Detailed review and test of the 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD, including driving, interior, price, towing and more.
The largest vehicle you can drive on a car licence, the Chevy Silverado 2500 Heavy Duty, has just been facelifted for a mid-2024 update.
Fresh enhancements include bolder front-end styling and a retuning of the monstrous Duramax 6.6-litre turbo-diesel V8 engine, which offers 350kW and a whopping 1322Nm.
Available in a single high-spec grade from $163,000 before on-roads, the big Chevy can tow up 4500kg (with a road licence) and offers a host of bespoke features and tech to bolster its impressive towing capabilities.
Huge, comfy and luxurious, we find out whether the massive 6.4-metre behemoth truly is the king of the open road.

I just purchased one absolutely amazing lovely to drive

These are bang for buck if youre intending on towing. Isuzu Trucks with the All Terrain Warrior upgrades are between 150k - 200k Likewise with Canter, Iveco and Hino. They have more carrying capacity than a 200-300 series Cruisers and Y62 Patrol and price for that matter and of course the top branded utes we have here. Definitely a win for the Chev 2500!

Absolutely love the vehicle . I exhibit at most the the Agricultural field days across Australia and I’ve spoken to plenty of owners already . I hear Nothing but praise for this beast. The first thing most will say to me is : Don’t buy a RAM … Buy one of these .

@robguz1007 you know I'll have to park across 3 parking spots and hopefully taking up a handicapped parking spots too. I personally don't mind these cars,I'll never own one myself but geez these cars attract a certain kind of operator.

Would be good to see standard testing info like 0-100 and 80-120 overtaking. Also your camera man needs to actually filming the things you’re talking about with the storage section. Looking at the storage bin lid shows the viewer nothing

@acde9355 2 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing. I reckon this big truck has a better value for money than the Toyota LC300. Why? Because this truck offers a bus's engine!!!

@GR8Tmate 2 месяца назад

I can think of a few dozen reasons why it’s not better than a LC300. 1. Reliability 2. Warranty 3. Servicing Cost 4. Insurance cost 5. Availability of parts especially outback 6. Ease of parking 7. Ease of Driving 8. Ease to walk around 9. Availability of aftermarket products LAST BUT NOT LEAST - RESALE VALUE. No thanks Chevy 🤮

It's absolutely a towing weapon, but at $170k you can buy a hilux/ranger and an around-town car and a little boat and campground fees and diesel and a ton of beers for a year.

@bn8535 when your doing nearly 2000km a week the truck is hard on the body over time I have run the 4wd light rigid for years but now have permanent medical issues but the ram changed everything and the isuzu 4wd almost same price as 3500 ram horses for courses the 3500 does everything I need

@rich7447 Месяц назад

@@bn8535 My 24 F450 King Ranch was only the equivalent of $150,000 AUD in the US ($98k US). I'm guessing that the conversion costs and taxes have a lot to do with the price of the 2500HDs in Australia.

@Jon651 29 дней назад

I am excited to see that Australia is finally getting into "serious" US pick-up trucks, but I think you are missing out by not getting to use all of the ability this truck has to offer. For example, in the US the Silverado 2500HD has an available option called the "Max Towing Package", which actually outfits the truck with a 1-ton (3500HD) frame, suspension and running gear for even more capacity/capability. Imagine being able to tow a 9000+ kg on the hitch or 10,000kg on a gooseneck/5th-wheel hitch in the bed with this truck...

are you jelous that you don't have a large caravan? I;ll give you a tip, that's not even a large caravan. BTW I have a GMC 3500 (which is even bigger than the Silverado) and tow a 38 foot 5th wheel.

When you’re hauling ass across the U.S. towing upwards of a 20,000 lb. fifth wheel nothing else can handle it. Whether it be GM, Ford, or RAM. I’ve owned them all and it’s just personal preference as all get it done.

@rich7447 Месяц назад

@@GAlan-nn6mu Absolutely correct. Each manufacturers offering has their pros and cons, but there isn't a bad truck among them. I recently moved from Ram to Ford specifically because Ford was the only one offering a wide track front end in a pickup.
