When looking at the 2025 Silverado 1500, there’s a few options, but the WT and the LT tend to stand out due to their lower price tags. We’ll be taking a look at which areas both trims excel at so that when you’re on the lot, you’ll be well informed and ready to get your next truck.
Key takeaways
- The two trims come with the same standard engine, able to tow up to 9,500-pounds, making them both solid trucks that are capable.
- If you’re wanting something with a tiny bit more to help make the ride more comfortable, then the LT is the way to go.
- If you’re looking for something that is barebones, then the WT is that trim, and for the price, you can’t really find a model that is better than it.
Why Should I Buy a 2025 Chevy Silverado 1500 WT?
This trim is designed to be a Work Truck, as the name implies. While it isn’t the most advanced trim there is, it is capable. One area where the WT is more attractive is the price, as it comes in at the low starting price of $48,195.
While it isn’t the most luxurious, it does come with a 7-inch screen.The WT does come with wireless phone connectivity so you don’t need to have extra cables in the cab. The WT also comes with vinyl seats, as well as manual features, which help cut down on cost, making it an even more affordable option. It is there to help you do the work you need to do without the added fluff.
Why Should I Buy a 2025 Chevy Silverado LT?
If you’re wanting something that comes with more creature comforts, then the LT is what you want. Some of the stand out features on this trim are the larger 13.4-inch screen as well as wireless phone connectivity.
For the interior comfort, you can find heated seats for the front row for those early morning or late night jobs. It also has a heated steering wheel, helping you remain comfortable. When the weather gets hot, you can also enjoy the dual-zone automatic climate control. This makes sure that you and your passenger get to stay at your preferred temperature without needing to compromise. Thanks to these features, the LT comes with a higher $55,995 price tag.
The last area where this trim adds some comfort is the remote start, making it easy to get in and go, without the added fuss of fumbling with your keys.
Where are the WT and LT the same?
While there are some differences, there are some similarities. Both the WT and the LT come with a TurboMax engine. This one is a 2.7L I4 that makes 310 horsepower, and 430 lb-ft of torque, allowing you to tow up to 9,500-pounds. While this isn’t the strongest, it is very efficient, able to get up to 19 MPG as per the EPA rating.
LT trim advantages over WT
While the WT is a great work truck, it does suffer from that a tiny bit too, and that’s where the LT comes in. While they both can get the same work done, the LT does it with more comfort, and if that’s important to you, we get it. The WT does shine if you’re needing something that is only for work, or even fleet use, as it is quite a bit cheaper.
