The fourth-generation Chevy Silverado broke cover in 2017 with a ton of new features, including state-of-the-art technology, and upgraded engines. But it's also a highly customizable truck now, with plenty of features available from Chevrolet Performance and Accessories. Chevy just launched a handful of concept vehicles to showcase these features and the RST Street proves that trucks can look like hot rods too.

Based on one of the Silverado's less expensive trims, the RST Street looks a bit more aggressive than the standard truck and it also rides lower than usual. Yes, while concept trucks usually ride higher for enhanced off-road capability, the RST Street was conceived for drivers who want a sportier truck. It also previews a new set of fender decals and carbon-fiber-look parts, so it won't be long until you will be able to customize one just like the concept in the photos.

What makes the Chevrolet Silverado RST Street Concept special

A quick glance at the front end and you can see that Chevy's main focus was to make the truck look more aggressive. This isn't authentic carbon though, just a concept carbon-look element that Chevy wants to offer soon.

The conceptual features continue onto the sides with custom graphics on the front fenders and carbon-look mirror caps. The decals on the fenders are dark grey with "Chevrolet Performance" lettering at the top.

Chevrolet also added larger, 22-inch wheels. These are painted in high-gloss black to match the graphics and the bumper inserts. It's here where we can also notice the molded splash guards mounted beneath the wheel arches. Around back, there's black lettering on the tailgate and a two-piece exhaust pipe from Borla. The exterior is rounded off by a one-piece hard tonneau cover from UnderCover.

The interior isn't as spectacular as the exterior, but it does feature premium all-weather floor liners with Chevrolet script in the front row, and carbon-fiber-look door handles and interior trim. A 200-watt powered subwoofer and 200-watt DSP Amp kit by Kicker turn the cabin into a concert hall.

The upgrade doesn't affect performance, so the concept boasts the same 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque as the standard model. Other upgrades include a cat-back exhaust system from Borla and six-piston Brembo brake upgrade for the front axle and a lowered suspension system. Chevy didn't provide any info on the suspension but mentioned that it's a concept part. As such, it could become available at a later date.
