What We Can Expect From the 2026 Chevy Silverado EV

The Chevy Silverado for 2026 is here, and it provides more power, more range, and a new trim designed for living life off the grid.

The new Silverado EV, now in its third year of production, is committed to delivering purpose and environmentally friendly driving standards to the full-size truck market.

With the ability to move from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds, and continue on the road for an EPA-estimated 493 miles of range, this new Silverado is venturing further than most trucks dared to dream possible.

A Growing Lineup of Powerful Electric Pickups

---

What sets a pickup truck apart from its competition is the power and capability under the hood. We’re used to trucks being gas-guzzlers, so the big question is: Can an EV match, or even exceed, its gas-powered companions?

If you’re sitting behind the wheel of the Silverado EV, the answer is a resounding yes.

New Standards on Performance and Capability

The new Silverado EV is powered by two electric motors that deliver up to 760 horsepower and 775 lb.-ft. of torque. You can stick to the standard all-wheel drive, or opt for the rear-wheel-steering system and optional adaptive air suspension to enhance an already smooth driving experience.

A truck’s power is only as good as what it can achieve, and the Silverado EV does not disappoint. With a max available towing of up to 12,500 pounds and advanced towing technology, it’s easier than ever to hitch up and haul out.

Where Substance Meets Style

Pairing function and form can be a challenging feat for most automakers, yet the Silverado manages to do it seamlessly–both inside and out.

The fully-electric pickup catches the eye from the start with seven available exterior paint colors, including:

• Black
• Polar White Tricoat
• Riptide Blue Metallic
• White Sands
• Blue Smoke Metallic
• Habanero Orange
• Magnus Gray Matte Metallic

While its exterior is eye-catching, the Silverado EV’s interior is where it really shines. When fully outfitted, drivers can enjoy a panoramic fixed-glass roof and added space thanks to the column-mounted stalk.

Tech enthusiasts will appreciate the 17.7-inch diagonal infotainment touch-screen display and the 11-inch diagonal driver information center with Google built-in to create a simplified and fully customizable experience behind the wheel.

Going Off the Grid with the Silverado EV Trail Boss–Finally!

Despite some updated technology and a few added features, one of the most significant changes is the arrival of the new 2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss trim.

The Trail Boss trim is designed for a quintessential off-road experience. With a 2.0-inch lift and 35-inch-tall all-terrain tires, the Trail Boss ensures that you won’t have to worry about cutting through rocks and mud in the wilderness.

Notable features to look forward to on the Trail Boss include:

• Red tow hooks
• Exclusive Black and Artemis interior with Red accent stitching
• Four-wheel steer and Sidewinder diagonal steering
• Trail Boss-exclusive badging on sail panels
• 725 hp/ 775 lb.-ft. of torque

Pricing and Configurations for the 2026 Silverado

The 2026 Silverado EV is available in three trims, varying from a jobsite-ready pickup to an off-road icon.

• 2026 Chevy Silverado WT: Starting at $66,200
• 2026 Chevy Silverado LT: Starting at $69,100
• 2026 Chevy Silverado Trail Boss: Starting at $70,000

The Silverado that best suits you will depend on your lifestyle and budget. Unless you’re planning on spending extensive time on the trail, we’d recommend the midline LT trim. With uplevel exterior LED lighting, 18-inch High-Gloss Black painted aluminum wheels, and a 5’11” bed with available Multi-Flex Tailgate and Midgate, the LT trim offers the best of both worlds for a work hard, play harder attitude.
