Which Chevy Truck is Right for Me?
Chevrolet builds some of the most popular, most capable trucks in America and they range from the mid-size Chevy Colorado to the full-size Silverado 1500 to the heavy-duty Silverado 2500 HD. These trucks offer a variety of engines, horsepower options, towing, payload, and off-road capabilities. To help you decide which Chevy truck is right for you, here's a comparison of the new Chevy trucks that are available at Leo Martin Chevrolet in Lake Jackson, TX.
The Chevy Silverado 1500
The Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup for 2025 has several trim levels available, including the WT, RST, LT, the off-road LT Trail Boss, the LTZ, High Country, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, and the off-road ZR2. The Silverado 1500 can come in a variety of bed lengths, cab configurations, and engines. It's available with off-road performance features and you can upgrade to get your choice of technology features and even luxury options.
Engines and performance in the Chevy Silverado 1500
The Chevy Silverado 1500 lets Angleton, TX buyers select from engines that start with a 2.7-liter Turbo Max four-cylinder that develops 310 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. Next up is a 5.3-liter V8 with 355 horsepower, followed by a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 horsepower. For maximum torque, Chevy offers Bay City, TX drivers a 3.0-liter Duramax® turbodiesel inline six-cylinder that delivers 460 pound-feet. The maximum towing capacity is 13,300 pounds with the 6.2-liter V8 and the maximum payload capacity is 2,280 pounds.
The Chevy Silverado 2500 HD
There's a lot to love about the 2025 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD, including advanced features that help you tackle major league jobs. One example is the Transparent Trailer that employs multiple cameras to provide a blended image of what's behind your Silverado 2500 as if the trailer weren't even there. This groundbreaking Chevy system works with gooseneck and fifth-wheel trailers. The Chevy Silverado 2500 HD offers Freeport, TX buyers an available 6.6-liter Duramax® turbodiesel V8 engine that generates 470 horsepower and 975 pound-feet of torque. The maximum towing capacity is greater than before and is now 22,500 pounds.
The Chevy Colorado
The Chevy Colorado has earned recognition as the MotorTrend Truck of the Year. One reason for the accolades is that the Colorado has upgraded its off-road capability. Models like the Colorado Trail Boss and the Z71 are equipped with off-road equipment like large all-terrain tires along with a limited-slip rear differential. Perhaps the most impressive accomplishment is that the Colorado delivers more available towing capacity than any other truck in its class, pulling up to 7,700 pounds on Richwood, TX construction sites.
The Chevy Silverado EV
The coming Chevy Silverado EV will reportedly offer a Standard Range battery along with a new mid-range LT model with an Extended Range battery pack. If a Sweeny, TX buyer pays to have a Level 2 charger installed in his garage, it will take about eight to 10 hours to bring the Silverado EV to a full charge. Towing capacity is less than the gas-powered Silverado 1500, maxing out at 12,500 pounds. Prices for the Silverado EV are about $20,000 to almost $30,000 more than the Chevy Silverado 1500 powered by gas.
