Notes and sources

  1. Fuel economy: EPA combined test-cycle figure for the configuration Silverado 2WD (23 city, 29 highway). EPA data dated 2026-09-09, the latest modifiedOn date EPA records in vehicles.csv.↩
  2. CO₂: EPA's tailpipe rating for the car driven as rated on the test cycle — 397 g/mi, or 247 g/km.↩
  3. Fuel cost: not estimated. This site has no diesel price source yet, so no cost is computed for a diesel car.↩
  4. Power: 305 hp is the rated figure, from NHTSA's CAFE market data.↩
  5. Crash rating: NHTSA rated vehicles under this nameplate, but the ratings differ between the configurations it tested and none of them is this car's, so no rating is stated.↩
  6. Recall campaigns: NHTSA's count for this variant (SILVERADO 1500), as of 2026-09-10. Each is repaired free of charge by dealers.↩
  7. Complaints: NHTSA holds 48 for the 2024 Silverado, 1 of which describe a crash, fire, injury or death. The rate per 10,000 built is not computed: complaints no VIN places, or production no fuel code places, make the rate uncertain by more than 5%.↩
  8. Kerb weight: a trim average across the compliance configuration (NHTSA CAFE), 5,200 lb (2,359 kg); corroborated by the EPA test weight.↩
  9. EPA test weight: 5,500 lb (2,495 kg) is the equivalent test weight class EPA tested this configuration at, not the kerb weight.↩
  10. Warranty: 3 years or 36,000 miles, from Chevrolet's published 2024 warranty statement, compiled into carstandings.com's warranty table.↩
  11. Registrations: 660 Silverados of this model year on New York's roads, from the NY DMV registration file as of 2026-09-02.↩
  12. This car is measured on the diesel scale: miles per gallon, the tailpipe CO₂ rating and whole-car horsepower. MPGe and charge-weighted CO₂ are electric-scale quantities and do not apply to it.↩
  13. Price: no price is published for this car. NHTSA's CAFE market data prices this market's cars by compliance configuration, and it lists none matching this one.↩

Coverage: Fewer plug-in hybrids are ranked for 2024 than for 2023 or 2025. EPA's 2024 fuel-economy file, the source of every US car in these standings, lists no plug-in version of several cars it lists for both of those years, among them the Ford Escape, Lincoln Corsair, Kia Niro, BMW X5, Volvo S90 and Porsche Cayenne. Those plug-in hybrids are missing from the 2024 standings, not ranked low.
