Capability

Whether you’re heading to work or heading out for a weekend at the lake, the Chevy Silverado’s safety and mobile car technology makes a great traveling companion. From the security of OnStar, standard for 6 months on most Silverado models, to the numbers of ways you can be entertained, to internet access, Silverado gives you the ability to stay connected and in touch.

Chevy WiFi by Autonet Mobile turns your Silverado into a mobile hotspot:

Available dealer-installed GM-licensed accessory provides multiple users with full Internet access inside the vehicle and up to a 150-foot radius around the vehicle.

New Navigation/Entertainment System

The 2012 Chevy Silverado offers a new Touch-Screen Navigation and Entertainment system. Up to 30GB hard drive lets you store your favorite music.

In the case of threatening weather, you will see National Weather Service warnings in your area. Local Forecast is included with NavTraffic as part of the 3 month trial.

OnStar Directions & Connections Plan

The Silverado takes you a long way from anywhere, which makes the reach of OnStar advanced technology that much more valuable. In a collision, vehicle sensors can automatically alert a trained OnStar Advisor, who can request that emergency help be sent to your exact location, even if you can’t respond. And when work calls you to unfamiliar terrain, Turn-by-Turn Navigation gives you voice-guided directions to help you find your way. It’s all standard on most models for six months.

Vehicle Diagnostics

Updates you on the performance of your engine, transmission, safety features and more on most models via email, or real-time from an Advisor while driving. Standard for the first six months on most models.

Bluetooth Wireless Technology

Make, answer and end calls without taking your hands off the wheel or your eyes from the road. Just tap the steering-wheel controls and you’re in touch. Bluetooth wireless technology for select phones is standard on Hybrid and LTZ models.

Rear Vision Camera

Available Rear Vision Camera helps you see certain stationary objects located behind the vehicle while traveling in reverse at low speeds. Very useful when hooking up a trailer!

Safety

Before, During, and After the Crash

StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System helps you keep on the road and in control. The control module compares your steering input with the vehicle’s actual response and then, if necessary, makes small, individual applications to help keep you on track. In 2012, StabiliTrak includes Hill Start Assist and Trailer Sway Control — even more assurance (not available on Silverado Hybrid). A Tire Pressure Monitor keeps a constant watch on the inflation level of the vehicle’s four road tires.

Six air bags

18 are standard in the Silverado 1500: driver and right-frontal passenger dual-stage frontal air bags; head-curtain side-impact air bags for the front and rear outboard seating positions; and front-seat mounted air bags for thorax and pelvic protection. You’re also surrounded by a high-strength steel safety cage and strategically placed crush zones to help absorb and channel crash energy in case of a collision.

OnStar with Built-In Automatic Crash Response

In a collision, vehicle sensors can alert an OnStar Advisor who is immediately connected into your vehicle and can request emergency help be sent to your exact GPS location, even if you can’t respond.
