There’s a moment in every upgrade where the numbers either work… or they don’t. Your current vehicle plays a bigger role in that equation than most people expect. Handled properly, a trade-in isn’t just a step in the process. It’s leverage. At Team Chevrolet NV, that leverage can make the difference between settling and getting the Chevy you want, right here in Las Vegas. Start With Reality, Not Guesswork Before you arrive, it’s worth understanding roughly where your vehicle stands in the market. Online valuation tools give you a useful baseline. Year, mileage, condition, demand. It’s not exact, but it’s close enough to frame expectations properly. The key is walking in informed, not optimistic. Vehicles trade on condition and demand, not sentiment. For Las Vegas drivers, that clarity makes the conversation far more straightforward. more Read the rest of this entry » Presentation Still Counts More Than You Think A vehicle doesn’t need to be perfect. It does need to look cared for. A clean interior, a washed exterior, and the absence of clutter all signal something important. The car hasn’t been neglected. That matters during an appraisal. Service records help as well. Oil changes, tire rotations, scheduled maintenance. They tell a quiet story about how the vehicle has been treated, and that can support a stronger valuation. It’s a small effort that often pays back. The Paperwork Part That Speeds Everything Up This is where things either move quickly or stall. Bring what matters. Title or payoff information, a valid ID, and any extra keys or accessories. That’s usually enough to keep the process moving without interruption. If there’s still a loan on the vehicle, it isn’t a problem. It simply becomes part of the transaction, with equity rolling into the next purchase. Handled correctly, it’s seamless. Where the Numbers Start to Work in Your Favor Once your trade-in value is established, it becomes a tool. It can reduce the amount financed, lower monthly payments, or open the door to a better-equipped model. That’s where the real advantage sits. Looking at the lineup, there’s plenty to consider. Silverado for capability, Traverse and Tahoe for space, and newer options like the Equinox EV and Silverado EV if you’re thinking longer term. For buyers here in Las Vegas, that flexibility is what makes trading in worth doing properly. A Local Process That Doesn’t Need to Be Complicated At Team Chevrolet NV, the trade-in process is built to be clear and direct. No unnecessary steps, no drawn-out back and forth. Just a proper appraisal and a straightforward path into your next vehicle. You can even begin online, get a working estimate, and walk in already knowing roughly where you stand. From there, it’s simply about refining the numbers and choosing what comes next. The Smart Way to Move Forward A vehicle trade-in isn’t just about letting go of your current car. It’s about using it intelligently. Done right, it reduces cost, simplifies financing, and puts you in a stronger position when it’s time to upgrade. If you’re in Las Vegas, NV, Team Chevrolet NV gives you a clear place to start. Take a few minutes, get a value, and then come see how it translates in person. You can also schedule a test drive online and take the next step when you’re ready.

The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado HD doesn’t exist to make subtle statements. It exists to tow enormous loads through desert heat while looking mildly irritated by the entire experience. And honestly, that’s exactly what a heavy-duty truck should do. For buyers around Las Vegas, NV, where job sites, long highway pulls, and trailer duty are part of everyday life, the Silverado HD lineup continues to lean heavily into what matters most: power, durability, towing confidence, and enough trim flexibility to suit everyone from fleet managers to luxury-truck obsessives. Chevrolet Gives You Two Very Different Kinds of V8 Muscle The centerpiece of the 2026 Silverado HD lineup is its pair of available 6.6L V8 engines. Both are designed for serious work. They simply go about it differently. The standard gasoline 6.6L V8 produces 401 hp and 464 lbs. ft. of torque, making it an excellent fit for buyers who need strong towing and payload capability without stepping into diesel ownership. It’s smooth, predictable, and surprisingly refined for something built to haul construction equipment across Nevada. more Read the rest of this entry » Then there’s the 6.6L Duramax® Turbo-Diesel V8. This thing produces 470 hp and an absurd 975 lbs. ft. of torque through an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission. That’s not “quick for a truck.” That’s “capable of rotating the Earth backward slightly under load.”  