Spy photographers have captured the 2019 Chevy Silverado testing on public streets wearing only thin camo.

In a move that’s been a hallmark of the Detroit Three to fool spy photogs, the Chevy emblem on the grille is taped up to resemble an oval. The grille itself has two thick central bars flanked by thinner horizontal slats.

A new styling flourish appears between the upper and lower parts of the 2019 Silverado headlamp assembly. What seems to be a ‘C’ shaped set of LEDs are seen under the test truck’s camo, appearing to line up nicely with the thick bars in the grille. This would be a great addition to the Chevy’s front fascia, filling up the vast yawning chasm of empty space between the current model’s razor-thin headlights and turn signals.

Executing a three-point turn to head away from the cameras, these camo’d trucks also give hints at the next Silverado’s rear styling. Twin hockey-stick shaped LEDs still seem to reside in the red lens of each taillight but they appear to be slightly asymmetrical, with the upper illumination slightly shorter than the bottom one. Currently, the upper and lower portions of the current Silverado taillight are roughly the same size.

The reverse lights appear to have migrated up to the middle portion of the lamp from their present location in the bottom corner. Integrated trailer wiring connectors are present and accounted for, and there appears to be a backup camera poking out through the camo on the tailgate.

The CHMSL is wider and thinner than the one found on current Silverado trucks, while the antenna for satellite radio and OnStar remains in its present off-center position. The rearview mirror on the lead pickup appears to have a daylight sensor on its anterior side, suggesting the presence of automatically dimming headlamps. One of the test trucks shown here has a sliding rear window.

Hubs remain of the six-lug variety, with Goodyear Wrangler rubber wrapping the rims. Dual exhaust outlets poke through the camo on the truck that is hightailing it away from the photographer.

Interestingly, that u-turn maneuver by one of the test drivers gives us a broad look at the entire side of the Silverado, revealing wheel wells with a slightly rounded appearance compared to the squared-off look on just about every Chevrolet half-ton since 1973. This may be some visual chicanery thanks to the camouflage, though.

There is an excellent chance we will see the 2019 Chevy Silverado in the metal at the upcoming North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

The big question is whether or not GM will turn heavily to aluminum, like Ford, to help its half-ton truck save weight, especially considering Chevy’s marketing campaign that denounces the aluminum F-150. We’ll have to wait and see.
