Introduction

Vehicle Highlights
The 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 lineup gains an available gas/electric hybrid model, a new top-line engine, a 6-speed automatic transmission, and some new features. This large pickup truck offers regular-, extended-, and crew-cab body styles. It shares its basic design with the GMC Sierra 1500. Extended cabs have rear-hinged doors that don't open independently of the fronts. Regular cabs can seat up to three passengers, while extendeds and crews can seat up to six. Three bed lengths are available: the 5.8-foot short bed; 6.6-foot standard bed; and 8.0-foot long bed. The 2009 Chevrolet Silverado offers two interiors, dubbed "pure pickup" and "luxury inspired." Available engines, depending on cab and bed configuration, are a 195-hp 4.3-liter V6; 295-hp 4.8-liter V8; 315-hp 5.3-liter V8; 367-hp 6.0-liter V8; and a new-for-2009 403-hp 6.2-liter V8. Certain versions of the 5.3-liter V8 and all 6.2 V8 engines can run on E85 ethanol-blended fuel. The 5.3 and 6.0 V8 engines come with GM's Active Fuel Management cylinder deactivation. V6, 4.8 V8, and some 5.3 V8 Silverados use a 4-speed automatic transmission. Available on the 5.3 V8 and standard on the 6.2 V8 is a 6-speed automatic. Some rear-drive Silverados equipped with the 5.3-liter V8 and 6-speed automatic can be equipped as the XFE, which stands for Xtra Fuel Economy. XFE has specific wheels and tires, along with other mechanical and aerodynamic treatments. GM claims an increase in fuel economy of up to 7 percent over non-XFE versions. Maximum towing capacity is 10,700 pounds.

The 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid has a 6.0-liter V8 that pairs with an electric motor for 332 hp total. It can run on one or both of its power sources, depending on driving demands, and requires no plug-in charging. The hybrid uses a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). The Hybrid's maximum towing capacity is 6100 pounds.