And in real-world towing situations, that low-end torque matters. A lot. The Duramax® Is Built for Drivers Who Tow Like It’s a Full-Time Job The Duramax® diesel setup remains the heavy hitter in the Silverado HD family. Low-end torque delivery is immediate, smooth, and relentless, which makes towing large trailers feel far less dramatic than it otherwise should. Goosenecks, enclosed trailers, equipment haulers, RVs... the Duramax handles them with the sort of calm confidence usually associated with industrial machinery. The Allison® transmission deserves credit too. Under load, gear changes remain remarkably composed, even when climbing grades outside Las Vegas where temperatures and trailer weights both start testing your patience. For contractors, fleet buyers, and anyone regularly towing near maximum capacity, the diesel Silverado HD simply makes sense. And unlike older diesel trucks, it no longer feels agricultural during normal driving. It’s genuinely refined now. Just... extremely strong. The Silverado HD Trim Walk Actually Covers a Huge Range Lower trims focus on straightforward utility. Durable interiors. Work-ready configurations. Easy-clean surfaces. The kind of truck setup that spends more time around tools than coffee shops. Higher trims move things dramatically upscale. Available features across upper-level Silverado HD trims include: 13.4-inch infotainment displays Heated and ventilated seats Premium interior materials Advanced towing camera systems Wireless connectivity Built-in Wi-Fi hotspot capability Which means you can now tow heavy equipment while sitting in seats nicer than the furniture in many apartments. Las Vegas buyers wanting both capability and comfort can realistically configure the Silverado HD either direction. Pure work truck. Luxury hauler. Somewhere in between. Chevrolet gives you options. Modern Heavy-Duty Trucks Have Become Shockingly Smart Today’s HD trucks aren’t just about power figures anymore. They’re packed with towing technology designed to make life easier for normal humans attempting abnormal trailer maneuvers. The Silverado HD offers multiple available trailer camera views, wireless smartphone integration, OnStar® connectivity, and Chevrolet’s Transparent Trailer system, which effectively lets the truck “see through” a trailer using camera wizardry. Frankly, it feels like cheating. Helpful cheating but still cheating. Safety tech across the lineup includes available Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Lane Keep Assist, all useful when managing a truck this large in traffic around Las Vegas or on long interstate runs across Nevada. Desert Heat Is Brutal. The Silverado HD Was Built for It. Las Vegas driving conditions aren’t exactly gentle on vehicles. Long highway stretches, high temperatures, towing loads, and stop-and-go traffic create the kind of environment that exposes weak cooling systems very quickly. The Silverado HD’s heavy-duty cooling architecture is specifically designed to manage heat under demanding conditions, helping the truck maintain performance when temperatures climb and workloads increase. That matters for contractors heading between job sites, RV owners pulling through Nevada, or anyone towing equipment through the valley during peak summer heat. Because “overheated truck” is not a phrase anyone wants attached to a trailer full of expensive machinery. A Heavy-Duty Truck That Actually Fits Real Life The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado HD works because it understands its audience. Some buyers need a no-nonsense work truck. Some want a premium tow rig for long-distance hauling. Others want a truck capable of surviving weekdays at the job site and weekends towing toys into the desert. The Silverado HD lineup accommodates all of them. Drivers throughout Las Vegas, NV can explore Silverado HD inventory, compare gas and Duramax® engine configurations, schedule a test drive online, or review commercial and truck financing options through Team Chevrolet NV.

