Chevy’s famous full-sized pickup has a diverse selection of interior options to choose from. They range from a functional setup that’s perfect if you’re looking for a work truck for the job site, to a more upscale cabin where your family and friends can relax in comfort. Here’s a quick guide to the Silverado 1500’s various interior features across its trim lineup.

2022 Silverado 1500 Trims

For 2022, Chevy sells the Silverado 1500 in seven trims: Work Truck, Custom, LT, Trail Boss, RST, LTZ, and High Country. The Trail Boss is really a sub-trim, since it’s available either as a Custom Trail Boss or LT Trail Boss, and has a similar interior to each of them.

If you’re unsure about which trim to choose, you’ll first need to consider what your main reason for buying the Silverado is. If it’s to get the job done at work, the Work Truck or Custom trims will probably do just fine. However, if you’re planning on using your Chevy as a family vehicle, you may want to add some interior luxury to the cabin by checking out the higher trims, starting with the LT.

In addition to the Silverado’s trims, there are several special editions you can opt for to create a specific design. One example of this is the Texas Edition, which includes larger wheels and some unique styling elements associated with the Loan Star State.

Silverado 1500 Work Truck and Custom

You have two options for the Work Truck’s (WT) cabin. The first is the Regular cab, which provides you with seating for three people on a single bench seat. This is a good choice if you want the longest cargo bed for transporting equipment. The second option is the larger Double Cab, which can seat up to six people across two rows.

Whichever cab you choose, the WT comes standard with synthetic leather upholstery and manually adjustable seats. In terms of infotainment, you can look forward to a seven-inch screen, and smart phone compatibility with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The main safety feature offered in the base trim is Teen Driver, which allows you to restrict how your Silverado is used so young drivers can learn safely.

The Custom trim gives you the option of the Double Cab or Crew Cab. Both can seat six people, but the Crew Cab has a lot more legroom for the rear row. So if you regularly transport adult passengers in the second row, the Crew Cab is probably the right call.

The Silverado 1500 Custom’s interior features cloth upholstery. There are some additional entertainment features to take note of, including satellite radio, a wireless hot spot, and a six-speaker stereo. The Custom also benefits from more safety features, such as cruise control and a Rear Seat Reminder.

Silverado LT and Trail Boss

The LT’s cabin gets a few additional upscale touches, such as heated front seats and a heated steering wheel. The driver also benefits from a power-adjustable seat. A huge infotainment screen measuring 13.4 inches is included, while the automatic climate control ensures that the cabin stays at a comfortable temperature during your journey. Finally, you get a 12-inch digital instrument cluster so you can monitor your Chevy’s performance on the road.

The Silverado’s Trail Boss sub-trims add a considerable amount of off-road technology, including hill descent control, improved suspension, and a two-speed transfer case. However, their interiors are much the same as the Custom and LT trims. The one difference is that the LT Trail Boss is only available with the larger Crew Cab.

Silverado 1500 RST and LTZ

The RST’s interior is largely modeled on the LT’s cabin, with the main differences between the two trims on the exterior. The Silverado RST does have a couple interior upgrades, including LED cargo-bed lighting and remote start.

The LTZ is only available with the Crew Cab. Its interior takes luxury to the next level, with ventilated front seats and heated rear-row seats. On top of that, you also get genuine leather upholstery. The addition of a power outlet to the cargo bed can come in handy for work or recreation.

The LTZ also boasts a number of driver safety features. You gain front and rear parking sensors, which can make it a lot easier for you to maneuver your Silverado in and out of tight parking spots. Rear cross traffic alert and blind spot monitoring are also included.

If you purchase the LTZ trim, you have the choice to opt for some package upgrades. With the LTZ Premium package, you gain a seven-speaker stereo, wireless device charging, and a navigation system. Several safety upgrades are also available, including a surround-view parking camera, which provides you with an aerial view of your Silverado on your screen so you can park with confidence.

Silverado 1500 High Country

The High Country is the Silverado’s range-topping trim, so it’s hardly surprising that it shows off the most sumptuous interior. It features several unique styling elements, and includes many of the optional features in the LTZ, such as the premium stereo and navigation system, as standard offerings.

We hope that our overview of the Silverado’s extensive range of interior features for 2022 has helped you decide which trim level is the best option for you. Before you make a final decision, keep in mind that not all trim levels are available with every combination of cargo bed and cab, or with all of the power train options. You should investigate these options before you make up your mind on the most appropriate trim level for your requirements.
