Waldoch, Callaway unveil limited-run 2026 Silverado Launch Edition

Waldoch Crafts and Callaway Cars introduced a 100-unit 2026 Chevrolet Silverado Launch Edition that blends Callaway performance hardware with Waldoch customization. The co-branded truck marks the first product from the new partnership and points to more GM-based vehicles ahead.

Why it matters: - The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado Launch Edition is the first vehicle from the new Callaway-Waldoch partnership. - The limited run of 100 serialized trucks positions the model as both a collector vehicle and a showcase for the companies’ combined engineering and craftsmanship. - The truck also arrives as the current-generation Silverado nears the end of its lifecycle before the redesigned 2027 model.

What happened: - Waldoch Crafts Inc. and Callaway Cars Inc. announced the Launch Edition on Aug. 25, 2026. - The co-branded Silverado is built as a limited-production, performance-focused version of the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado. - The vehicle is powered by Callaway’s SC602 supercharged package.

The details: - The SC602 package modifies the Silverado’s 6.2L L87 engine to produce 602 bhp and 560 lb-ft of torque. - The performance package uses Callaway’s TripleCooled® 2650cc Roots-type supercharger system. - The Launch Edition includes a lowered performance suspension with a coil-over front design, double-adjustable dampers front and rear, and a reduced ride height. - The truck rides on Callaway-Waldoch 22-inch lightweight alloy wheels with Toyo Proxes ST III performance all-season tires in 305/45R22 sizing. - Braking hardware includes the Callaway Big Brake package with six-piston front calipers, 15-inch slotted rotors, and stainless-steel braided brake lines. - The Callaway Sport Exhaust system uses TIG-welded 304 stainless-steel construction, electronically controlled sport mode, and Callaway-etched quad exhaust tips integrated into the rear bumper. - Exterior details include a color-keyed custom grille with an illuminated Bowtie emblem and SC602 badging. - Waldoch added color-keyed rocker panel extensions. - The interior uses custom seat coverings combining leather, Alcantara and carbon-look materials with contrasting stitching. - The truck also includes Callaway and Waldoch embroidery and debossing, topographic Hydro-Graphics dash and door-panel trim, anodized aluminum pedal pads and door sill panels, and co-branded puddle lamps. - Every truck includes a serialized interior plaque, a VIN-etched under-hood plaque, and authenticity documentation from both companies. - The 100 trucks will be offered in Summit White, Black, Sterling Gray Metallic or White Sands, which is new for 2026. - Orders can be placed through Waldoch’s and Callaway’s network of authorized Chevrolet dealers. - The Launch Edition is based on 6.2L-equipped RST Silverado models sourced from Waldoch’s existing vehicle bailment pool. - Each vehicle carries Waldoch and Callaway 3-year/36,000-mile warranties in addition to applicable GM original-equipment warranties.

Between the lines: - The launch signals a deeper strategic partnership between two second-generation, family-owned specialty-vehicle companies. - Callaway and Waldoch framed the truck as a unified build, not a simple badge exercise, with both companies contributing to design, engineering, components and execution. - Pete Callaway called the Launch Edition the beginning of an exciting partnership, while Billy Waldoch said the collaboration reflects what two family-owned companies can create together. - The companies also said additional GM-based products, including specialty SUVs, are planned in the near future.

What's next: - Callaway-Waldoch expects to expand the partnership beyond the Silverado Launch Edition. - The next products are expected to include specialty SUVs built on GM platforms. - Buyers can get more information through Waldoch’s Launch Edition page or at Callaway’s website.
