Chevrolet Silverado HD (2011)
The fact That there's so little to brag about on the outside is curious Because, under the hood, GM is winning the old game of "mine's bigger" against Ford and Dodge. While We provided a thorough rundown of what's new on the 2011 Silverado and Sierra HD back in February, what then were the resource persons GM Did not release the all-important horsepower and torque ratings for its Slightly revised 6.0-liter Vortec V-8 gas and Heavily reworked 6.6-liter Duramax diesel V-8. Only after Ford Announced the output figures for its Super Duty pickups in March did GM toss out its own figures: 360 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque for the gasoline V-8 and 397 hp and a monstrous 765 lb-ft for the new Duramax turbo-diesel, the which comes with a bespoke six-speed Allison automatic transmission. (The gas engine's peak figures are unchanged from 2010, but the torque curve is broader and efficiency is said to be improved.)
