AROUND THE SILVERADO EV

WIDE OPEN WATTS (WOW)

With dual electric motors on the front and rear axles, the Chevrolet Silverado EV RST produces over 660 hp and 780 lb-ft of torque in Wide Open Watts (WOW) mode, propelling the truck from 0–96 km/h in under 4.5 seconds.

eTRUNK

Without a traditional engine, the Chevrolet Silverado EV offers extra cargo space, including a lockable, watertight front trunk (frunk) to safely store valuables out of sight.

EFFICIENT DESIGN

The Silverado EV’s front end is engineered to channel air along the body, reducing drag and turbulence. This efficient design helps the truck achieve one of the lowest drag coefficients among full-size production pickups, boosting performance and range.

SPACE FOR ALL

The Chevrolet Silverado EV is available exclusively as a crew cab, with a second row positioned to provide ample legroom—even for passengers over 6 feet tall.

FIXED PANORAMIC ROOF

For the first time, the Silverado offers a fixed panoramic glass roof, bringing natural light into the cabin for a spacious, open feel. The tinted glass also helps filter sunlight, keeping the interior comfortable and protected.

REGEN ON DEMAND, ONE-PEDAL DRIVING

These driver-controlled braking systems convert the Silverado EV’s forward momentum into electricity, helping maximize range. Regen on Demand uses a steering wheel paddle to slow the truck to a complete stop without the brake pedal, while One-Pedal Driving lets the accelerator pedal do the same, giving the driver precise control over speed and deceleration.

SUPER CRUISE

The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV comes with the latest Super Cruise technology, now featuring automatic lane changing, where the system can detect the optimal time and safely perform a lane change. Super Cruise is available on over 320,000 km of compatible roads across the U.S. and Canada, making hands-free highway driving easier and more convenient than ever.

REAR WHEEL STEERING

The Silverado EV’s 4-wheel steer system improves maneuverability and stability. At low speeds, the rear wheels turn opposite the front wheels, reducing the turning radius for easier parking and tight turns. At higher speeds, the rear wheels turn in the same direction as the front, enhancing stability and handling—especially when towing a trailer.

 

DIGITAL KEY

With the Bluetooth and Ultra-Wideband-enabled Digital Key, owners can use their smartphone as the key for their Silverado EV. The system detects the phone’s location near the vehicle, enabling passive features like approach lighting, automatic door unlock, and vehicle operation—making access and use seamless and convenient.

CLEAR VISION

The Chevrolet Silverado EV features a 17-inch diagonal infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, and built-in “Hey Google” services. The 11-inch driver display can be paired with a head-up display offering a field of view over 14 inches, keeping key information visible while driving.
