The Chevy Silverado is the first full-size production pickup to utilize hybrid technology with the Vortec 5.3L V8 engine but has limited availability in the states. View the Chevy Truck and see all other features not listed here.The built-in generator provides 120-volt AC current by way of four household style accessory power outlets, two in the cab and two in the cargo box. Total collective available power of 2,400 watts offers the capability of running power tools and household items, such as a refrigerator, or functioning as a generator in a remote area. Its 14,000-watt electric motor works closely with the Vortec 5.3L V8 engine to boost city fuel economy by 2 MPG without a loss in power, compared to a conventional Silverado Classic with the same engine. That’s gas mileage that comparable Ford Triton and the Dodge HEMI gas engines can’t touch. An electric motor replaces the conventional starter and alternator components, resulting in a nearly invisible integration of the electric motor into the gasoline power train. Chevy Silverado Classic Hybrid features an engine start/stop system that automatically shuts the engine off to save fuel when braking at speeds below 13 mph, or when the vehicle is not moving. When the brake pedal is released, the accelerator is pressed or the Tow/Haul mode button is pressed, the engine automatically restarts. The Chevy Silverado Classic Hybrid’s regenerative braking takes some of the inertial energy from the moving vehicle and turns it back into electrical energy, which is stored in the Energy Storage Module.
