Safety Features and Ratings

Although both pickup trucks are equipped with modern safety systems, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 achieved a five-star overall rating by the NHTSA, whereas the 2022 Ram 1500 is still undergoing testing. Some notable safety features available for the Silverado 1500 are low-speed forward automatic braking, lane keep assist with lane-departure warning, front collision alert, and a safety alert driver seat.

Colors and Exterior

For 2022, Chevy's designers updated the Silverado with a new front fascia, grille, and lowered headlamps to make it bolder. Dark Ash, Sand Dune, and Glacier Blue Metallic serve as three new color possibilities. The RAM 1500 has a mildly updated version of the same style it always uses.

Engine and Capability

The standard 2022 Silverado 1500's 2.7-liter turbo engine will deliver 310 horsepower and 348 pound-feet of torque. Compare that to the RAM 1500, which now comes standard with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine that produces merely 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. That disparity in torque will definitely be felt in city driving, with the Silverado stepping ahead or making short, quick movements more easily.

In terms of technology and performance, the Silverado 1500 offers major benefits. Both vehicles are extensively customizable and offer a lot of luxurious additions on higher trim levels, but drivers who anticipate a lot from the base model may find more to love in the Silverado.
