How many seats does a Chevy truck have?
Most Chevy pickup trucks are configured to seat five passengers, though a two‑door Regular Cab seating three is also offered. As of 2024–25, the Silverado and Colorado lineups primarily use five‑seat crew or extended cabs, with Regular Cab options seating three.
Common seating configurations
Chevrolet organizes its pickups around three main cab styles, each offering a different passenger capacity.
- Regular Cab: typically three seats in a single front row; no rear seating.
- Extended/Double Cab: typically five seats (two up front, three in the rear).
- Crew Cab: typically five seats (two up front, three in the rear).
The five-seat setup is the standard for most modern Chevy pickups; the three-seat Regular Cab is the exception for those who need a smaller footprint.
Other factors that can affect seating
Beyond cab style, several options and older configurations can change the total number of seats.
- Front-seat type: some trucks offer a front bench seat (3 across) as an option, which can increase the total number of seats when paired with a rear bench seat in certain body styles. Modern Silverado and Colorado models most often use bucket seats in the front, keeping total at five.
- Cab naming and availability: Chevrolet has used terms like Regular Cab, Extended Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab; availability and naming can vary by model year and market.
- Model year and trim: rare, older configurations could offer different arrangements, including six-seat setups in theory (3 front, 3 rear) in some earlier generations.
Always check the exact configuration listed on the vehicle’s window sticker or in the owner's manual for your specific model year and trim.
Model notes
In the current Chevrolet lineup, the Silverado 1500 and related models predominantly offer three-seat Regular Cab options and five-seat Crew/Extended configurations. The Colorado line generally follows the five-seat pattern in crew cab layouts, with some older or extended cab variants offering different seating arrangements.
Summary
In short, the typical seating for a Chevy pickup is five passengers, with three-seat Regular Cab variants as the smaller alternative. When shopping, verify the exact seating configuration for your chosen cab style and year.
