“The all-electric Chevrolet Silverado full-size pickup is designed from the ground up to be an EV, harnessing the Ultium platform and the Silverado’s proven capability,” Michael MacPhee, brand director, Chevrolet Canada, said in a press release. “The Silverado EV is redefining the boundaries of the full-size pickup segment, taking what you thought was possible and completely breaking the mould.”

2024 Silverado EV RST First Edition Performance

We have very high expectations for the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV. It won’t be the only electric truck on the market, but it will make a strong case for being the best. Current estimates from the manufacturer say that the 2024 Silverado EV will be able to travel up to 640 kilometres on a single full charge. When the proper settings are in place, the Silverado EV’s electric powertrain will make up to 660 horsepower and 780 pound-feet of torque. Additionally, the electric truck will be able to accelerate to highway speeds in less than 4.5 seconds. 

Fast-charging equipment is standard equipment and 10.2 kW offboard power is available with optional equipment. 

Towing & Cargo Hauling Specs

A lot of attention is going to be paid to the truck’s electric powertrain and its blistering performance scores. However, at the end of the day, the 2024 Silverado EV has to perform like a traditional Chevy truck platform. Up to 590 kg of cargo can be hauled in the bed of the electric Silverado pickup truck. When it’s properly equipped, it will be able to tow as much as 4,534 kg (10,000 lbs.). 

Standard Equipment for the 2024 Silverado EV RST

The high-tech nature of the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV requires high-tech features and equipment. Chevy is pulling out all the stops when it comes to equipping the electric Silverado. When the new truck goes on sale, it will feature:

  • Four-wheel steering
  • Automatic Adaptable Air Suspension
  • Multi-Flex Midgate
  • Multi-Flex Tailgate
  • 17-inch LCD infotainment screen
  • Available Super Cruise

One of the most innovative new features for the 2024 Silverado EV is the Multi-Flex Midgate. The rear partition of the truck can be lowered to make the cargo bed more accommodating for longer items. When the midgate is lowered, items up to 3 metres (10 feet) can be held in the back of the Silverado EV.
