2021 Chevy Silverado

7 Fantastic Features of the New 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500

The 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 leads the industry in several categories and features an impressive lineup of built-in safety features. Boasting the best fuel efficiency in its class, Chevy designed the all-new Silverado to keep you moving safely well into the future. Here are seven fantastic features that showcase the very best of what's available in a pickup this year. 1. Automatic Emergency Braking When the vehicle is traveling under 50 miles per hour, this system will automatically engage the brakes in an emergency. The system works by using camera technology to scan the road ahead and can take action to prevent a crash if the driver doesn't react in time. 2. Lane Keep Assist If the driver becomes drowsy and begins drifting out of their lane, this system can be engaged. The feature scans the road for lane markers and will keep the vehicle positioned in the center of the appropriate lane once they're detected. 3. Front And Rear Park Assist Thanks to the latest technology, parking in forward or reverse has never been so safe. This system scans the environment surrounding the vehicle and will inform you about any objects or obstacles in the way. The system will even provide you with approximate distance estimates to any such objects. 4. Forward Collision Alert This system scans the road conditions ahead and can detect when there is the possibility of an imminent collision. If a possible accident is detected, the system will alert the driver so that appropriate action can be taken to avoid the crash. 5. Safety Alert Seat A genuinely intuitive next-generation safety feature, this system uses tactile vibrations in the driver's seat to alert to the direction of any potential accidents. If the system vibrates on the left side, there is a collision threat on the left side. If the vibration is on the right, then so is the potential accident. The seat can also vibrate on both sides at once if necessary. 6. Rear Cross Traffic Alert When backing out onto a road, this system will scan the area behind the vehicle and detect any oncoming traffic. If another vehicle is detected, the system will notify you so that you don't back out, causing an accident. This system makes it so that drivers can always back out safely. 7. Front Pedestrian Braking Another life-saving safety innovation. This onboard system scans the area ahead for pedestrians, and if someone is detected, the system will notify you. Should you be unable to stop the vehicle on time to avoid a collision, then the Automatic Emergency Braking system may autonomously engage hard braking if you are traveling at a speed below 50 miles per hour. With the jaw-dropping array of features built-in and all the dependability and performance you've come to expect from a Chevy, this new Silverado 1500 is the perfect blend of reliability and innovation.
