What is the 2024 Chevy Silverado HD ZR2 Bison?
For 2024, Chevy introduces two new Silverado HD trucks that are designed to provide both heavy-duty strength and high-speed off-road performance: the ZR2 and the ZR2 Bison. Chevy enthusiasts will recognize the ZR2 nameplate, which is known for its trail-friendly performance. The all-new, heavy-duty version of the ZR2 will be a Silverado 2500 HD truck that comes standard with features designed to battle the elements at speed, including 35-inch tires and Multimatic DSSV dampers.
Compared to the regular ZR2 truck, the ZR2 Bison was specially designed to deliver extra protection for avid off-road drivers. Produced in collaboration with American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) — the premier manufacturer of off-road products for overland adventure vehicles — the ZR2 Bison adds to the regular ZR2 lineup with exclusive AEV upgrades. These include a high-approach steel front bumper and a stamped-steel cut rear bumper, both of which sport integrated recovery points. It also includes stamped steel underbody skid plates for the front of the truck, steering rack, exhaust, and transfer case, shielding vulnerable hardware from potential damage. The ZR2 Bison also has unique style, with gloss-black 18-inch AEV wheels, exclusive exterior badging, and an AEV logo on the front seats!
How Powerful is the 2024 Chevy Silverado HD ZR2 Bison?
These trucks are built for more than off-road adventure, delivering major towing and hauling capabilities. Just like other Silverado HD trucks, the rugged ZR2 Bison is available with your choice of two heavy-duty engines:
- 6.6L gasoline V8 (401 horsepower, 299 lb-ft of torque)
- Duramax 6.6L turbo diesel V8 (470 hp, 975 lb-ft)
The Silverado HD ZR2 Bison was designed to provide a true heavy-duty workhorse performance! Properly equipped, this truck can tow up to 18,500 pounds.You can use these capabilities for work (like towing job-related machinery or a trailer full of supply pallets) or play (like hauling your family’s gigantic fifth-wheel camper into the wilderness).
The all-new ZR2 Bison can also do some heavy-duty hauling, transporting payloads of up to 3,013 pounds. That’s major muscle, and it also comes in handy on both the job (because you can haul substantial tools and materials) and outdoor playgrounds (you can transport everything you need for your gear-heavy adventures, like your kayak camping trips or a pair of dirt bikes).
Which features come with the 2024 Chevy Silverado HD ZR2 Bison?
These trucks come standard with high-octane features specially designed for off-road racing, including DSSV dampers and a factory lift. Also standard are 35-inch tall Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT mud-terrain tires, an AEV steel front and rear bumpers with recovery hooks, and boron-steel bash plates.
Chevy’s all-new off-road truck only comes in one form: a Silverado 2500 Crew Cab truck with a
