2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 vs 2020 Ford F-150

It’s no surprise that the Chevy Silverado 1500 is one of Canada’s favourite light-duty trucks. More truck buyers appreciate its class-leading capabilities and technology. For the 2020 model year, the Silverado leaps ahead of the competition in towing performance as well. To help you make the best purchasing decision, here we present the 2020 Silverado 1500 and the Ford F-150 in a head-to-head competition.

The 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 makes its own mark in power and efficiency

When you need a truck to match your engine and drivetrain needs, don’t look past the Silverado 1500. Seven engine and drivetrain combinations and more eight-cylinder power than the F-150 put the Silverado at an advantage. The Silverado’s Trail Boss surpasses the F-150 as the most affordable light-duty truck in its class with over 400 horsepower. The Silverado RST with the new 6.2L engine tows more than any other light-duty pickup, including the F-150, with a 13 400-pound capability.

The Silverado’s two new engines reach head-turning power and efficiency. The new 6.2L eight-cylinder engine creates 420 hp and 466 lb-ft of torque while paired to a 10-speed transmission. When efficiency is more important, the new Duramax Turbo Diesel 3.0L delivers 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque while beating the Ford F-150 in fuel consumption. It provides a car-like 10.2 L/100 km city and 7.2 L/100km highway fuel consumption rating. 

World-class trailering in the 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500

Towing large loads just became a simpler job with the Silverado. The advanced trailering system with Transparent Trailer View is the most advanced trailering technology offered on light-duty trucks. It offers 15 unique views that enable you to see traffic, pedestrians and obstructions behind and around your trailer. The Transparent Trailer View uses two special cameras to provide a see-through view in back of your trailer. This gives you a peace of mind about changing lanes, making tight turns, backing up and more. The Ford F-150 doesn’t offer this level of capability.

When you want a truck with the best available off-road capability without the premium model price, the Silverado’s Z71 Off Road Package is available on more trims. It includes premium shocks, all-terrain tires, a skid plate and more so you can conquer some of Canada’s best trails.
