The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD gives you two powerful engine choices. The standard 6.6L V8 gas engine delivers 401 horsepower and solid performance for most hauling tasks. If you want maximum power, the available DURAMAX 6.6L turbo-diesel V8 produces 470 horsepower and an impressive 975 lb-ft of torque-perfect for heavy-duty work. Both engines pair with a smooth automatic transmission (10-speed Allison with diesel) to ensure reliable performance whether you're navigating city streets or conquering demanding job sites. The diesel option especially shines for serious towing and payload work. To compare these engines in person and find which suits your needs best, contact Markquart Motors at (715) 833-0444 or browse our new Chevrolet inventory online.
