The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado HD ZR2 Bison represents the pinnacle of off-road performance and heavy-duty capability in Chevy’s truck lineup. Debuting alongside the Silverado HD ZR2, the Bison variant enhances the Silverado HD’s off-road credentials with exclusive features and equipment from American Expedition Vehicles (AEV), making it the ultimate truck for adventurous drivers.
Performance and Capability
The Silverado HD ZR2 Bison is offered exclusively in the 2500 Crew Cab configuration, with a choice between a standard 6.6L gasoline engine or the available 6.6L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine. This heavy-duty off-roader doesn’t compromise on performance, boasting a max payload of 3,397 pounds (with the gas engine) and an impressive trailering rating of 18,500 pounds when equipped with the Duramax Turbo-Diesel.
Unique Off-Road Features
Built for extreme off-road conditions, the HD ZR2 Bison includes several enhancements over the standard HD ZR2:
- Exclusive AEV Equipment: Gloss black 18-inch AEV wheels, stamped-steel front and rear bumpers with integrated recovery points, and tough underbody skid plates.
- Suspension and Handling: Multimatic DSSV dampers, specific front upper and lower control arms, specific steering knuckles, and a rear e-locker.
- Tires and Wheels: 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires on 18 x 9-inch aluminum wheels.
Design and Interior
The HD ZR2 Bison is instantly recognizable with its ZR2 family front grille, higher stance, and unique wheel moldings with integrated mud guards. The interior is equally impressive, featuring dark trim accents, Jet Black and Graystone leather-appointed surfaces, and a redesigned instrument panel with a 13.4-inch-diagonal infotainment screen and a 12.3-inch-diagonal configurable driver information center.
Advanced Technology
Equipped with smart off-road technology, the HD ZR2 Bison offers an available 15-inch Head-Up Display with an off-road inclinometer and HD Surround Vision. The truck also includes a redesigned wireless phone charger area and a flow-under console for efficient use of interior space.