General Motors is redefining what an electric vehicle can do. Beyond delivering impressive performance and zero-emissions driving, today’s Chevrolet EVs are designed to do more than just get you from point A to point B. In fact, GM ranked as a top-two EV seller in the U.S. in 2025, and more than 246,000 GM vehicles sold were equipped with technology capable of helping power a properly equipped home during an outage.¹ ² That means thousands of Chevrolet EV drivers are already prepared for more than the daily commute—they’re ready to support their homes when it matters most. How Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) Works with Chevrolet EVs Through GM Energy, select vehicle-to-home (V2H) capable Chevrolet EVs can pair with available home energy management systems. When connected to the proper equipment, your EV can help supply power to your home during a grid outage. Instead of relying solely on traditional backup generators, your Chevrolet EV can become part of your home’s energy solution. This system uses technologies such as the GM Energy PowerShift Charger and the V2H Enablement Kit to create a seamless connection between your EV and your home’s electrical system. When the grid goes down, your properly equipped Chevrolet EV can help keep essential systems running. Making Home Energy Solutions More Accessible GM Energy is exploring ways to make home energy management more attainable for homeowners. One potential option under development is a leasing program for GM Energy home energy systems and PowerBank home batteries. Rather than paying the full cost upfront, customers may have the option to make manageable monthly payments—similar to leasing a vehicle. This approach is designed to reduce the barrier to entry and fit more comfortably into household budgets. Additional details are expected closer to launch. According to Wade Sheffer, Vice President of GM Energy, the goal is simple: unlock the unique benefits of EV ownership and provide customers with smarter ways to manage energy while maximizing the value of their investment. Real-World Benefits for Chevrolet Owners Every household’s energy needs are different. Some Chevrolet EV owners are pairing compatible solar panels, battery storage, and models like the Chevrolet Silverado EV to gain greater energy independence and manage utility costs more effectively. Others have used their systems to maintain power during major storms, including Gulf Coast hurricanes and West Coast wildfires. By charging their EV overnight—when electricity rates may be lower—and using stored energy during peak hours, some drivers are actively reducing their monthly energy bills. Programs like “Free Charge Nights” in Texas through Reliant Energy, along with pilot initiatives such as PG&E’s vehicle-to-everything (V2X) program, are helping expand opportunities for incentives and grid integration. GM Energy has also reported positive internal testing for vehicle-to-grid capability and continues working with utilities to certify these systems. The future vision is clear: your Chevrolet EV, your home, and the grid working together intelligently. A Smarter Alternative to Traditional Generators Unlike gas-powered generators, vehicle-to-home systems offer quiet operation and eliminate the need for annual maintenance tied to fuel systems. When properly installed and connected, a V2H-capable Chevrolet EV can provide backup support without the noise and upkeep many homeowners are used to. As energy technology continues to evolve, Chevrolet and GM are positioning EV ownership as more than just transportation—it’s an opportunity to rethink how your home uses and stores energy.

Rear view of Corvette ZR1X on drag strip. Preproduction model shown, actual production model may vary. The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X stands as the most technologically advanced Corvette ever produced and now holds the title of the quickest American production car on the market. It is also the fastest way to cover a quarter mile for a vehicle priced under $1 million. Final performance validation for the Corvette ZR1X was completed in October 2025 at US 131 Motorsports Park, a venue chosen to reflect real-world driving environments where Corvette owners push their cars to the limit. On a fully prepped drag strip, the ZR1X recorded an astonishing quarter-mile time of 8.675 seconds at 159 mph¹. The run was completed on pump gas, using standard-equipment tires and a production, 50-state-legal engine calibration. During the same pass, the ZR1X achieved a blistering 0–60 mph time of just 1.68 seconds¹. The ZR1X reached 60 mph in under 100 feet, producing a peak acceleration force of 1.75G. According to General Motors President Mark Reuss, this level of performance validates the decision to move Corvette to a mid-engine platform. “When we made the revolutionary shift to a mid-engine platform, this is the type of performance we knew was possible,” Reuss said. For testing, the vehicle was equipped with the ZR1X’s standard aerodynamic setup, standard Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, and available carbon-fiber wheels. The performance was not a single standout run, as the same test car completed multiple consecutive quarter-mile passes, all clocking in under 8.8 seconds. Corvette ZR1X completes the quarter mile in 8.675s at 159.57 mph. Powering the 2026 Corvette ZR1X is a twin-turbocharged LT7 V8 engine paired with a front-axle electric motor, producing a combined output of 1,250 horsepower². This electrified all-wheel-drive system delivers immense traction and instant acceleration off the line. The record-setting run was driven by Corvette development engineer and test driver Stefan Frick, who utilized Corvette’s standard Custom Launch Control system. Available across the Corvette lineup—from Stingray to ZR1X—this feature precisely manages wheel spin, clutch engagement, and other critical parameters. Drivers can fine-tune launch RPM and wheel slip targets via the auxiliary driver display to maximize acceleration performance. “There are many different parts and subsystems on this car, with teams across the company responsible for them,” Frick explained. “We were all motivated by the mission to break into the eights—this is a powerful example of the in-house skill at GM, and the level of performance we developed into this car.” Even on an unprepped surface, the Corvette ZR1X remains exceptionally quick. When equipped with the available ZTK Performance Package, it can complete the quarter mile in 8.99 seconds⁴ and accelerate from 0–60 mph in 1.89 seconds⁴. 1 On a closed course. Based on initial vehicle movement. 2 1,064 horsepower from the LT7 5.5L V8 engine plus 186 horsepower from the eAWD (electric drive unit). 3 The Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price includes destination freight charge. Tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment not included. Dealer sets final price. 4 On a closed course. Based on initial vehicle movement. Requires available ZTK Performance Package.

