The New 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV

Chevrolet Silverado EV Performance & Specs

The numbers tell a story that will change your mind about electric trucks forever. The Silverado EV produces up to 775 lb-ft of max available torque with Wide Open Watts mode engaged. That's more pulling power than you'll find in most heavy-duty diesel engines. You feel that power instantly when you press the accelerator.

With 760 max available horsepower through Wide Open Watts, this truck moves with authority. The Silverado EV rockets from 0 to 60 in under 4.5 seconds when Sports Mode is engaged. Like last year, all this power comes from a dual-motor electric motor set on the iconic GM Ultium battery platform. With all-wheel drive, there's nothing your truck can't handle.

Chevrolet Silverado EV Capability

Capability is what differentiates a run-of-the-mill pickup from a true workhorse. The Silverado EV delivers in ways that redefine expectations. You're looking at up to 478 miles of range on a single charge. When you do need to power up, the GM-estimated 120 miles of range in just 10 minutes of charging keeps you moving.

You have options for charging, too. Plug in at home overnight for a full battery every morning, or use one of more than 200,000 charging stations across the country.

The Silverado EV can tow up to 12,500 pounds when properly equipped. Another interesting feature to note is Sidewinder mode. This technology lets you turn all four wheels in the same direction to move diagonally at low speeds.

Chevrolet Silverado EV Interior

Stepping inside the Silverado EV feels like entering the future of truck design. The top trim level pampers you with a beautiful Exclusive Black and Artemis interior featuring Red accent stitching. That's not to say the lower trims are basic. You still get that comfortable Evotex material.

Storage solutions are everywhere in this electric truck. The 10.7 cubic feet eTrunk with available power-up and power-down hood gives you secure, weatherproof storage up front. The All-Weather eTrunk Mat protects this space. You'll find plenty of additional storage throughout the cabin, including clever spaces under the seats.

Next, the available Panoramic fixed-glass roof transforms the cabin into an open, airy space. Climate control is as good as ever, with available ventilation and heating for the front seats. You have up to 8-way power seats for driver and passenger, as well as lumbar support.

Chevrolet Silverado EV Exterior

Chevrolet did a good job keeping the Silverado EV's exterior as close to the beloved gas-powered model as possible. It keeps the flowing lines and rounded front, as well as the imposing stance. The Silverado EV announces its presence with bold color choices, including Habanero Orange, Riptide Blue Metallic, and Polar White Tricoat.

Uplevel exterior LED lighting brightens your path and gives the truck a premium appearance. Rolling on available 22-inch wheels wrapped in up to 35-inch all-terrain tires, this truck looks as capable as it performs. Red tow hooks are optional but absolutely beautiful additions to the front end.

Of course, the Multi-Flex Tailgate is back, and it transforms how you use your truck bed. You can even fit items up to 10 feet 10 inches in length in the bed with the tailgate configured properly.

Chevy Silverado EV Technology and Safety

Technology in the Silverado EV goes beyond simple infotainment to become genuinely useful in your daily life. Power becomes portable with 11 outlets providing up to 10.2 kW of offboard power. One-Pedal Driving changes how you experience city driving. Lift your foot off the accelerator, and the truck slows down quickly under certain conditions. The available Regen on Demand system lets you control regenerative braking with paddle shifters.

As for infotainment, you get a 17.7-inch diagonal infotainment screen with Google built in as standard. The 11-inch diagonal Driver Information Center next to it keeps critical information where you need it. For those wanting the ultimate display, there's an available 14-inch diagonal Head-Up Display.

Your safety drives every design decision in the Silverado EV. Standard Chevy Safety Assist brings together multiple systems, including Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking. These features watch the road ahead and can apply the brakes if you don't react in time.

Available Super Cruise represents the next level of driving assistance. This hands-free driving technology works on compatible highways all over the country and even up in Canada.
