However, the Silverado name was not officially until the 1999 model year. Between 1975 and 1999, Silverado was used as a trim level name for the Chevrolet C/K pickups and Suburban and Tahoe SUVs. When the 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 made its appearance, it came with various innovations never used before on a pickup. This included a manufacturing process called hydroforming. This process made the Silverado’s frame lightweight and stronger. Another Chevrolet pickup innovation was the first hybrid pickup called the Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid. It was in production from 2009 through 2013 and came with a Two-Mode Hybrid transmission that helped the truck achieve up to 30 mpg. Since its debut the Silverado 1500 has given buyers a lot of choices including engine option, body configurations, and bed lengths. The Silverado has always offered both V6 and V8 engines along with smaller, more efficient options. Some engines are Flex Fuel compatible, which means they can run on either regular fuel or E85 gasoline. In 2000, Chevrolet introduced a heavy-duty Silverado model. Then, in 2003, the Silverado SS made its debut. This was a high-performance model with powertrain upgrades and visual enhancements. Other early special edition models included the Vortec High Output and the Intimidator SS. The second-generation Silverado was introduced in 2007. This new truck had more power, new styling, and advanced technology. Thanks to its new aerodynamic design, it made big jumps in fuel efficiency. The new model was also designed to be tougher and had a new steel frame that improved body stiffness by 92%. In 2014, Chevrolet unveiled the third-generation Silverado. This new truck got three new engine options, a high-strength steel bed, and lots of in-cabin technology like Bluetooth®, Chevrolet MyLink, and other premium features. Chevrolet introduced the fourth-generation Silverado for the 2019 model year. It will be the most innovative Silverado ever with more bed cargo volume, a lighter curb weight, and more technology.