Reading the specifications of the 2025 Corvette ZR1 is impressive enough on its own. The figures are staggering: 1,064 horsepower, 828 lb-ft of torque, a GM-estimated 0–60 mph time of just 2.3 seconds¹, and a track top speed of 233 mph. But spec sheets can only tell part of the story. To truly grasp the ZR1’s speed, balance, and sheer capability, you need to experience it flat-out on a race track. Under a blazing triple-digit Texas sun, We buckled into a helmet, climbed into the passenger seat of a brand-new 2025 Corvette ZR1, and headed out onto Circuit of the Americas for an unforgettable lap. Behind the wheel was Chris Barber, the Corvette ZR1’s lead development engineer. Barber is also the driver who set a new production-car lap record at Road Atlanta in the ZR1, surpassing the previous benchmark by more than two seconds. That achievement was no accident — he’s one of four General Motors engineers who collectively earned ZR1 lap records at five different race tracks across the United States. These are the same people who engineered the car, and they know exactly how to push it to its limits.

Corvette CX and CX.R Vision Gran Turismo. Concept vehicles shown. Not available for sale. MONTEREY, Calif. – Chevrolet unveiled a bold glimpse into the future of high-performance design today with the debut of two striking Corvette concept vehicles—the Corvette CX and CX.R Vision Gran Turismo —at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering. Though not destined for production, both concepts are set to influence Corvette's design direction for years to come, drawing from over 70 years of performance heritage. These are the final Corvette concepts revealed this year as part of a global GM design exercise. Created at the Chevrolet Performance Studio in Warren, Michigan, the CX and CX.R showcase the creative freedom of GM’s global design teams. “The shape of a Corvette has always been expressive and aspirational,” said Phil Zak, executive design director for Chevrolet. “With the CX and CX.R, our teams stepped beyond production constraints to unleash creativity—and define where Corvette design is headed.” Front view of Corvette CX and side view of with canopy open. Concept vehicle shown. Not available for sale. Corvette CX Concept: A Vision of Road and Track Performance The Corvette CX imagines a future street-legal supercar built from the ground up for ultimate performance. Signature Corvette cues remain—such as a forward-thrusting nose, dual-element taillights, and the horizontal “chine” line—while its sleek, low-slung proportions and under-41-inch roofline give it a futuristic edge. Its sculpted body was shaped in collaboration with the GM Motorsports Aero Group, optimizing every surface for performance. A Vacuum Fan System pulls air through the open bodywork to generate downforce, while active front and rear aero components dynamically adjust to enhance grip and balance. The wing-shaped suspension A-arms further refine airflow and reduce lift. Underneath, the CX is powered by an all-wheel-drive electric setup with four motors (one per wheel), delivering over 2,000 horsepower. The 90-kWh lithium-ion battery, placed low in the chassis, ensures balanced weight distribution and a low center of gravity. Four-wheel torque vectoring enables precision cornering and grip. Inside, the CX delivers a fighter-jet-like experience. A canopy raises automatically upon approach, revealing Inferno Red ballistic textile seats, premium materials like silicone leather and forged carbon fiber, and a driver-centric