BAY CITY, Mich. –– This past month the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) was held in Detroit with all of the foreign and domestic auto brands unveiling new production and concept vehicle models for 2018 and beyond. Chevrolet, of course, had their own display area in the Cobo Center where the NAIAS was held, with the new 2018 Colorado, Cruze, Camaro, Corvette, and Spark models on display for audiences to see. That's not all they had to offer fans of the bowtie-brand at the auto show, as Chevy formally debuted the all-new 2019 Silverado 1500 to the public and had a vehicle testing virtual reality experience. Read on for our recap of what Chevrolet got up to NAIAS!

Unveiling the 2019 Chevy Silverado at NAIAS

Chevrolet debuted the latest model of America's most dependable, longest-lasting pickup to the public at NAIAS, the all-new 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. This exceptional and well-designed pickup has improved performance and fuel economy with 8 specialized trim levels and six engine/transmission available options, including the all-new Duramax 3.0L inline-six diesel and new 5.3L and 6.2L V-8s with industry-first Dynamic Fuel Management. The new 2019 Silverado is also 450 pounds lighter than previous models for improved handling and has best-in-class cargo volume in every bed length. The 2019 Silverado also promises to come complete with a suite of innovative connectivity, safety, and design features for an incredible driver and passenger experience.

Experience Virtual Reality Vehicle Testing

NAIAS attendees were treated to a 4-D virtual reality unlike any other thanks to Chevy. The Chevrolet Virtual Dynamics Lab used VR headsets and moving seats to simulate experiencing riding in a new 2018 model vehicle as it is put through the rigors of quality testing on gravel roads, extreme temperature labs, and rock climbs. The video simulation even included a portion where you raced around the famed Milford Proving Ground. In addition to their miles and miles of road testing, Chevy also has their sedans, trucks, and SUVs tested in simulation chambers that can create different environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures, altitudes, humidity, and wind speeds. The Virtual Dynamics Lab was a fun and engaging way for the public to get a firsthand look at Chevy's commitment to high-intensity quality testing for their vehicles.

Chevrolet had a lot to offer those in attendance NAIAS and even unveiled the new 2019 Silverado 1500, the truck of the future!
