2027 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD
Gas and Duramax power with Regular, Double and Crew Cab choices.

The 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD gives South Jersey truck buyers a 412-horsepower gas V8 or an available 555-horsepower Duramax diesel, with Regular, Double and Crew Cab choices. The Allison automatic, electric power steering and electronic brake boost bring the powertrain and chassis together for equipment trailers, workday hauling and personal travel.
At Lucas Chevrolet, the same HD lineup spans WT, Custom, LT, LTZ, ZR2 and High Country. A crew-carrying truck for Cherry Hill, a bed-focused pickup for Burlington and a factory off-road ZR2 are distinct ways into the Silverado 2500 HD. The trim lineup makes those differences easier to see.
The gasoline V8 produces 412 horsepower and 472 lb-ft of torque. GM pairs it with an Allison 10-speed automatic, revised lubrication, an engine-mounted oil cooler and a digital oil-level display. For a pickup carrying tools between stops on Route 38, this is a gas-powered heavy-duty drivetrain with the same coordinated steering and braking approach as the diesel truck.
The Duramax makes 555 horsepower and 1,230 lb-ft of torque. Its compacted graphite iron block, forged rotating components, variable-geometry turbocharger and charge-cooling system support sustained work under load. Exhaust braking and transmission grade-braking strategies help manage downhill speed while reducing service-brake demand. The cab-specific towing ratings attach that performance to a named truck and hitch.
The gas engine and Duramax are HD powertrains. Their displacement and output belong to Silverado HD, while Silverado 1500 has its own engine lineup. That distinction matters when a truck purchase begins with the familiar Silverado name but finishes with a heavy-duty trailer or substantial bed load.
WT puts the work-truck equipment in reach: a front split-bench seat, rubberized-vinyl floor covering, a 7-inch touchscreen, power windows and locks, and an integrated trailer brake controller. Its 2WD and 4WD choices support different workday priorities.
Custom combines the HD platform with a style-focused position in the lineup and a choice of 2WD or 4WD. The available Trail Boss package brings off-road equipment to Custom, including 20-inch wheels with BFGoodrich all-terrain tires and Z71 hardware.
LT occupies the middle of the six-trim lineup and uses 4WD. Its place between Custom and the upper trims gives buyers another way to combine an HD drivetrain with their preferred cab, bed and equipment selections.
LTZ is a 4WD trim positioned toward premium appointments. The Silverado HD equipment range includes larger digital displays, heated and ventilated front seats and available trailering visibility systems; specific truck equipment appears on its vehicle listing.
ZR2 is the factory off-road branch of the 2500 HD range. A 1.5-inch lift, 35-inch mud-terrain tires, Multimatic DSSV dampers, rear electronic locker and aluminum skid plates put mechanical substance behind the badge.
High Country is the luxury-focused 4WD trim. It brings the top position in the Silverado HD lineup to buyers who want their heavy-duty pickup to serve as their main travel vehicle as well as their work truck.
Available 13.4-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch Driver Information Center displays put navigation, vehicle information and truck functions across two large screens. Google built-in is available with Google Gemini, subject to compatible equipment and service terms. The WT has its own 7-inch touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.
The trailering technology range includes up to 14 camera views, an in-vehicle trailering app and Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert. Those systems address different tasks: seeing a hitch connection, monitoring the trailer area and keeping trailer settings together. Equipment availability varies, and a camera view assists the driver rather than replacing mirrors or direct visibility.
Regular Cab seats up to three. Double Cab and Crew Cab each seat up to six with the appropriate front seat layout. The two rear-seat cab choices keep people and enclosed gear in the cabin, while the Regular Cab dedicates its body arrangement to a single seat row and long bed.
Crew Cab offers a 6-foot-9-inch or 8-foot box, with a 159-inch or 172-inch wheelbase respectively. Double Cab combines those same bed lengths with 149-inch or 162-inch wheelbases. These are different proportions, even when two trucks share an engine and trim name. The specifications tables keep the cab and bed combinations together.
Properly equipped, a 2027 Silverado 2500 HD Crew Cab 4WD with the 6-foot-9-inch bed, 8.3L Duramax and Max Trailering Package is rated for up to 20,000 lbs of conventional towing. With the required gooseneck hitch, the same published cab-and-bed category reaches up to 22,400 lbs of gooseneck trailering. Equipment, occupants and cargo affect a particular truck’s usable limits.
Payload and trailer capacity are separate. GM’s maximum payload for the Crew Cab 4WD short-bed category is 3,940 pounds with the 6.6L gas engine and the specified wheels. That gas-truck maximum is not the payload allowance of the diesel tow truck. The vehicle loading label supplies the figure for an pickup.

