The Chevy Silverado ZR2, the top-of-the-line model in the 1500 series, has an abundance of all-terrain features that enhance its off-road performance. The 2024 Chevy Silverado ZR2 now comes equipped with additional features to enhance its mobility.
First off, for the 2024 model year, the Silverado ZR2 was given a new set of wheels. These were the 18-inch Black Face Beadlock capable wheels with Oxide Gold Decorative Ring (RPO code EU2), which retailed for $3,695 LPO or dealer installed. The Oxide Gold rings that come with the wheel set can now be replaced with new ornamental accessories for these rollers.
These new ornamental rings, which cost $1,195 more than the EU2 wheels, include (applicable RPO code in parenthesis):
- Red decorative rings for wheels that can be beadlocked (LPO, VYN)
- LPO, Black Ornamental Rings for Wheels with Beadlock Capability (VYP)
It is important to note that the Silverado ZR2 is the only vehicle that can have these ornamental rings. Furthermore, the Bison Edition (RPO code ULV) cannot be bought with the beadlock wheels.
Recall that the Chevy Silverado 1500 comes with an extensive range of engine options, such as the 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet torque TurboMax turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, the 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet torque naturally aspirated 5.3L V8 L84 gasoline engine, the 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet torque naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine, and the 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax engine, which is rated at 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of
Under the surface, the Silverado is built on the same GM T1 platform as the GMC Sierra, with manufacture occurring at the GM plants in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Oshawa, Canada, and Silao, Mexico.
