2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

The 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is offered in three body shapes which were again sectionalized into various trims based on the engine, drivetrain, and cargo beds. However, the Regular Cab comes in just one trim with two drivetrain options: 2-wheel-drive and 4-wheel-drive. We expect the 2022 version of the Silverado 1500 to follow the same trim game with a slight increase in the price.

We Recommend

Since there is only one trim with two drivetrains on offer, we recommend the Silverado 1500 WT 4WD as it offers better traction and stability for the extra bucks you spend on it. Apart from that, everything remains the same for the two variants. Features like single-zone climate control, vinyl seats, dusk-sensing headlamps, and more come standard with the Regular Cab variant.

The 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Regular Cab is a decent vehicle when it comes to fuel economy, though not the most frugal out there. It gets a claimed combined economy of 21 mpg, while the claimed fuel economy for city and highway usage happens to be 20 and 23 mpg, respectively. Furthermore, the Silverado comes equipped with a huge 24-gallon gas tank that assures minimal gas stops.

The overall fuel economy delivered by the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Regular Cab is decent and is on par with the segment standards. The car also offers one of the best fuel tank capacities of the group as well. All the pickups except RAM 1500 offer a combined mileage of 21, whereas the RAM takes an advantage of 1 MPG over others.

 The new 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Regular Cab will feature an updated interior layout. The dashboard, however, is expected to get a practical and ergonomically sorted layout with a number of storage options. Apart from this, the cabin gets plush seats with manual adjustability and a foldable middle seat. Other features on offer include steering-mounted controls, auto-dimming IRVM, 4-inch colored MID, to name a few. 

The fit and finish levels inside the cabin are expected to be just as good, if not better, than the rivals, while the seats are expected to remain ergonomic and supportive.
