2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 Prices: $38,600 Work Truck to $77,200 ZR2
Every trim climbs by $1,200 to $8,800 over its 2026 equivalent — except one that holds flat — but big screens, adaptive cruise, and a 10-speed automatic go standard across the range.
Chevrolet has put official prices on the redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500, and the ladder runs from $38,600 for the Work Truck to $77,200 for the ZR2, before destination. The next-generation pickup goes on sale in late 2026, and every one of its seven trims costs more than the truck it replaces — with one notable exception.
Here is the full lineup as Chevrolet lists it, with the change against the equivalent 2026 model calculated from the company's own current pricing:
- Work Truck (WT) — $38,600, up $1,700
- Custom — $43,600, up $1,200
- Silverado — $47,900, exactly what today's LT costs
- Custom Trail Boss — $54,400, up $1,500
- Trail Boss — $61,200, up $1,500 over the LT Trail Boss
- High Country — $71,700, up $8,800
- ZR2 — $77,200, up $5,400
The walk is tighter than before, too. The 2026 truck's nine trims shrink to seven: the RST and LTZ are gone, and the volume LT is now called simply Silverado. Chevrolet expects the four trims below $60,000 — WT, Custom, Silverado, and Custom Trail Boss — to carry most sales.
All figures exclude destination, and Chevrolet hasn't published the freight charge for the new truck. AutoGuide puts it at $2,795, unchanged from the 2026 Silverado, which would move the real entry price above $41,000.
Where the Extra Money Goes
Chevrolet's case for the higher stickers is a longer standard-equipment list. Every 2027 Silverado gets a 12.2-inch digital instrument cluster, a 16.3-inch center touchscreen running the company's new interface, LED lighting at both ends, and what Chevrolet counts as more than 15 standard safety and driver-assistance features. The company says the roster includes adaptive cruise control, enhanced automatic emergency braking, front and rear park assist, and the Safety Alert Seat.
The cheap seats gain the most. The Work Truck and Custom trade last year's eight-speed automatic for the 10-speed that now backs every engine, and Chevrolet says both get a 12,000-pound hitch with a factory-integrated trailer brake controller. At the other end, Super Cruise hands-free driving becomes standard on the High Country and the ZR2 that made its debut at the Vegas to Reno race — it was a paid option on the 2026 High Country and not offered on the ZR2 at all, which accounts for a chunk of the High Country's $8,800 jump.
Power comes from four engines: the enhanced 2.7-liter TurboMax four, the 3.0-liter Duramax diesel, and the new sixth-generation small-block V8s of 5.7 and 6.6 liters. Chevrolet quotes up to 481 hp and 501 lb-ft of torque, plus a best-in-class 13,700-pound maximum tow rating.
Rivals' public prices help explain the positioning. Ram lists the 2026 1500 from $42,400 before destination for the Express, the cheapest trim it currently advertises — $3,800 above the new Silverado's entry sticker.
What Chevrolet hasn't said: the destination charge, on-sale timing firmer than "late 2026," and pricing for the mechanically related GMC Sierra 1500, which should follow shortly. Order books open later this year.
