The World of West Chevrolet

Tuesday, November 9, 2021


The annual SEMA show is where brand-new concepts, designs that defy expectations, and new-feature rich vehicles are glamorously displayed. The Chevy Beast Concept that made its debut this year focused on the current popularity of high-performance off-road trucks and took it to the next level.

Under the hood is a 650-horsepower supercharged LT4 crate engine, which sends power to all 37-inch tires with a two-speed transfer case and a 10-speed automatic transmission. The tires are wrapped around 20-inch Raceline TRM260M Avenger True high-grade beadlock wheels. The Big Brake Upgrade system offers discs at all four corners and segment-leading six-piston Brembo calipers. 


This concept’s frame began with a regular Silverado chassis and was then widened to create what eventually grew into this visionary concept. The tubular doors and 13.5 inches of ground clearance are a dream for the Beast’s approach angle, which is a respectable 45 degrees. Much of what can be accomplished in a vehicle like this begins with the suspension, and this killer concept boasts a custom long-travel variety that allows the front wheels to travel a maximum of 12 inches while the back can extend three and a half inches further.

The Beast is capable of  desert running, and you won’t have to worry about the tires, with two spares ready on supplemental 20-inch wheels. Not every single truck owner needs to have the ability to conquer Moab or Death Valley, but knowing you have the goods to do so will bring a smile to your face!
