The 2026 Chevy Silverado 1500 has 4 engines, and the base four-cylinder actually makes more torque than the V8 sitting right above it.
Broke down all 4, the 2.7L TurboMax, 5.3L V8, 6.2L V8, and the 3.0L Duramax diesel, as 2 head to head matchups instead of 4 separate choices. The 6.2L and the Duramax also tie at 13,300 lbs max towing, so that one comes down to power and sound versus torque and fuel economy, not the tow rating.
