The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV launches later this year in three distinct trims with more range, content, and price options for retail and commercial customers.
- Range: With 492 miles1, the 2025 Silverado EV with Max Range sets the new standard as the range leader for electric trucks.
- Trims: The Silverado EV offers new technology, range, and design packages across Work Truck (WT), LT and RST trims.
- Price: Starting MSRP as low as $57,0952. Select retail models may qualify for the full $7,500 federal tax credit for eligible customers.
“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,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “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.”
