Get to Know the Silverado 1500 Trims Offering Wireless Apple CarPlay!


Our customers and Chevy drivers everywhere love just how much the interior comfort level has stepped up over the years. The truck shoppers of today are looking for connectivity features that are greatly enhanced, and frequently inquire about which trim levels will offer them the features they love most. The Motor Biscuit team cranked out a super cool blog last week that focused on the Chevy Silverado 1500, and which trims have the very savvy and productive additive of wireless Apple CarPlay.

This is the ingenious application that allows you to take your iPhone on the road with you and not miss anything that you’ve snagged up on your digital journey up to this point. With its seamless integration and the added benefit of Siri Eyes Free, you can easily enjoy everything your phone has to offer while driving safely. As more manufacturers have been making the sensible switch to this function, it has been growing in popularity and frequency of appearance. The 2023 Chevy Silverado comes in nine different trims, with the least expensive being the Work Truck model.

Up a level from the WT is the Custom trim, and then the LT and Trail Boss respectively. The RST, LTZ, and LT Trail Boss follow later, along with the High Country and ZR2. When properly equipped, the 2023 Silverado 1500 can tow upward of 13,000 pounds. The WT trim is the only one that does not include wireless Apple CarPlay as standard, but it’s still available as a viable option. Business Insider reported last month that Apple plans to roll out a game-changing update to Apple CarPlay in 2023, greatly expanding its capabilities. 

On top of providing the convenience of wireless Apple CarPlay, the 2023 Chevy Silverado also offers the short-range wireless connection capability of Bluetooth. Most models also come with a Wi-Fi hotspot, and the larger and larger screens that consumers are loving to appear with the option for a 13.4-inch touchscreen available on other trims. All 2023 Silverado trims also will come equipped with the means to provide a necessary and helpful watchful eye via Teen Driver, along with other advanced driver-assistance systems that include forward collision warning and automated emergency braking. 


The High Country trim level also has access to Super Cruise, GM’s semi-autonomous driving technology that takes control of the wheel on properly dialed roadways. If Super Cruise senses that you are properly alert, you will be moving forward without having to steer, which brings about an entirely new dimension of how the cars of the future will provide ways to enjoy the ride and free your mind to prepare for your kids’ next long-awaited sporting event or business meeting. 

Every bump, curb, and other obstacles you’ll encounter is scanned and anticipated by the hands-free driving system, which takes control of the wheel intelligently. We can’t wait to hear what great use you’ll make of your new Silverado: come down to visit us here at the Powerhouse and we’ll be happy to answer your questions and assist you with a test drive of the nation’s most durable and delicious Thanksgiving dinner-ready heavy-duty truck!
