Side: updated test

Tested vehicle: 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Crew Cab 4wd
Rating applies to 2019-25 models

The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab were redesigned for the 2019 model year. Two tests of the Silverado were conducted because the rear passenger data acquisition system failed during the first test. Driver dummy injuries, rear dummy restraints and kinematics and structural ratings are based on both tests. The rear dummy injury values are based only on the second test.
