Chevrolet Silverado ZR2: Ultimate travelling companion

Muscat: Since its launch in the Middle East a year ago, the all-new Chevy Silverado ZR2 has earned an almost legendary reputation among off-road motoring buffs as a durable, versatile and powerful truck.

On the one hand, ZR2 exceeds the expectations of adventure-lovers, given especially the opportunities for remote-travel, off-roading and camping. On the other, its refined design and new technology options, coupled with its unmatched muscular performance, turns this off-road truck into the ultimate travel companion of motoring aficionados.

The culmination of an extensive makeover across all trims, the Silverado ZR2 has emerged as Chevrolet’s new flagship off-road truck. It comes with an enhanced exterior design, expressive interior, ramped-up technology integration and performance enhancement. Embellishing the exterior are LED headlights, daytime running lights, front fog lights, high-mounted brake light, and a sleek exhaust system.

Other distinguishing features in the ZR2 include a new black hood insert, a unique grille with integrated lighting and a “flow-tie” emblem, wheel flares, ZR2 badges, unique 18-inch wheels and multiflex tailgate.

Exemplifying the race-proven off-road performance of the Silverado brand, the ZR2 is powered by a standard 6.2L V-8 engine, teamed with 10-speed automatic transmission. At the same time, cutting-edge stability and safety features ensure that the ZR2 can balance driving comfort with rugged performance even with a top payload of 553 kg and 4,000 kg in tow.

Inside the cabin, the 2022 Chevy Silverado ZR2 is fashioned with high-end appointments like leather-trimmed seating and stylish dark trim. Plus, a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument panel and 13.4-inch touchscreen help you to stay connected and comfortable while on the road. Other standard highlights include: Centre console with T-shaped electronic shifter, 13-inch diameter head-up display, Crew-cab body style for expansive passenger space, 13.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bose sound system, Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Built-in Google voice assistance.

As one can expect from any new Chevrolet vehicle, the Silverado ZR2 is armed with Chevy Safety Assist systems. This suite of innovative driver-assistive safety systems include Adaptive Cruise Control, automatic emergency braking, forward-collision warning, and many more — features that are also designed to help the driver tow with complete confidence. A digital rear view camera and bed-view camera augment overall safety.

The expansive truck bed of the ZR2 is suitable for all kinds of cargo loads that will leave no scratches, thanks to the Chevytec Spray-on bed-liner that comes with the truck.

The Chevrolet Silverado line-up, together with its new off-road flagship trim ZR2, are on display at showrooms of OTE Group, exclusive distributors of Chevrolet vehicles, distributed across the Sultanate of Oman.
