RST (Rally Sport Truck) represents Chevrolet’s street-focused performance philosophy that dates back to the original Rally Sport package introduced on the 1967 Camaro. Unlike off-road focused trims, the RST prioritizes urban agility and highway performance while maintaining full-size truck capability. For 2026, Chevrolet introduces the Silverado 1500 RST Select Edition, a special package that bundles premium features with the efficient TurboMax engine to create one of the most compelling value propositions in the full-size truck segment.
Starting at $48,110, the RST Select transforms your Silverado into a performance-oriented truck that seamlessly transitions from city streets to work sites in Independence. The RST Select Edition targets drivers who need workhorse DNA with modern street appeal—perfect for weekend adventurers and daily commuters who want their truck to look as capable as it performs.
What Makes the RST Select Edition Special?
The 2026 Silverado 1500 RST Select Edition bundles five popular features into one package while offering a significant price advantage over selecting these items individually. Chevrolet offers a substantial package discount, making premium features more accessible to buyers who want RST styling without the higher price tag of fully loaded models.
Key Features of the Silverado 1500 RST Select Package:
- 20-Inch High Gloss Black Wheels:
The Select Edition comes standard with 20-inch high-gloss black painted aluminum wheels that deliver aggressive street presence. These wheels perfectly complement the RST’s sporty aesthetic while providing a substantial upgrade over standard wheel options.
- 275/60R20 All-Terrain Tires:
Wrapped around those black wheels are all-terrain blackwall tires that provide versatile performance whether you’re navigating city streets, highways, or occasional off-pavement excursions. This tire choice balances on-road comfort with light off-road capability.
- 13.4-Inch Diagonal Touchscreen:
The Select Edition includes Chevrolet’s massive 13.4-inch diagonal touchscreen display paired with a 12.3-inch reconfigurable Driver Information Center. This dual-screen setup delivers technology typically reserved for luxury vehicles, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, plus available Google built-in services.
- All-Weather Floor Liners:
Completing the package are front and rear all-weather floor liners featuring the Chevrolet brand logo and textured anti-slip patterns that trap debris and water. These liners protect your interior investment from the elements and daily wear.
- Chevytec Spray-On Bedliner:
Protecting your truck bed from scratches, dents, and rust, the included spray-on bedliner adds both functionality and value. This factory-applied bed protection ensures your Silverado stays work-ready while maintaining resale value.
- 4-Inch Black Round Assist Steps:
The distinctive black tubular assist steps provide easier cab access while enhancing the truck’s sporty appearance. These steps match the RST’s body-color theme and provide secure footing in all weather conditions.
The 2.7-Liter TurboMax Engine: Best-in-Class Torque
The Silverado 1500 RST Select Edition comes exclusively with Chevrolet’s turbocharged 2.7-liter TurboMax four-cylinder engine. While some truck traditionalists might hesitate at a four-cylinder in a full-size pickup, the numbers tell a compelling story:
- Best-in-class 430 lb-ft of torque
- Up to 9,500 lbs maximum towing capacity
- Fuel economy: ~18 mpg city / ~21 mpg highway (2WD)
- 0-60 mph: Approximately 6.8 seconds
- 310 horsepower at 5,600 rpm
Chevrolet Technology That Connects You
Modern truck buyers expect their vehicles to serve as mobile command centers, and the Silverado 1500 RST delivers with cutting-edge connectivity features. The 13.4-inch touchscreen provides an intuitive interface for all vehicle functions, while wireless smartphone integration eliminates cable clutter. Available Google built-in compatibility brings Google Assistant for voice control, Google Maps for native navigation, and access to select apps right from the center display.
The 12.3-inch reconfigurable Driver Information Center allows drivers to customize their gauge displays to prioritize the information most relevant to their driving style and current task. From towing metrics to fuel economy data, this digital cluster presents information clearly and attractively.