cabin. A digital windscreen overlays real-time performance data, with controls elegantly integrated into the steering wheel for minimal distraction. Corvette CX interior in Inferno Red and Vision Gran Turismo interior in yellow and blac . Concept vehicles shown. Not available for sale. Corvette CX.R Vision Gran Turismo: Track-Only Performance, Game-Ready Design For over 25 years, Corvette’s production and racing programs have developed in tandem—and the CX.R Vision Gran Turismo reflects that legacy. Created solely for competition, the CX.R VGT evolves the CX’s aggressive styling into a purpose-built racecar, set to appear in Gran Turismo 7 later this month. Its yellow and black livery pays homage to Corvette Racing’s past, while enhanced active aero and a lowered stance maximize track-ready downforce. Lightweight construction and a stripped-down interior, featuring raw carbon fiber and suede inserts, emphasize functionality and performance. Heavily bolstered seats offer the head and neck support required for high-speed maneuvers. While the CX is fully electric, the CX.R VGT blends electrification with visceral combustion. A mid-mounted 2.0L twin-turbo DOHC V8, revving to 15,000 rpm and producing up to 900 hp, powers the rear wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. Three electric motors —two at the front wheels and one in the gearbox—deliver additional torque and bring total system output to 2,000 hp. The V8 runs on renewable e-fuel, combining sustainability with performance. Both the CX and CX.R VGT were engineered with real-world detail, from their chassis to aerodynamics. Chevrolet partnered with Polyphony Digital Inc., developers of Gran Turismo 7, to bring these designs to life in-game, allowing fans to experience the future of Corvette performance virtually.

Off-road racing legend “Lightning” Larry Ragland is bringing a true icon of desert racing to Las Vegas, as his celebrated Trophy Truck—known as “Arnold”—goes on display at Team Chevrolet, located at 5501 Drexel Road. Racing fans and motorsports enthusiasts will have the rare chance to see this historic vehicle up close during regular store hours. Ragland, a five-time SCORE Trophy Truck overall champion, is one of the most accomplished drivers in the history of off-road racing. He ranks second in all-time wins and was honored with induction into the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame in 2016. Known for his smooth, aggressive driving style and strategic precision, Ragland helped define an era of desert racing excellence. The Trophy Truck on display, affectionately named “Arnold,” made its debut at the legendary Baja 1000 in 1995—where it won what remains the longest version of the race, stretching from Tijuana to La Paz. Arnold continued its dominance with wins in 1996, 1997, and 1999, along with a strong second-place finish in 1998. Now, nearly three decades later, Arnold is back in the spotlight. In 2024, Ragland returned to competition behind the wheel of the same truck at the NORRA 1000, where he not only finished the grueling event but won his class—proving that both the machine and its driver still have what it takes. Remarkably, the truck remains 95 percent true to its original 1994 build. It still features one of its original engines and transmissions, along with key components such as the trailing arms, A-arms, and gauges from the original configuration. The exhibit offers a rare glimpse into a defining piece of off-road history and a testament to Ragland’s enduring legacy in motorsports.

