Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid
The Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid was introduced in the 2006 model year as an optional engine configuration on this hugely popular truck. The Hybrid configuration is expected to produce an increased fuel economy of 10% by simply adding a motor and generator to the existing Vortec 4800 V8 engine to drive or at least help drive the wheels under low load situations.
Recent Changes
The 2007 model Silverado has had many small changes both inside and out. Chevy has strayed from its trend of sharing similar from ends across vehicle lines like the Tahoe to produce a new and very pleasing looking vehicle. The vehicle seems as to have gained some size and girth but has borrowed elements from its little brother the Colorado which may make this seem skewed at first glance. Other options that seem to have been normally limited to the mid-size market vehicle have found their way onto the 2007 Silverado such as roof rails, fog lights and nerf bars.
