Chevrolet Unveils the 2019 Silverado 4500HD, 5500HD and 6500HD

• All-New Silverado conventional cabs will be the most customer-focused medium-duty trucks of any major competitor
• Easy to upfit: Clean, one-piece straight frame rails, seven Cab-to-Axle options
• Easy to drive: Excellent maneuverability, factory air suspension
• Easy to service: Lightweight clamshell hood allows “walk up” access to engine

Chevrolet revealed its first-ever Silverado Class 4, 5 and 6 chassis cab trucks today at NTEA The Work Truck Show – three supremely capable conventional cab models will be the most customer-focused trucks of any major competitor.

“Chevy’s designers and engineers were obsessed with making this Silverado the most customer-focused medium duty truck of any major competitor,” said Ed Peper, U.S. vice president, GM Fleet. “By customer-focused, I mean work-ready trucks that are easy to upfit, easy to drive, easy to service and easy to own.”

The Trucks Dealers, Customers and Upfitters Asked For
The input of fleet managers, truck drivers, upfitters, technicians and Chevrolet dealers drove the development of the new Silverados.

“It’s not just numbers on a spec sheet that make us different and better,” said John Schwegman, director of Commercial Product and Medium Duty at GM Fleet. “These new Silverados are designed to solve the most common upfit and ownership challenges fleets have with many of today’s medium duty trucks.”
