2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV Photos, engines & full specs

Chevrolet introduced the 2024 Silverado EV in 2022 and showed the future of its pickup lineup with this electron-powered vehicle aimed at customers who used it mostly for leisure and less for work.

Built on top of the same ULTIUM platform as its sibling GMC Sierra EV and GMC HUMMER, the Silverado EV showed the future of this utility vehicle. Moreover, it wasn't just a leisure truck since Chevrolet offered it in several grades, including as a Work Truck beside the RST First Edition trim level.

The vehicle's design was miles away from any other Silverado ever built. At the front, it featured narrow daytime running lights and an LED stripe that crossed the upper section of the main front fascia. Chevrolet installed the headlights lower, on the sides, in individual clusters. Where the regular grille used to be, the Silverado sported a body-colored panel adorned by the bow-tie badge on its top. From its profile, the plastic cladding on the wheel arches emphasized the car's rugged appearance. At the back, the bed was available with a Multi-Flex Midgate that expanded the loading length.

Inside, GM provided a premium-vehicle interior fitted with all the latest technologies it had in stock. At the front, the automaker installed a pair of screens for the infotainment system and another for the instrument panel. At the back, the split-folding bench provided enough room for three passengers.

But the most important part of the Silverado EV was under its skin. The ULTIUM platform provided a four-wheel drive and a four-wheel steering system. Thanks to its 664 hp (673 PS) and 780 lb-ft (1057 Nm), it could tow up to 10,000 lbs (4,536 kg) while having a payload of 1,300 lbs (590 kg). To top it all off, the Silverado EV could sprint from naught to 60 mph (0-97 kph) in less than 4.5 seconds.