Front 3/4 view of Blade Silver Corvette ZR1X and Sebring Orange Tintcoat Corvette ZR1X Convertible with ZTK Performance Package. Preproduction model shown, actual production model may vary. Chevrolet has unveiled an all-wheel-drive Corvette that truly deserves the legendary ZR1 title: the 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X. With an astounding 1,250 horsepower and electrified all-wheel-drive performance, the ZR1X stands as a genuine American hypercar and represents the most advanced Corvette to date. Together with the ZR1, Chevrolet now offers the most powerful performance car duo ever produced by an American automaker. Key Features of the ZR1X: LT7 Twin-Turbo V8: 1,064 horsepower at 7,000 rpm, 828 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm Front-Axle Electric Motor: 186 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque GM-estimated 0-60 mph: Under 2 seconds GM-estimated ¼ Mile Time: Under 9 seconds, with a trap speed of over 150 mph “From the very beginning, we designed the mid-engine Corvette platform with the ZR1X in mind,” said Ken Morris, General Motors Senior Vice President. “This is the most groundbreaking platform in Corvette’s history, offering a diverse range of American sports cars while delivering exceptional performance at every level.” New Corvette ZR1X badge on 2026 Corvette ZR1X in Blade Silver Metallic. Preproduction model shown, actual production model may vary. Unmatched Power and Traction The ZR1X starts with the ZR1’s LT7 V8 engine, producing more horsepower than any other V8 engine built by an American manufacturer — 1,064 hp and 828 lb-ft of torque, sent to the rear wheels through an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. This 5.5-liter Gemini small-block V8, hand-assembled with a forged flat-plane crankshaft, finger-follower valvetrain, and dry-sump lubrication, was developed alongside the naturally aspirated flat-plane crank engines found in the Corvette Z06 and Z06 GT3.R race car. Key highlights of this V8 include: Dual 76-mm Turbochargers “Maniturbo” Exhaust Design, integrating the manifold and turbo housing to minimize throttle lag by reducing the time needed to build boost Dynamic Anti-Lag Technology, which maintains turbo speed when off-throttle for quick boost recovery upon acceleration While the ZR1 emphasized rear-wheel drive, the ZR1X takes performance to new heights by incorporating all-wheel-drive. Benefiting from the 2024 E-Ray’s innovative electrified AWD system, the ZR1X combines a high-voltage battery and electric motor to power the front axle, while the V8 drives the rear. These two systems are entirely independent, and the electrified drivetrain does not require external charging — energy is regenerated via the front drive unit. The ZR1X’s battery pack, positioned low within the car's chassis for optimal weight distribution, is engineered to handle rapid power bursts and quick charging cycles. This pack, though sharing the same 1.9 kWh capacity as the E-Ray, now provides enhanced energy efficiency for better lap times. This improvement increases the peak operating voltage, further enhancing power output from the front motor. The compact electric motor on the front axle offers 186 hp and 145 lb-ft of torque when needed. Although the ZR1X's front electric motor mirrors the E-Ray unit’s size and shape, it is strengthened with upgraded components, resulting in an additional 26 hp and 20 lb-ft of torque. The front axle operates up to 160 mph before disengaging, significantly improving ZR1X’s quarter-mile performance and track handling. Front 3/4 view of 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X in Blade Silver Metallic. Preproduction model shown, actual production model may vary. Two Systems, One Unified Mission The eAWD system, initially developed for the E-Ray, has been significantly refined for the ZR1X. The integration of the LT7 engine’s specific characteristics allows the ZR1X to seamlessly blend power from both axles, ensuring responsive handling and traction in all driving conditions. On the track, ZR1X automatically adjusts to track session needs and driver preferences, optimizing performance through: Endurance Mode – Tailored to extend battery life and provide consistent all-wheel-drive power for prolonged track sessions Qualifying Mode – Maximized power strategy designed to achieve the fastest lap times Push-to-Pass Mode – Instantaneous full-power delivery at the driver’s command Additionally, PTM Pro, debuting in 2026 across all Corvettes, is optimized for the ZR1X. This setting provides the most pure driving experience by disabling traction and stability control but retaining: Regenerative Brake Torque Vectoring – For energy recovery without compromising agility Front Axle Pre-Control – Adjusting brake pressure to optimize corner-exit traction Launch Control – Customizable settings for rapid acceleration from a standstill Maximum Control On and Off the Track The ZR1X’s performance is matched by its braking prowess. The J59 Brake Package, standard on the ZR1X and optional on the