You may have noticed more electric vehicles in Tulsa lately, but electric pickup trucks are still a rare sight. That’s about to change with the arrival of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV.
Chevrolet has been making big moves into the EV market recently with new models like the Equinox EV and Blazer EV SUVs. Now Chevy is going even bigger and bolder with a full-sized, fully electric pickup truck. This marks the first time Chevrolet has ever offered an electric pickup. It’s set to revolutionize the industry.
This guide will serve as your introduction to this game-changing addition to the Chevy truck lineup. We’ll explore all the key specs, features, and more that make the 2024 Silverado EV such an impressive vehicle. We’ll also invite you to visit our Research Hub to help determine if this revolutionary electric truck could be the right fit for you.
With its performance specs, you may think the 2024 Silverado EV skimps on interior roominess. But it’s just the opposite. The cabin feels downright palatial and oozes luxury.
In the front row, the driver and passenger enjoy thickly padded vinyl bucket seats with 12-way power adjustments, including lumbar support. Both front seats are heated and ventilated, too. The rear outboard seats are also heated, keeping all occupants comfortable in any weather. Dual-zone automatic climate control adds to the first-class environment.
Make no mistake, this is a true full-sized truck. Front headroom measures 43.9 inches while rear passengers enjoy 38.7 inches of headroom. On the legroom front, you get 44.8 inches up front and a full 44.3 inches in back. The interior feels even more massive thanks to the standard fixed Panoramic glass roof. It bathes the cabin in natural light and enhances the feeling of airy openness.
One look at the 2024 Silverado EV reveals this is no traditional boxy pickup. Its futuristic body has curvy lines that could have come straight from a sci-fi movie set. Adding to the functionality is a Multi-Flex Midgate with a handy pass-through. This allows you to fold the rear seats down and extend the truck’s bed right into the cabin. In this configuration, you can haul items up to 10 feet, 10 inches long.
With the rear seats upright, maximum Cargo Box Volume measures 56.7 cubic feet. Decent for most pickup needs. Since this is an EV, Chevrolet also equipped it with an eTrunk with 10.7 cubic feet of volume, giving you lockable storage space both in front and in the rear.
Despite its radical styling, the 2024 Silverado EV retains serious truck capabilities. With 8.9 inches of ground clearance and a 21.7-degree approach angle, it can traverse rugged off-road terrain or cruise paved city streets with equal ease. For the initial launch, Chevy keeps things simple with just two exterior color choices: Summit White or Black.
The sheer amount of technology onboard the 2024 Silverado EV is astonishing. Anchoring it all is the 17.7-inch diagonal touchscreen display with Google built-in. It delivers intuitive control of the infotainment, navigation, and more. A premium 7-speaker Bose audio system with a Rich bass subwoofer ensures your tunes sound crystal clear.
The myChevrolet mobile app adds even more high-tech convenience. It helps you smartly route your travels based on remaining EV range, provides real-time EV charging station locations, allows remote vehicle control functions and enables in-app payment options too.
Other cabin tech includes wireless device charging, an 11-inch diagonal color Driver Information Center, and the amazing Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance system for highway driving.
All 2024 Silverado EVs come standard with Chevy Safety Assist. This comprehensive suite of safety technologies includes Automatic Emergency Braking with pedestrian detection. There is also Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning and Following Distance Indicator for heightened awareness on the highway.
Adaptive Cruise Control tops off the safety roster by automatically maintaining your set speed and distance behind the vehicle ahead.
Typically, different trim levels feature varying amounts of standard and optional equipment within a given model range. However, since this marks the very first model year for the Silverado EV, there is just one well-equipped trim being offered: the RST.
Chevrolet has stated that additional trims will join the lineup in the coming model years. Future buyers can anticipate new variants, including the mileage-minded WT, off-road-themed Trail Boss, and base LT, to provide expanded choices.
RSTAs the sole 2024 trim level, the RST brings all the features highlighted so far. It also rolls on head-turning 24-inch aluminum wheels wrapped with all-season blackwall tires. An eTrunk underhood storage bin (also known as a “frunk”) maximizes cargo versatility. The Electronic Precision Shift transmission teams with One Pedal Driving to allow stronger regenerative braking that sends more energy back to the battery. A button-based drive interface includes a dedicated button to activate One Pedal Driving mode between drives. Next, the Continuous Damping Control suspension analyzes conditions and adjusts accordingly every two milliseconds for optimal handling. A few additional RST niceties include a 3-month SiriusXM Platinum satellite radio trial subscription, in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot, Universal Home Remote and a heated flat-bottom steering wheel. The RST also features a 14-inch multicolor Head-Up Display for keeping your eyes focused ahead. |
