Chevrolet and SVE have teamed up to create a pickup that’s anything but ordinary: the limited-edition 2026 Yenko SC Silverado. This truck isn’t just another trim — it’s a full-blown beast on wheels. Under the hood sits a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 pumping out exactly 1,000 horsepower. That’s not just impressive; it’s a direct challenge to anything else in the segment.

One of the most notable features? A six-speed manual transmission paired with rear-wheel drive — a rare combo in today’s high-powered pickup market. Neither Ford nor Ram offer anything like it, making this a dream machine for purists who love raw driving excitement. All that power goes to the rear wheels, and handling this monster is definitely not for the faint of heart.

SVE didn’t stop at the engine. It’s packed with forged internals, upgraded cylinder heads, a massive supercharger, and an enhanced boost system. Thrill-seekers will appreciate the stainless-steel dual exhaust, while Brembo six-piston brakes and oversized rotors keep things under control. The suspension was tuned too: the front sits 2 inches lower, the rear 5 inches lower, with Fox Performance shocks ensuring the truck handles all that power responsibly.

On the outside, the Yenko SC Silverado stands out with bold stripes, a massive hood marked “1000 HP,” 22-inch alloy wheels, and Nitto tires. Badges from SVE and Yenko SC make it clear — this is no ordinary Silverado.

Interested buyers can order through Chevrolet dealers or directly from SVE. Price? Around $127,000, including the base Silverado and the full upgrade package. The truck also comes with a three-year/36,000-mile warranty on the engine and supercharger.
