The Chevrolet Silverado EV lineup is expanding for 2025 as the company is adding a mid-level LT trim as well as Standard and Max Range batteries. The latter is particularly noteworthy as it increases the truck’s range to an EPA-estimated 792 km. Starting with the Silverado EV LT, the truck begins at US$ 75,195 and this makes it US$ 14,200 cheaper than the range-topping RST. That’s a sizable savings and the model comes equipped with a unique front bumper, an illuminated bowtie emblem, and 18-inch aluminum wheels. They’re joined by a Multi-Flex tailgate as well as six colors including an LT-exclusive Blue Smoke Metallic. Chevrolet didn’t delve into many specifics, but confirmed the model has an 11.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 17.7-inch infotainment system.
Power is provided by a dual-motor
all-wheel drive system producing up to 645 hp and 1,036 Nm of torque. It’s joined by an Extended Range battery that enables the
model to travel 657 km on a single charge. Buyers will also find a
300 kW DC fast charging capability and a 5,670 kg towing capacity. Buyers
looking for more equipment can get a Premium Package that increases the price
to US$ 81,995. Chevrolet didn’t say much about it, but the package adds 22-inch
wheels and they cause the range to drop to 628 km. Customers will
also find options such as Super Cruise and an Avalanche-like midgate. The
fleet-focused Work Truck (WT) returns and begins at US$ 57,095. There’s no
estimate for the new Standard Range variant, but models equipped with the
Extended Range battery cost US$ 69,495 and can travel 679 km on a
single charge.
The big news for 2025 is the addition of a
Max Range variant, which will set you back US$ 77,795. That’s pretty pricey for
a work truck, but it has an EPA-estimated range of 792 km. Besides
the new batteries, the WT gets “more choices” including a Slate Gray paint job.
Lastly, the RST gets a significant price cut as the model begins at US$ 89,395
instead of US$ 96,495. However, the price isn’t the only thing that shrinks as
the truck is now offered with two different battery packs. The Extended Range
variant has an EPA-estimated range of 628 km, while the US$ 97,895
Max Range truck can travel a GM-estimated 740 km. For comparison,
the 2024 RST First Edition had a GM-estimated range of 708 km.
Besides the aforementioned tweaks, the RST
offers a new trim-exclusive Zephyr Blue Matte Metallic paint job. We’ll likely
learn more closer to launch, but shipments should begin before the end of the
year.
