* 2019 Silverado will have six available engines * New 2.7 - liter turbo four - cylinder will aim for efficiency * Eight - and ten speed transmissions will be available * V8 models will have 17 different modes of cylinder deactivation
Automatic - equipped SS convertibles need a slightly modified exhaust to hide the
sound of cylinder deactivation, but our stick - shifted car requires only a blip of the throttle to send sweet pushrod V - 8 music resonating through the balconies, the occasional pop - pop of overrun turning heads once more.
Compared to the engine and transmission technologies discussed above, there has been far less growth in the absolute production
shares of cylinder deactivation (CD), hybrid and diesel powertrains.
The new trucks maximize the use
of cylinder deactivation with improved engine mounts, electronic throttle control, adaptive exhaust systems, improved aerodynamics, low - rolling resistance tires, and other technologies that help the engines operate in four - cylinder mode for longer periods of time, further increasing efficiency.
Except these two engines, in the offer also are and the 1.4 - liter petrol engine in versions with 125 hp (92 kW) and 150 hp (110 kW), of which the stronger one has the
ability of cylinder deactivation to save fuel consumption.
The all - new 2019 Silverado 1500 offers six engine and transmission combinations, including an all - new 2.7 L Turbo, and V - 8 engines with industry - first Dynamic Fuel Management offering 17 different modes of cylinder deactivation
The R / T comes standard with the V8, which makes
use of cylinder deactivation, 20 - inch wheels, performance tires, a premium sound system and HID headlights.
No official fuel consumption figures have been released either, but the use
of cylinder deactivation should help the Z06 return acceptable figures.
Over half of the models will be equipped with the most advanced V - 8s in the brand's history: updated versions of Chevrolet's proven 5.3 L and 6.2 L engines equipped with industry - first Dynamic Fuel Management featuring 17 different modes
of cylinder deactivation.
