New 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV

Side View of the 2024 Silverado EV at Home

General Motors is investing in electric vehicle development at a breakneck pace, and it’s planning several new models over the next few years across nearly every major industry segment. Its first electric pickup, the Silverado EV, is coming in early 2024, bringing remarkable range, capability, and performance. Riding on GM’s Ultium EV Platform, the Silverado EV will offer up to 10,000 pounds of towing and 1,300 pounds of payload capability, and some configurations have a range estimate that reaches 450 miles on a charge.

Chevrolet will offer the Silverado EV in two trims to start: WT (Work Truck) and RST. The WT trim features more basic accommodations focusing on capability and toughness, while the RST brings more luxury and performance to the table. Chevrolet has noted that additional trims will be available in the future, including an off-road-oriented Trail Boss model. Still, it has not detailed the full Silverado EV lineup at this time. 

Pricing for the Silverado EV line starts above $50,000 and extends to more than $100,000 for top configurations. Remember that the early trims are often the most expensive, so later additions will likely come with a lower price tag. 

Performance

The Silverado EV RST First Edition is the most potent version of the truck available at launch. It offers up to 754 horsepower and 785 pound-feet of torque in the temporary Wide Open Watts Mode (WOW), which gives it a 0-60 mph time of less than 4.5 seconds. The Ultium EV platform integrates the batteries with the truck’s structure, providing a robust and rigid basis for the EV. An available adaptive air suspension system offers up to two inches of ride height adjustment, and wheel sizes range up to 24 inches. Chevy also offers four-wheel steering, and the truck comes standard with a tow/haul mode and other trailering tech.

Charging is lightning fast, as the Silverado EV can reach speeds of up to 350 kW, adding 100 miles of range in just ten minutes. It’s also available with a vehicle-to-load function, which lets the truck charge other EVs, power external electrical equipment, or act as an emergency backup generator for a home during a power outage. Owners have access to the MyChevy app, which offers navigation to charging stations, vehicle status, and more. 

Exterior

Unlike the gas-powered Silverado, which uses a traditional body-on-frame design, the Silverado EV’s novel architecture enabled a completely new look and design. The shape is vaguely reminiscent of Chevy’s Avalanche truck from the early 2000s, as it features a slanted C-pillar and more substantial bodywork than most traditional pickups. It’s a functional shape that Chevrolet said helps channel air more efficiently down the body sides, reducing drag and improving efficiency. The truck is available only in a crew cab configuration with four full-size doors, and the front and rear overhangs are shortened for a more aggressive look. 

The Silverado EV has a five-foot, eleven-inch bed, and the RST trim has an innovative mid-gate system that opens additional storage between the cab and bed. In the front, the truck offers a lockable, waterproof front trunk (frunk), and the RST model has Chevy’s useful Multi-Flex Tailgate, which lets it carry items up to 10 feet, 10 inches long. 

Interior

The crew cab Silverado EV seats five people, and its second-row seat is pushed rearward to open more space for passengers over six feet tall. Interior storage is generous, with over seven gallons of center console space in the RST model, and the truck has customizable spaces that make carrying small items much more secure. A 40/60 folding second-row seat lets owners move large cargo items while retaining a passenger seat. 

Technology

Chevy equips the Silverado EV with an 11-inch infotainment screen and an 8-inch digital gauge cluster. There’s an available 17-inch touchscreen, 11-inch gauge cluster, and 14-inch head-up display. The feature-rich infotainment system runs Google built-in, which brings Maps, the Google Play Store, and many other features, but Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are not available. Chevrolet said the system has a new software platform that enables rapid over-the-air updates and gives the automaker the ability to add new features over time. 

Safety

Chevrolet hasn’t detailed all of the Silverado EV’s safety features yet but has noted several advanced driver aids as standard or available equipment. Super Cruise will be available for some configurations, bringing hands-free driving functionality for use on limited-access highways nationwide. We’ll also likely see Chevy’s advanced driver-aids package, which has forward collision warnings, automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, lane departure warnings, and more. The Silverado EV is too new to have received crash testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
