better than just a tilt steering wheel or adjustable seat, this allows a short driver to sit further from the steering wheel while maintaining contact with the pedals.
When two different drivers share the Silverado HD ZR2/LTZ/High Country, the memory seats and mirrors make it convenient for both. Each setting activates different, customized memories for the driver’s seat position and outside mirror angle.
The Silverado HD ZR2/LTZ/High Country’s standard easy entry system glides the driver’s seat back when the door is unlocked or the ignition is switched off, making it easier for the driver to get in and out.
The Silverado HD’s instruments include an oil pressure gauge and a temperature gauge - which could save your engine! Often ‘idiot lights’ don’t warn you until damage has been done.
The Silverado HD (except WT/Custom/LT) offers an available heads-up display that projects speed, warning, navigation instruction, infotainment and driver assistance information readouts in front of the driver’s line of sight, allowing drivers to view information without diverting their eyes from the road.
The Silverado HD’s power parking brake sets with one touch and releases with one touch or automatically.
The Silverado HD’s standard power windows allow the driver or passenger to lower and raise the windows without leaning over or being distracted.
The Silverado HD’s standard power windows have a locking feature to keep children in the rear seat from operating them, but the driver can still raise and lower all of them with the lock engaged.
The Silverado HD’s standard front and rear power windows all open fully with one touch of the switches and its driver’s window also automatically closes, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside the car.
The Silverado HD’s standard power window controls are mounted on the armrest for easy access.
On a hot day the Silverado HD’s driver can lower all the windows from a distance using the keyless remote.
The Silverado HD’s standard power locks allow the driver or passenger to lock or unlock all the doors at a touch without leaning over.
The Silverado HD’s power locks have a lockout prevention feature. When the key is in the ignition or smart key is in the passenger compartment and the driver’s door is open, the locks unlock every time you lock them.
The Silverado HD’s standard doors lock when the transmission is engaged. This is an important feature for occupant safety. Locked doors are proven to open less often in collisions, and they are also effective in preventing crime at traffic lights.
Push Button Start standard on the Silverado HD allows you to start the engine without removing the key from the pocket or purse. The Silverado HD LT/ZR2/LTZ/High Country’s available Keyless Open and Start also allows you to unlock the doors from either front outside door handle and unlock the tailgate.
The Silverado HD’s power window, power lock, power mirror and cruise control switches are lit from behind, making them plainly visible and easier to operate at night.
The Silverado HD’s standard variable intermittent wipers have an adjustable delay to allow the driver to choose a setting that best clears the windshield during light rain or mist. The Silverado HD ZR2/LTZ/High Country’s standard wipers adjust their speed and turn on and off automatically according to the amount of rainfall on the windshield.
The Silverado HD’s optional LED headlights produce a whiter, brighter light (up to 3x) using five times less power than halogen headlights. LED lights also light instantly and last over twenty times longer than halogen.
The Silverado HD has a standard automatic headlight on/off feature. When the ignition is on, the headlights automatically turn on at dusk and off after dawn.
While driving with high beams on, sensitive light sensors standard on the Silverado HD detect other vehicles which could be blinded and automatically switch to low beams.
The Silverado HD’s standard side window demisters help clear frost or condensation from the side windows in the winter. Without side window demisters the driver may have to wipe the windows from the outside to gain side vision.
To shield the driver and front passenger’s vision over a larger portion of the windshield and side windows, the Silverado HD has standard extendable sun visors.
The Silverado HD’s sun-visors swivel front-to-side to block glare from the side windows.
The Silverado HD offers optional power remote mirrors. Without a remote driver side or passenger side mirror, the driver will have to roll down the windows and reach across the car to adjust the mirrors.
The Silverado HD’s optional outside mirrors include heating elements to clear off the mirrors for better visibility.
The Silverado HD’s optional power mirror controls are mounted on the armrest for easy access.
When the Silverado HD ZR2/LTZ/High Country is put in reverse, both rearview mirrors tilt from their original position. This gives the driver a better view of the curb during parallel parking maneuvers. Shifting out of reverse puts the mirrors into their original positions.
