Ford might have made headlines with the new F-150 Raptor SuperCrew at Detroit, but Chevy’s Silverado is already available in four-door guise and now gets a special edition.
The Silverado Realtree Edition is based on the 1500 LTZ Z71 crew cab and borrows elements from the Raintree concept. The key point of difference compared to the standard version are the Realtree camouflage graphics offsetting the grey paint scheme.
Beyond the special exterior finish, the Silverado SuperCrew includes a set of 20-inch alloy wheels finished in black and wrapped in all-terrain tires. Other special components included are side steps and black bow tie emblems.
So far, no interior pictures have been released, but Chevrolet asserts that the Realtree logo has been embroidered on the front headrests and is complemented with a number of other Realtree badges and camouflage elements.
Customers of the Silverado Realtree Edition will have the opportunity to opt for either a 5.3-liter or 6.2-liter V8 engine, with power ranging between 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque for the smaller of the two V8s and topping out at 420 hp and 460 lb-ft. The standard Z71 off-road package includes an automatic locking rear differential, underbody protection, two tow hooks, a Hill Decent Control system and Rancho monotube shocks.
There’s no word on pricing yet, but we’ll find out before sales of the Silverado Realtree commence this coming spring.
