Oshawa, Ontario (Thursday, October 11, 2018) – Chevrolet Canada is proud to announce that the new 2019 Silverado is larger, more capable and more fuel efficient, all while featuring a lower starting MSRP on high volume and high value models.

“Over the past 100 years, Chevrolet has built over 85 million trucks. During this time, we have developed a reputation for building trucks that have incredible performance and capability while offering excellent value,” said Doug Kenzie, national marketing manager, Chevrolet Trucks in Canada. “The next-generation Silverado builds on that foundation, offering more interior and cargo space, increased towing and payload capabilities, and a lower starting price on our highest volume trucks.”

The 2019 Silverado LT crew cab with a short box (4×4) has a MSRP that is $1,000 less than today’s truck, even with new standard equipment including an all-new 2.7L Turbo engine with 22 percent more torque than the 4.3L V-6 it replaces, an eight-speed automatic transmission, stop-start technology and active aero shutters.
