The Chicago Auto Show may not be playing the host to debut some internationally famous automobiles but the event is doing pretty good by unveiling commuters that really matter to the Americans, Chevrolet Silverado Heavy-Duty being one of them.



The truck’s facelifted 2011 model broke cover at Chicago reflecting the design team’s efforts which claims to have focused on 11 different points to improve the vehicle. Noticeable changes include stiffer frames which can now handle 16,000 lbs, a sleeker looking front chrome bumper, a new grille and a power dome-styled hood. The 2011 model will also see the return of the 6.6-liter Duramax diesel engine which commits reduced emission numbers. The overall improvement in the engine helps the truck dash to 60mph in less than 9 seconds.
