These characteristics pair effortlessly with Chevrolet’s stellar reputation for building reliable, long-lasting trucks to create the perfect workhorse in the Silverado. 

With a strong work ethic and a healthy penchant for adventure, the 2024 Silverado 1500 is ready for anything. From extending the Duramax’s availability to rebranding the 2.7L High-Output as the TurboMax, Chevrolet makes several updates to the Silverado in 2024. You’ll find more design options in the Midnight Edition and Blackout Appearance packages, along with more safety, driver assist, and connectivity features that add to the truck’s value and versatility. 

Most notably, Chevrolet designs the Silverado with a diverse trim lineup that offers broad appeal. The trims have distinct personalities and offer a progressive lineup of features from the WT, Custom, and Custom Trail Boss to the LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, ZR2, LTZ, and High Country. Here’s a closer look at those trims, their defining characteristics, and what you can expect from the best-selling 2024 Silverado. 

The Work Truck: Meet the Silverado WT (Starts at $38,795^[a])

Chevrolet is renowned for building versatile and reliable vehicles that improve our lives behind the wheel. The 2024 Silverado WT is an excellent example of this approach because it offers the capability expected of a full-size truck with plenty of features that make it budget-friendly and perfect for most jobs. For example, the WT is equipped with the revolutionary Durabed that offers class-leading cargo room with 12 standard tie-downs for extended functionality. Accessing that cargo is easy with the CornerStep integrated into the rear bumper, with more cargo storage available in the cabin courtesy of the 40/20/40 split-folding front bench. Technologies and conveniences are also plentiful and include the Chevy Safety Assist suite and remote keyless entry. 

Budget-Savvy and Well-Equipped: Meet the Silverado Custom (Starts at $45,595^[a])

Where the Silverado WT is designed as a basic work truck, the Custom offers more comfort, styling cues, and features. For example, you’ll still reap the rewards of the Chevy Safety Assist suite and the versatile storage of the 40/20/40 split-folding front bench. However, Chevrolet adds a ten-way power driver’s seat with lumbar control for optimal support and comfort. The Custom is also more potent and better equipped to tow and carry heavy loads with its TurboMax engine, Tow Package, and EZ-Lift Power Locking Tailgate. 

The Feature-Rich Workhorse: Meet the Silverado LT (Starts at $49,995^[a])

Climbing the Silverado’s family tree in 2024 means enjoying more features in trims like the LT. The Silverado LT includes standards like the Chevy Safety Assist suite and the ten-way power driver’s seat but adds more value by including advanced technologies, design elements, and optional features. For example, the Silverado LT is instantly distinguishable by its LED headlights and daytime running lights, with Chevrolet also giving you the option to add larger, 20-inch painted wheels. Inside, the Silverado LT is also well-equipped and tech-savvy with its 13.4-inch center touchscreen and 12.3-inch Driver Information Center. 

The Athlete: Meet the Silverado RST (Starts at $54,295^[a])

Are you looking for a truck to satiate your penchant for performance? The 2024 Silverado RST is up for the task and even looks the part with its body-color accents and optional 20-inch high-gloss black wheels. Inside, you’ll find the Silverado RST shares the same features as the Silverado LT but differentiates itself by the roar of its engine, courtesy of a sport mode-active exhaust that promises plenty of excitement behind the wheel. It also includes four-wheel drive as standard equipment.

The Entry-Level Trail Runner: Meet the Silverado Custom Trail Boss (Starts at $53,795^[a])

If you’re looking to test your skills on the trail but still need the versatility of a truck, look no further than the Silverado Custom Trail Boss. Chevrolet designs the Custom Trail Boss as a budget-friendly trail runner that can do double duty as a weekday work partner and weekend adventurer. It rolls off the factory floor with a factory-fitted suspension lift, the Z71 off-road package, a self-locking rear differential, an underbody skid plate, and a two-speed Autotrac transfer case. It also looks the part of a rugged road warrior, with its retractable electric running boards, raised front with black insert, and 18-inch higgh-gloss black-painted wheels and mud tires. 

A Touch of Luxury: Meet the Silverado LTZ (Starts at $59,195^[a]) 

The 2024 Silverado LTZ introduces more luxury to the best-selling workhorse, proving you don’t have to compromise your comfort. The LTZ shares many features with the lower-tier trims, like the 13.4-inch center touchscreen, 12.3-inch Driver Information Center, and Chevy Safety Assist. However, Chevrolet adds more luxury by finishing the front seats in perforated leather and stylistically differentiating the LTZ with 20-inch painted aluminum wheels. You’ll also enjoy other advanced safety and driver-assist technologies, including an eight-camera system with up to 14 unique views around the truck.

The Mid-Tier Adventurer: Meet the Silverado LT Trail Boss (Starts at $62,410^[a])

If the Silverado Custom Trail Boss is the entry-level trail runner, the LT Trail Boss is the next step before the legendary Silverado ZR2. The LT Traill Boss offers all-terrain confidence with its two-inch suspension lift, two-speed Autotrac transfer case, self-locking rear differential, and the Z71 Off-Road package. It’s better-equipped than the Custom Trail Boss in terms of technology since it rolls off Chevrolet’s production line with a 13.4-inch center touchscreen display and a 12.3-inch Driver Information Center. 

The Opulent Chariot: Meet the Silverado High Country (Starts at $64,695^[a])

Chevrolet is well-known for building value-packed trucks with innovative technologies, premium features, plenty of comforts, and exceptional capability. These characteristics take center stage in the 2024 Silverado High Country, the truck’s top-tier trim. The High Country is outfitted with extensive digital displays and the Chevy Safety Assist suite, but you’ll find even more awaits when you climb in the driver’s seat. Chevrolet outfits the High Country with premium leather seating, exclusive perforation, and stitching details. It also features authentic wood details throughout the cabin and plenty of cutting-edge technologies, including the industry’s first true hands-free driver-assist technology, Super Cruise, with trailering compatibility. 

The Ultimate Adventurer: Meet the Silverado ZR2 (Starts at $71,895^[a])

You won’t find a more adventurous trim in the Silverado lineup than the ZR2. The 2024 Silverado ZR2 lives up to its reputation as Chevrolet’s on- and off-road adventurer. It rolls off the production lineup with a high-strength front bumper, expansive underbody aluminum skidplates, 33-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory Mud tires, and Multimatic DSSV shock absorbers with front and rear electric locking differentials to heighten the truck’s agility and maneuverability. It’s an incredible combination that Chevrolet complements with expansive digital displays, the Chevy Safety Assist suite, and advanced safety and driver-assist technologies to ensure you get the most from every experience on the road. 

Choosing the Perfect Silverado Trim

Chevrolet goes above and beyond to give drivers plenty of options with the Silverado’s 2024 trim lineup. Each trim has a distinct personality, whether you’re shopping for a budget-friendly workhorse like the Silverado WT or want to venture off the pavement in a legend like the Silverado ZR2.