ZR1, is a new design focused on superior heat resistance and highly responsive braking performance. Featuring Alcon 10-piston front and 6-piston rear calipers paired with 16.5-inch carbon-ceramic rotors, this is the most advanced braking system ever tested by GM. During testing, Corvettes equipped with the J59 package were able to achieve an incredible 1.9G of deceleration from 180 mph to 120 mph. ZR1X offers two chassis configurations, both featuring magnetic ride control for optimal suspension tuning based on driving mode, road conditions, and driver input. The standard setup, paired with Michelin PS4S tires, provides a blend of comfort and track capability, while the available ZTK Performance Package offers a firmer suspension and is paired with Michelin Pilot Cup 2R tires, elevating the ZR1X’s performance to the highest level. For those seeking even more downforce, the Carbon Aero Package is available, adding dive planes, underbody strakes, a hood lip, and an effective rear wing that generates up to 1,200 lbs of downforce at top speed. This package is standard on ZTK-equipped ZR1X models. The Ultimate Corvette Performance Car The 2026 Corvette ZR1X is the pinnacle of the eighth-generation Corvette, offering a no-compromise performance package. Whether you're looking for an all-day tourer, a blistering straight-line rocket, or a precision track machine, ZR1X delivers. It will be available in both coupe and hardtop convertible body styles, featuring the newly updated Corvette interior, which includes a modern three-screen layout, a redesigned console, real-time vehicle data via the Performance App, and new premium materials and color options. Every ZR1X will be assembled at General Motors’ Bowling Green Assembly Plant in Kentucky, with components sourced from the U.S. and worldwide. Each LT7 engine will be meticulously hand-assembled by GM's expert engine builders at the Bowling Green Performance Build Center.

Chevrolet unveiled the Silverado EV ZR2 off-road race truck concept at the legendary Mint 400 off-road race, where the truck will also compete in the notorious event as part of the Hall Racing team’s lineup. The Silverado EV ZR2 race truck concept joins the team’s Silverado ZR2 and Colorado ZR2 race trucks, and Chad Hall will drive the all-electric off-road race truck in the Open Production EV class. “There is no better proving ground to test the limits of our vehicles than competitive racing,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “The Silverado EV ZR2 race truck concept, which uses 98% GM production parts, showcases some of the best of Chevrolet to produce a beyond-capable pickup to tackle a challenging race of the Mint 400’s magnitude.” Though a concept, the Silverado EV ZR2 race truck follows the same winning ZR2 formula as the Colorado ZR2 and Silverado ZR2: Lifted, front and rear suspension with specific off-road tuning that continues to deliver on the pavement Multimatic damper technology Locking differentials Underbody skid protection The high-performance, off-road Silverado EV ZR2 race truck concept came to life quickly, after only five months of development, and features roughly 98% GM production parts. The cornerstone of the race truck’s off-road chops is prototype Multimatic Adaptive Spool Valve continuously adaptive dampers. These dampers provide off-road performance for the more than 13 inches of front and rear wheel travel. Combined with the Silverado EV ZR2 race truck’s 37-inch BF Goodrich KM3 Mud-Terrain tires, and a tri-motor electric propulsion system that creates 1,100 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque, the race truck concept more than earns the ZR2 badge. No stranger to the desert and off-road racing, Chevrolet engineers will embed themselves with the Chad Hall Racing team to analyze the race truck’s performance, durability and capability. Each learning will be applied to production vehicles, performance parts and accessories from Chevrolet. Today, more than 44 off-road performance parts and accessories are available for customers to buy for production trucks. "Working with the Chevy engineers is always a good day at the office," said Chad Hall, primary driver and owner of Hall Racing race team lead. "What we learn from racing is applied to vehicles consumers can buy. An off-road race like The Mint 400 is equivalent to a lifetime of vehicle wear and tear.” Hall Racing first started competing in a stock production class in a Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 in 2017. Since then, the team has finished 53 of 54 races entered. The Silverado ZR2 race truck concept’s reveal comes as Chevy prepares to launch this summer the 2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss, its first off-road oriented EV variant. Trail Boss is a more off-road capable Silverado EV with a factory-installed lift, 18-inch wheels, 35-inch all-terrain tires and red tow hooks. New Terrain Mode gives the truck increased maneuverability in tight spaces. Team Chevrolet has the Silverado EV in stock now and ready for immediate delivery.
