Specifications
The 10L80 transmission features a 4.70:1 first gear ratio for strong off-the-line launches and a 0.64:1 tenth gear to enhance fuel efficiency during highway cruising. Designed for rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive trucks and SUVs, it is engineered for high-load applications, with torque capacity commonly rated around 460 lb-ft, and capable of handling approximately 600–650 lb-ft depending on calibration and vehicle application. The transmission weighs about 230 lbs, uses an aluminum case for strength and weight savings, and requires DEXRON-VI (or ULV, depending on model year) automatic transmission fluid to support its advanced clutch control and thermal management systems.
The GM 10L80 uses a closely stepped 10-speed gear set to balance acceleration, drivability, and fuel efficiency, with ratios of 4.70:1 (1st), 2.99:1 (2nd), 2.15:1 (3rd), 1.77:1 (4th), 1.52:1 (5th), 1.28:1 (6th), 1.00:1 (7th direct drive), 0.85:1 (8th), 0.69:1 (9th), and 0.64:1 (10th overdrive), along with a 4.87:1 reverse gear. This wide ratio spread provides strong low-speed torque multiplication for launching and towing, while the multiple overdrive gears reduce engine RPM at highway speeds, improving fuel economy, reducing noise, and enhancing overall efficiency in rear- and four-wheel-drive truck and SUV applications.
Transmission Variants
Chevrolet Silverado 1500 (2019–2025)
In the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, the 10L80 transmission delivers strong launch performance and smooth, efficient shifting across a wide range of engine options. Its closely spaced gear ratios improve acceleration and towing capability, while multiple overdrive gears help reduce engine RPM on the highway, enhancing fuel economy and overall drivability for both work and daily use.
GMC Sierra 1500 (2019–2025)
The GMC Sierra 1500 uses the 10L80 to balance power, refinement, and efficiency in light-duty truck applications. Designed to handle high torque loads, the transmission provides confident towing performance and responsive acceleration, while its advanced shift logic and overdrive gearing contribute to a quieter, more efficient highway cruising experience.
Cadillac Escalade / Escalade ESV (2018–2025)
In the Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, the 10L80 transmission supports both high-output gasoline and diesel engines, delivering smooth, precise shifts under luxury and high-load driving conditions. Its wide ratio spread enhances low-speed performance for towing and passing, while the upper overdrive gears reduce engine speed at cruising speeds, maintaining refinement, efficiency, and comfort expected in a full-size luxury SUV.
