The 30 Most Powerful Trucks on the Road

2018 and 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD – 910 lb.-ft.

The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD offers multiple engines, including the 6.6-liter Duramax V8 that will maximize your torque at 910 pound-feet. This turbodiesel engine can be paired with dual-rear-wheel or single-rear-wheel configurations. In addition to that impressive torque, the Duramax also gives this Silverado 445 horsepower, controlled via a 6-speed automatic from Allison. Use this torque to tow up to 20,000 pounds with conventional towing or 23,300 pounds with a gooseneck or fifth-wheel. Before the new line of 4500 and 5500 pickups in 2019, this was the go-to Chevy workhorse.