The Silverado HD’s optional rear and side view mirrors have an automatic dimming feature. These mirrors can be set to automatically darken quickly when headlights shine on them, keeping following vehicles from blinding or distracting the driver.
Unlike fixed side view mirrors, the Chevrolet Silverado HD offers optional power folding mirrors that offer unparalleled convenience while maneuvering in tight places or parked. With the mirrors folded it’s easier to walk past and help prevent parking damage. The mirrors can be quickly unfolded when the driver is ready to leave. Manual folding mirrors are standard.
The Silverado HD (except WT/Custom) offers optional heated front and rear seats (rear heaters not available on WT/Custom/LT) extremely comfortable in the winter.
Optional air-conditioned seats in the Silverado HD (except WT/Custom/LT) keep the driver and front passenger comfortable and take the sting out of hot seats in Summer.
On extremely cold winter days, the Silverado HD’s optional (except WT/Custom) heated steering wheel provides comfort, allowing the driver to steer safely and comfortably before the vehicle heater warms up.
The Silverado HD has a standard center folding armrest for the driver and front passenger. A center armrest helps combat driver fatigue.
The Silverado HD offers an optional center folding armrest for the rear passengers. A center armrest helps make rear passengers more comfortable and it can provide a boundary between children.
The Silverado HD (except W/T/Custom)’s optional dual zone air conditioning allows the driver and front passenger to choose two completely different temperatures so people with different temperature preferences won’t have to compromise. This makes both the driver and front passenger as comfortable as possible.
The Silverado HD (except W/T/Custom)’s optional automatic temperature control maintains the temperature you set, automatically controlling fan speed, vents and temperature to maintain a consistent, comfortable environment.
For greater rear passenger comfort, the Silverado HD Double Cab/Crew Cab has standard rear a/c vents to keep rear occupants more comfortable.
A built-in pollen filter removes pollen, exhaust fumes and other pollutants from the Silverado HD’s passenger compartment. This helps prevent lung and/or sinus irritation that can trigger allergies or asthma.
To keep a safe, consistent following distance, the Silverado HD offers an optional Adaptive Cruise Control, which alters the speed of the vehicle without driver intervention. This allows the driver to use cruise control more safely without constantly having to disengage it when approaching slower traffic.
To help keep the driver’s hands on the wheel, the Silverado HD LT/ZR2/LTZ/High Country has standard steering wheel controls for the radio.
Standard smartphone integration for the Silverado HD allows the driver and passengers access to select programs on their smartphones, including reading text messages aloud, playing internet radio stations and other connected activities without taking their eyes off the road or their hands from the wheel.
To direct the driver from any location to a given street address, a GPS navigation system is standard on the Silverado HD LT/ZR2/LTZ/High Country.

With standard voice command, the Silverado HD LT/ZR2/LTZ/High Country offers the driver hands free control of the radio, climate controls and the navigation computer by simply speaking.
The Chevrolet Silverado HD (except WT/Custom) eliminates the need for separate garage door openers and associated risks of losing, breaking, or having dead batteries with its optional integrated Homelink® universal remote controlled from the overhead console.
The Silverado HD is equipped with both FM and AM stereo radios, offering access to more content and better coverage. With AM radio, you can enjoy a wider variety of stations featuring news, talk shows, sports commentary, native language programing, automated traffic guidance, and emergency broadcasts. AM waves travel further and penetrate buildings and obstacles more effectively than FM signals, especially at night. Having both FM and AM stereo radios the Silverado HD offers a more comprehensive listening experience compared to only FM.
Compared to traditional radio, the Chevrolet Silverado HD Custom/LT/ZR2/LTZ/High Country equipped with standard SiriusXM satellite radio provides an unmatched listening experience. Its extensive coverage guarantees consistent, crystal-clear reception across the continental U.S., and access to over 100 channels dedicated to a multitude of genres, including music, news, sports, talk shows, and comedy, many with only limited commercial breaks.
Bluetooth wireless connectivity is standard on the Silverado HD, connecting the driver and passenger’s cell phones to the vehicle systems. This allows them to use the vehicle’s stereo and hand controls to place calls safely and easily.
The Silverado HD offers an optional 115-volt a/c outlet in the cargo area, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced.
