Technology and Connectivity

The 2024 Silverado 1500 has a range of interesting tech features that make every ride more enjoyable and convenient. The most notable is the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system, which provides wireless smartphone integration through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Once you’ve connected a compatible phone to the truck, you can use voice command pass-through to call people hands-free while you’re driving or send text messages from behind the wheel.

The Silverado 1500 also has Wi-Fi hotspot capability provided by AT&T. This hotspot provides internet access on up to ten devices, including laptops, smartphones, and tablets. This lets you browse the web or stream television shows and movies within fifty feet of your truck.

Advanced Safety Functions

The new Chevrolet Silverado 1500 also has high-tech safety functions that can give you added peace of mind on the road. This includes the Chevy Safety Assist package, which essentially acts as a second pair of eyes on the road. Chevy Safety Assist uses driver-assistance functions like Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking to surveil your surroundings at all times and look out for potential hazards on the road.

Teen Driver is another advanced safety function you can find in the Silverado 1500. Teen Driver collects data as your teen drives the truck and creates an in-cabin report card that details how well they’re driving. This can help you encourage safer driving practices.
