Even after an all-new Chevrolet Silverado has been introduced for 2007, the former Silverado continues to be sold as the Silverado Classic. This older, respected design, like the new Silverado, comes in several different combinations of cab styles, bed lengths, and V6 and V8 engines, and also comes in two specialized variants that the new Silverado doesn't yet offer--a Hybrid and a high-performance SS. Silverado Classic models differ very little from equivalent 2006 Silverado models, with the exception of a few minor feature changes, and the five-speed manual transmission is now only offered with the V6.
SelectBrowse ListingsWith the introduction of a new GMT900 platform version of the Silverado full-sized pickup truck for the 2007 model year, Chevrolet continued offering the previous GMT800 based truck as the 1500 Classic. For what was the final year of production for the GMT800 variant of the Chevrolet pickup truck, the 2007 Silverado 1500 Classic was available as a regular cab, extended cab or crew cab body style. Each body style also allowed the choice of a small or longer length bed. A 195-horsepower, 4.3-liter V-6 engine was equipped on standard box regular and extended cab versions of the Silverado 1500 Classic. On the long-box model of the extended cab model and the short box crew cab, an eight-cylinder Vortec 4.8-liter generating 285 horsepower and 295 pound-foot of torque propelled the truck.
A flex-fuel capable 5.3-liter as well as 6.0-liter version Vortec V-8 engine was also offered on the 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Classic. Offered in LS or LT trim level, 2007 Silverado 1500 Classic line-up provided the choice of rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive.
