2025 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Engine & Tow Specs
The heart and soul of any truck is its engine, and the 2025 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD is no exception. It’s powered by your choice of two massively powerful V8 engines — a standard gas option and an available Duramax® turbo diesel. Both engines are paired with an Allison® ten-speed automatic transmission and are available with either rear-wheel drive (RWD) or four-wheel drive (4WD). Of the two, the Duramax is the clear leader when it comes to towing — using a conventional hitch, it allows you to tow 20,000 with your Silverado 2500 HD. Using a gooseneck or fifth-wheel hitch, the maximum towing capacity increases to 22,430 pounds. If you need maximum payload capabilities, then the gas V8 offers a slight advantage with a 3,689-pound maximum capacity.
In addition to being an elite towing truck, the Silverado 2500 HD is capable of helping you take your next adventure off the beaten path. The ZR2 trim offers rugged off-road capability with Multimatic DSSV™ dampers, rear electronic-locking differential, a 1.5-inch factory-installed lift, and 35-inch Goodyear® Wrangler Territory® MT tires.
