The new 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD delivers impressive towing power-up to 22,500 lbs with its available 6.6-liter Duramax Turbo-Diesel V8 engine. That engine pairs with a durable Allison 10-speed automatic transmission to handle heavy loads smoothly, even under tough conditions.

If you're tackling the most demanding hauling jobs, the ZR2 model takes capability further with specialized off-road features including a 1.5-inch suspension lift and Multimatic DSSV dampers that enhance stability.
