The aggressively-styled 2023 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 will arrive next year, featuring some fascinating upgrades. As you may know, this isn’t an ordinary half-ton pickup truck. The ZR2 is an off-road beast that has an intimidating appearance.
Unlike the regular Silverado model, this truck features a tricked-out suspension, Multimatic spool-valve dampers derived from Formula 1, and one of the sporty cabins in the segment. It also comes in a crew-cab-only body style, and everyone inside can enjoy the ride with maximum comfort. Under the bulging hood, there is a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V-8 that’s also available in the regular Silverado 1500 model. The engine is powerful, and it delivers 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque.
