All-new for 2007, the 2008 Chevy Silverado receives minor updates for the new model year. These include standard XM Satellite Radio on all models, availability of a power-adjustable driver's seat on Regular Cab models with a bench seat, brighter instrument pointers in the gauge cluster and two new exterior colors: Dark Cherry Metallic and Deep Ruby Metallic.

Also new is an integrated trailer brake controller that is available on Extended Cab and Crew Cab models. Previously, this feature was only available on heavy-duty models; it is integrated with the anti-lock braking system and provides immediate and measured brake force signaling to electric-controlled trailer brake systems. There is no requirement for external and/or aftermarket brake control systems. The brake controller switch is conveniently mounted on the lower-left section of the instrument panel.

The Silverado continues to feature two completely distinct interiors. The WT, LS and LT trim levels feature the pure pickup interior and the LTZ trim level features the same luxury-inspired interior that is currently available on Chevrolet's full-size sport utility vehicles.

The Silverado's powerful small-block V-8 engines deliver what is said to be the light-duty segment's highest-rated towing capacity for the higher-volume crew and extended cab models (10,500 pounds), horsepower (367 hp) and payload capacity (2,160 pounds).
