September 20th, 2023 by

We’re about to unveil some intriguing hidden features of the 2024 Chevy Silverado. While these features might not be available on every trim level, they are sure to impress you with their functionality and convenience. So, let’s dive right in and uncover these hidden gems!

1. Key Fob Magic:

The Chevy Silverado’s key fob is more than just a key. It allows you to do much more than just lock and unlock your doors. Did you know you can press and hold the unlock button to lower all your windows? And to fold or unfold your side mirrors, simply press and hold the lock or unlock button, respectively. To enable these features, check the corresponding options in your vehicle’s settings.

2. Tailgate Control:

Controlling the power tailgate of your Silverado is a breeze. You have three options:

  • Use the button on the tailgate itself.
  • Double-tap the key fob button to lower it.
  • Push the button located near the tailgate, which allows you to close it with ease.

3. Customize Your Digital Cluster:

The 12.3-inch digital display cluster in the Silverado is highly customizable. You can select from four different layouts: classic, progressive, digital, and clean. The “clean” layout is a fan favorite. You can also tailor the information displayed on the left and right sides, giving you complete control over your driving data.

4. Enhanced Safety with Buckle to Drive:

Concerned about safety, especially with younger drivers? Enable the “Buckle to Drive” feature in your settings. With this feature on, your Silverado won’t shift out of park until all seat belts are buckled. It’s a great way to encourage everyone to buckle up before hitting the road.

5. Tailgate Tilt:

Parking in tight spots or navigating rough terrain? The “Reverse Tilt Mirror” feature is your friend. It automatically tilts the side mirrors down when you shift into reverse, providing you with a clearer view of what’s around your Silverado.

6. Passive Door Lock/Unlock:

Take control of your keyless access system with the “Passive Door Lock/Unlock” settings. Customize which doors unlock when you approach your vehicle and which doors lock when you walk away. You can even set it to honk the horn when locking for added confirmation.

7. Remote Start Comfort:

In hot weather, the “Remote Start Auto Cooled Seats” and “Remote Start Auto Heated Seats” features are a game-changer. Your Silverado will automatically cool or heat your seats when you use remote start, making your drive more comfortable from the get-go.

8. Hidden Storage Compartment:

Ever noticed that wood grain panel above your glove box? Surprise—it’s a hidden storage compartment! Push the button beneath the vent, and it opens up, providing extra storage space for your convenience.

9. Back Seat Hidden Storage:

Your rear passengers can enjoy hidden storage too. Behind the rear seats, there are concealed compartments for stashing away items like jumper cables, tie-downs, or other small essentials. Just pull the tab to access them.

10. Customized Driver Settings:

Lastly, don’t forget to explore the plethora of customization options in your vehicle’s settings menu. From personalizing your preferred display layout to configuring the behavior of your remote start, these settings allow you to tailor your Silverado to your unique preferences.

So there you have it—ten hidden features that make the 2024 Chevy Silverado even more versatile and user-friendly. Until next time, happy driving!
