- BY MIKE SELF

CHEVROLET recently introduced the 2024 Silverado EV, the reimaginin­g of the brand’s best-selling nameplate. It includes:

■ Expected Gm-estimated 400-mile range on a full charge offered on Work Truck (WT) and RST

■ Up to 664 horsepower with more than 780 lb-ft of torque in available max power Wide Open Watts Mode on RST, enabling a Gm-estimated 0-60 mph time of less than 4.5 seconds

■ Standard DC fast charging (up to 350kw) on WT and RST

■ Up to 10.2kw of offboard power on WT and RST with optional equipment

■ Up to 10,000 pounds of maximum trailering with up to 1,300 pounds of payload on RST Developed from the ground up as a fully electric truck on GM’S advanced Ultium EV Platform, the Silverado EV offers a boundarybr­eaking combinatio­n of capability, performanc­e and versatilit­y, along with advanced technologi­es that can evolve the vehicle over time.

At launch, the Silverado EV will be available in two configurat­ions, an RST First Edition and a fleetorien­ted WT model. Each will offer a comprehens­ive suite of standard and available safety technologi­es. The Silverado EV harnesses the power of the Ultium Platform, which is the foundation of GM’S EV strategy and the driver of the company’s vision for a zeroemissi­ons future.

In spring 2023, the Silverado EV will debut a WT model offering GM’S longest range battery with an expected Gm-estimated range of over 400 miles on a full charge. In fall 2023, a fully loaded RST First Edition model, also delivering a 400-mile range, will debut with an MSRP of $105,000 + DFC. After production ramps up, Chevrolet will unleash the full Silverado EV portfolio, including WT (with a starting at MSRP of $39,900 + DFC), RST, Trail Boss and more.

Customers will have the ability to content the truck across various price ranges, with MSRPS around $50,000, $60,000, $70,000, $80,000 and more, allowing them to choose the truck that meets their capability and pricing needs.
