In other automotive news, the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 gets precious few updates for the new model year, but the half-ton pickup truck does get a sporty, street-styled special edition for a little extra edge in both appearance and performance. Its turbocharged 2.7-liter TurboMax four-cylinder engine puts out 310 horsepower and 430 pounds-feet of torque, channeled through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Standard features include 20-inch gloss-black wheels, all-terrain tires, all-weather floormats, black assist steps, a spray-in bedliner and six paint options. The RST Select will be available on crew-cab models with rear- or four-wheel drive, and on RWD double-cab models.
