Ready to Roam: Chevy Introduces Silverado ZR2 Bison

The recent launch of the first-ever Silverado ZR2 took the pickup market by storm – rightfully so. As a follow-up, Chevrolet announced the first-ever special edition Silverado ZR2 Bison in collaboration with American Expedition Vehicles (AEV). This special collaboration has created a unique new Silverado tuned to unlock new heights in off-road capability. 

“The Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 Bison is the ultimate half-ton truck for backcountry adventures,” said AEV CEO and Founder Dave Harriton. “The Silverado ZR2 Bison checks all the boxes — robust stamped steel bumpers, complete underbody protection, a factory-tuned off-road suspension, and locking differentials front and rear. We are confident off-road enthusiasts are going to love this truck.”

This truck reaches new levels of off-road confidence also in part due to the high-quality steel integrated in the AEV bumpers and underbody protection. The AEV-stamped steel front and rear bumpers are constructed of 3-millimeter-thick steel and are powder and e-coated. The press-hardened steel used for the underbody skid plates is three-and-a-half times stronger than an equivalent cold-stamped high-strength steel plate and provides incredible resistance to underbody damage.

AEV, a premium off-road aftermarket manufacturer, has a strong track record in providing expedition accessories. The 2019 Colorado ZR2 Bison easily became the most popular special edition for the Colorado, giving the Silverado ZR2 Bison an incredible starting point for GM and AEV engineers.