ZR2’s rear electronic locker, DSSV dampers and 35-inch mud-terrain tires address loose surfaces and uneven ground. Terrain Mode adds one-pedal off-road control in the four-wheel-drive high and low ranges. The available Trail Boss package offers a separate route to Z71 suspension, skid protection, an Autotrac two-speed transfer case and all-terrain tires.
The fleet WT equipment record includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, Lane Departure Warning and IntelliBeam. StabiliTrak incorporates traction control, electronic Trailer Sway Control and Hill Start Assist. These are assistance functions, and the driver remains responsible for operation.

Route 38 stop-and-go travel and longer I-295 runs put different demands on a daily work truck. Cabin layout, camera equipment and bed access affect both kinds of driving, while the engine and hitch equipment govern the loaded job. Our 2500 HD and 3500 HD comparison also covers the Chevrolet alternative with single- and dual-rear-wheel choices.
Chevrolet’s bumper-to-bumper limited warranty covers 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first, under the applicable terms. The vehicle-specific warranty booklet defines the coverage for its powertrain and use. The Chevrolet warranty information and our HD service page cover ownership support.

The Silverado 2500 HD pairs heavy-duty gas or diesel power with an Allison automatic, electric power steering and electronic brake boost. Cab, bed and drivetrain choices then shape the truck around its load and passengers. That combination gives the 2500 HD a different job from the light-duty Silverado 1500.
The 6.6L gas V8 makes 412 horsepower and 472 lb-ft, while the available 8.3L Duramax makes 555 horsepower and 1,230 lb-ft. Both use an Allison 10-speed automatic. The diesel also integrates exhaust braking with the transmission’s grade-braking strategies for work under load.
Electric steering and electronic brake boost work together through the truck’s driving modes. GM also specifies larger front rotors and four-piston front calipers. The steering, braking and powertrain work together in Tow/Haul mode, giving the truck a coordinated response instead of treating engine output as the whole towing experience.
Double Cab and Crew Cab both provide a rear seat and accommodate up to six people with the appropriate front seating layout. Regular Cab accommodates up to three in one row. The rear-seat cab choices each offer a 6-foot-9-inch bed or an 8-foot bed.
ZR2 is the factory off-road trim in the Silverado 2500 HD lineup. Its hardware includes a 1.5-inch lift, 35-inch mud-terrain tires, DSSV dampers, a rear electronic locker and aluminum skid plates. Terrain Mode adds controlled one-pedal off-road driving to that mechanical package.
Towing ratings belong to a complete truck and hitch arrangement, so engine choice alone does not set the limit. GM’s 2027 tables separate cab, drivetrain and bed categories and identify package requirements. Passengers, cargo and options also affect the usable capacity of the pickup.
Lucas Chevrolet serves South Jersey from 1622 Route 38 in Lumberton. The store’s Silverado 2500 inventory, finance department and trade form give Cherry Hill and Burlington buyers direct starting points for a purchase. Service appointments are available through the dealership’s service scheduling form.
The Crew Cab combines rear seating with the choice of two box lengths, while the HD lineup offers premium cabin and display equipment. That gives a household room for passengers alongside truck utility. LTZ and High Country occupy the premium end, and ZR2 adds a separate off-road focus.
