I read this article about it this morning:

How Does the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Drive With the 2.7-Liter? - PickupTrucks.com News

Sounds like it has a lot of interesting technology. Like it or not, these turbo gas engines (and the EPA) are killing diesels.

That's funny considering how they always used to bash Ford for having a 6-cylinder.

And the man-step in the tail gate.

22lbs of boost. Assume those turbos are close to being maxed out?

Truck looks awful.

You watch your mouth! That's an appearance "upgrade", according to them.

Love how the front fenders look like they don't even attach to the bumper. Looks like they just overlap the two.

That's typically the case. OEMs tend to install the smallest turbo passible to meet their goals, which helps reduce turbo lag.

so they're introducing an engine that's the same displacement as the base ford ecoboost but makes less torque and less power and its a 4 cylinder to boot? huh?

major fail.. I cant imagine how/why this got approved. Guarantee this motor will be huffing/puffing and straining to end up with worse real world mpg than a properly sized NA v6.

They did all of this work on the front end, tried to get all intricate and unique, and then just said "meh draw something in, we need to go to lunch" on the sides of the truck.

The front end isn't awful, but it's just this transformers crazy looking from end accompanied by the most plain bed sides and fenders possible.

Interesting that it is also 2.7 liters. I do think at this displacement a 4 cylinder makes more sense than a 6 cylinder.

Should get great mpg. Its gonna out perform the 5.3. Still the 6.2L is the only engine i would want if i was interested in a chevy truck.

I would agree other than you spread the load per cylinder out more with a v6. That being said, this 4 cylinder looks to make some pretty solid numbers.

It's actually .4L bigger than Ford's 2.3 ecoboost but makes less power and torque.

no matter engine wise...ugly truck for sure.

Pass. I have no need for a full size, 4cyl truck.
