Fortunately, the Silverado EV offers a GM-estimated driving range of up to 478 miles on select models. That's enough to handle commuting, road trips, weekend adventures, and the occasional detour. When it's time to recharge, available 350 kW DC Fast Charging can add a GM-estimated up to 120 miles of range in about 10 minutes.

Available Wide Open Watts unleashes up to 760 hp and 775 lbs. ft. of torque, launching this full-size pickup from 0-60 mph in less than 4.5 seconds. That's remarkably quick for something capable of hauling a small construction project. Dual Motor 4WD delivers power instantly to all four wheels, while available Super Cruise® allows hands-free driving—even while towing—on compatible roads. Then there's available Sidewinder™ steering, which lets the truck move diagonally at low speeds.

A factory-installed 2-inch lift, 35-inch all-terrain tires, Four-Wheel Steer, and available Sidewinder steering make it especially capable once the pavement ends.
