What makes the 2025 Chevy Silverado 1500 one of the best-selling pickups on the market? From the high-tech Infotainment system to the powerful TurboMax and Duramax Turbo-Diesel engines, we’re breaking down six things drivers love about the Silverado 1500.
1. Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System
The Silverado 1500 comes with a 7-inch Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system that includes SiriusXM satellite radio compatibility, AM/FM radio, and wireless smartphone integration. SiriusXM offers everything you could ask for in terms of entertainment, with hundreds of music, sports, and news stations to choose from. If you’re looking for local stations, the Silverado’s Infotainment system also offers traditional AM/FM radio.
With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, you can use your Infotainment system to connect a compatible smartphone to the truck. Using Bluetooth technology and voice command pass-through, you can make hands-free phone calls or send text messages while you’re driving. You can also use the color touchscreen to scroll through your contacts or access certain phone apps.
2. Under-Seat Storage
There’s no lack of storage space inside the Chevy Silverado 1500 thanks to the under-seat storage compartment. Located beneath the front bench seat, the under-seat cargo area makes the perfect space to store small tools and other everyday essentials. There’s also an available under-seat storage compartment for the back seat on higher Silverado 1500 trims.
3. Durabed
Hauling heavy materials is a breeze with the Chevy Silverado 1500 high-strength Durabed. The Chevrolet Durabed is made with roll-formed steel that stands up to abrasive materials like gravel without so much as a scratch! The Silverado’s truck bed also comes with twelve cargo tie-downs for securing items in place.
4. Chevy Safety Assist
Chevy Safety Assist is an important safety feature that monitors your surroundings and alerts you to dangerous situations before an accident occurs. The Chevy Safety Assist package includes Lane Keep Assist, Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Following Distance Indicator, and more.
5. TurboMax Engine

6. 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel Engine
Some drivers have more extreme towing needs, which is where the 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel comes in handy. This available engine is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and yields an impressive 305 HP at 3750 rpm and 495 lb.-ft. of torque at 2750 rpm.
