TM TV: Towin’ With The GM Silverado Hybrid

By Chuck Cage

We drive an early version of the Silverado hybrid pickup — due out in the first half of next year — and con GM into hooking a 20′ boat behind it to find out if it can tow. Don’t miss our full hands-on post with the details.

    looks like a boutique option. What I can’t stand is that american automaker companies act like making a diesel engine is so much more expensive when all they need to do is make them more available to improve the economy of scale and preferably in 5 or 6 cylinder (3.5-4 liter capacity turbo diesel models. When we see a turbo diesel hybrid then I’ll consider it. The MD/Dodge Sprinter gets somewhere around 25mpg, I doubt the silverado can match that…

    where are the small and mid-size trucks with high efficiency turbo-diesel engines?

    Regulated out of USA, particulate emissions (way to go EPA) Go look in the rest of the world. Toyota makes an awesome little diesel.
