2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV

2024 Silverado 1500 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. Silverado EV has an electrified combination of performance and capability with up to 10,000 lbs. of max towing – allowing you to hitch up and hit the road with ease. An impressive GM-estimated 440-Mile Range, more standard range than any competitor lets you go as far as you want. 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.

2024 Silverado 1500 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 midgate 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.

2024 Silverado EV 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.

2024 Silverado EV Technology and Safety

Chevy equips 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. 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).

The Multi-Flex Tailgate

Available on all model levels, the Multi-Flex Tailgate offers six different functions to help improve loading, unloading and accessing the cargo bed. Primary Gate: Opens from the key fob, a switch inside the truck or a button on the gate. Primary Gate Load Stop: Helps prevent extra-long items from sliding out of the bed. Easy Access: The inner gate folds down, allowing you to reach farther into the bed. Full-Width Step: The inner gate folds down into a large step for easy access, capable of holding up to 375 lbs. Inner Gate Load Stop: Helps prevent second-tier items from sliding out of the bed. Inner Gate with Work Surface: When opened, provides a place for a laptop or blueprints, as well as second-tier loading. Additionally, Silverado EV offers the Multi-Flex Midgate® that allows room for items up to 10 feet 10 inches. This versatile Multi-Flex Midgate® with pass-through provides flexible configurations that allow you to expand the load floor of the truck bed into the cab so you can carry those large, bulky and odd-shaped items.
