New spy photos of the next Silverado

Here's a link to more/new photos of the next Silverado.

2014 Chevy Silverado redesign caught with new interior exposed

There's 2 or 3 good ones of the interior of the bunch.

I see a chrome bar or twin ring bar separating the headlights, IMO a good move, the last gen trucks for me suffered in the looks department cause of their front end, this one looks alot better even camo'd up.

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

The current truck suffers because of those clunky fender bulges, the mis-match of the top of the bed to the beltline, and the lack of a character line on the lower third of the body.

I agree, the front bumper also just lacked character. The only thing I really liked about the current silverado is the fender flairs. Those could be exagerated a bit more to make the truck have more lines. Chevy needs to dig into their past trucks and give the truck lines that were like the older ones but make it work in the newer porportions. I'm pretty sure there's enough talented designers or choppers inside and outside the company to come up with a few good concepts.

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

Is it me or does that interior look dated? Like late 90's to mid 2000's puffy rounded bland..

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

I can't beleive nobody else has noticed this! This truck has SIX LUGS!!! At first I thought it was a 2500 until I noticed the lug count. WHY is this significant? Because for the first time since the early 2000's 1500HD truck is the 1500 CREW CAB going to have a TRUE shortbed!!! Not the tiny *** one that is your only option now! The ONLY reason I bought an ext cab instead of a crew was because of the bed length, and I didn't want or need a 2500. Thanks for listening GM. Now don't screw it up on the Colorado, we want a normal length shortbed with the crew on that too!

As far as the interior, I think it looks crappy too, but I think that's because it's not done. It appears the overall shape, center stack, and gauges are there, but the rest is still being finessed... it appears the glovebox door has a style line going down the middle that doesn't translate to the dash, which makes me think it's not done.

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

As far as the interior is concerned, those pieces are just pre-production stuff.
It's all just shiny hard plastic. Not the finished stuff. So take those pics with a grain of salt.

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

I am not a fan of that lcd screen in the dash... it doesn't flow with the rest of the bezel...

To me, that doesn't seem like its going to be the "Upscale" interior... perhaps this is more the work truck interior??? If I'm going to spend $50k on a truck it better look nicer than that!

I think the new leather/vinyl body panels are pretty badass.

Amazing that people risk their careers over really dumb stuff.

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

Is it possible it was leaked to get some reaction out of it...? They kinda dropped the ball on the camaro interior and it was too late in the game to change it at the time... Might be early enough to still "tweak" it. However, I don't think it's the finished product anyway.

...and is nobody else excited about the bed thing?

Re: New spy photos of the next Silverado

Did anyone else notice that the interior shots are not even of the same truck in the exterior shots?

(Hint: look at the mirrors.)

Actually... If you look at the 4th pic you'll see a 2500 (the mirrors you're seeing in the interior pics) trailing behind the 1500 that's predominately shown in the exterior body pics
