The Cybertruck, love it or hate it, has been pushing automakers to create their own EV trucks, and the Chevy Silverado EV RST is the latest to be announced. Even with trucks like the F-150 Lightning and the Cybertruck, failing at doing a lot of truck things, companies are still pursuing the truck market.

The new Silverado EV RST has an interesting look to it, that’s for sure. To us, it looks like a hybrid of the Cybertruck, a Silverado, the Chevy Avalanche, and the Rivian EV truck. Chevy is estimating the new Silverado EV RST to get 440 miles (ca. 708 km) of range. Ford and Tesla both made similar claims but failed to meet those numbers. Though some Tesla users can get it with the extended range pack, which takes up bed space.
Here are the key takeaways of the new Chevy Silverado EV RST:
- The Silverado EV offers stunning performance and capability that’s astonishing the people who know trucks best. Watch as the highly regarded truck media outlet, The Fast Lane Truck, puts the Silverado EV through its paces – and against the competition – in a series of tests.
- Skip the gas station and conveniently charge up your Silverado EV from the comfort of your home. With available Level 2 charging (professional installation required), you’ll have optimal at-home charging† that easily fits your daily routine and driving needs. Level 1 charging serves as a backup option when required. Either way you charge, you can head out confidently with a GM-estimated range of 440 miles (ca. 708 km).
- Recharging while you’re on the move is as easy as pulling in, plugging in and charging up. With more than 174,000 available public charging stations, you’ll have no problem finding one nearby.
