    2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV offers 492-mile range and new trims

    General Motors shared more details on the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV pickup truck, which will launch later this year and include a work truck model featuring nearly 500 miles on a full charge. 

    The Silverado EV pickups offers new technology, range, and design packages across work truck, LT, and RST trims. According to specs, the Work Truck Max Range version has enough battery to offer 492 miles of range on a full charge.

    “Truck customers tell us range is one of the main barriers to considering an EV. The 2024 Silverado EV already was the range leader, and for this new model year, we’ve set the bar even higher,” Scott Bell, VP of Chevrolet, said. “A second barrier to entry is price, so we are fortifying the Silverado EV lineup by providing more choice. For 2025, we’re introducing an LT trim, offering a more affordable RST package, and expanding WT offerings. This increased capability and accessibility is great news for the segment, the industry, and the brand.”

    Introducing the Silverado EV LT

    The LT trim is available on the Silverado EV for the first time. Both the LT with standard content and the LT Premium Package are priced so customers may qualify for the federal tax credit. The LT offers the following standard content:

    • 300 kW DC public fast charging
    • Standard 18-inch aluminum wheels, with accessory 22-inch wheels available later in the model year
    • Unique lower front fascia and uplevel exterior lighting, including illuminated front gold bowtie
    • Standard 17.7-inch-diagonal center infotainment screen paired with 11.3-inch-diagonal driver informational center
    • 12,500 lb. towing capacity and 1,800 lb. payload
    • Up to 765 lb.-ft. torque and 645 hp with Wide Open Watts mode
    • Available in six exterior colors, including trim-exclusive Blue Smoke Metallic
    • Standard multi-flex tailgate
    • 408 miles of range on a full charge

    • Available multi-flex midgate, which offers up to 10 feet and 10 inches of load floor when paired with the standard multi-flex tailgate
    • Available Super Cruise, the only hands-free advanced driver assistance system to offer hands-free trailering, will be active on about 750,000 miles of roads in the U.S. and Canada by the end of 2025
    • 22-inch machined-face aluminum wheels
    • 390 miles of range on a full charge

    Work Truck battery range

    The Silverado EV Work Truck Max Range offers 492 miles with its battery pack.

    The Work Truck for commercial customers will launch with a starting MSRP of $69,4952 for the Extended Range model, which offers up to 422 miles of range.

    More choices will be available for the Work Truck, including a new slate gray exterior color.

    More range available on RST

    The Silverado EV RST will be available with two different battery pack options, offering a max range of 460 miles.

    The RST is available in six exterior colors, including trim-exclusive Zephyr Blue Matte Metallic.

    Coming later this year

    Chevrolet expects to ship 2025 Silverado EV WT, LT, and RST to customers before the end of the year. Later in the model year, a Work Truck with the standard range battery pack will join the lineup for fleet and retail customers and will be available with a starting MSRP of $57,095. The EPA-estimated range will be available closer to that truck’s launch.
