Chevy Silverado 1500 Confirms 281 HP Diesel Engine in Argentina

 The chevy Silverado 1500 2021 is already being exhibited to the Argentine public at the Carilo resort, and has been fully confirmed by General Motors for next year.

Now with a diesel engine, it will face the already present Ford F-150 and RAM 1500, both with diesel there. Here, the market is waiting, but the good news is that GM has already confirmed its arrival in the country, still on an unknown date.

Bigger and heavier than the S10, the chevy Silverado 1500 arrives in the neighboring country in the same generation sold in the USA, these Chevy Silverado 1500 fog lights are dot approved,  but with Mexican production, which guarantees its landing without import tax.

The Duramax 3.0 propeller is a 281 horsepower, 62.9 kgfm inline six, which allows GM's pickup truck to perform excellently. It remains to be seen whether this configuration will be sold here, even more so after RAM turned the tables with the 1500 Rebel and its powerful 5.7 HEMI pure gasoline V8.

However, it's not likely that GM will go for RAM with a Silverado 1500 gasoline here, especially since the model is being distributed in South America with the Duramax 3.0.

As chevy does not have the Silverado 2500 diesel here, which would compete with the RAM 2500, chevy has the opportunity to board a pickup truck with the profile of most customers of this type of product, especially linked to agribusiness.

Currently, the most expensive S10 is the High Country for R$ 223,090. This allows GM to have with the chevy Silverado 1500 diesel, a very wide range of performance and with prices below the RAM 2500, which currently costs R$ 376,990.

Due to its lighter weight, it can be driven with CNH B, expanding its performance. Equipped with a 10-speed automatic transmission (the same as the Camaro SS) and 4×4 traction, the chevy Silverado 1500 has a good filling.

With a double cab, it can come with 20-inch alloy wheels, 8-inch multimedia screen, HUD, pedestrian detector with automatic braking, collision alert, lane alert, Bose sound system, among others.
