The Silverado Hybrid is Chevrolet’s gasoline-electric hybrid half-ton pickup that was added to the Silverado line for 2005 and is the first full-size truck with hybrid propulsion technology for improved fuel economy. The Silverado Hybrid is powered by a standard Vortec 5300 5.3-liter V8 engine and a 4-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission coupled with the hybrid propulsion system which replaces the traditional starter motor and alternator with a compact 14-kw electric induction motor or starter generator integrated between the engine and transmission. The starter generator provides fast, quiet starting power and allows the gasoline engine to automatically start and stop under certain conditions to conserve fuel. The Silverado Hybrid also offers four 120-volt/20-amp electrical auxiliary power outlets located under the rear seat and in the pickup bed.
