The 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is poised to dominate the electric pickup truck market. With remarkable performance and versatility, the Silverado EV is proving to be a top contender. The all-electric truck offers one of the quickest charging times among electric trucks. Chevrolet initially introduced the Silverado EV with two trims, one geared toward commercial customers and the other public consumers. Designed for fleet customers, the WT trim was set to be the base trim however a new 3WT trim has been released that caters to public consumers. Although the 3WT lacks the performance seen with the RST First Edition trim, it comes with an MSRP of $74,900 (plus destination fee) compared to the RST’s $105,000 (plus destination fee). Both trims offer similar charging capabilities however which is a crucial factor for EV buyers.

2024 Silverado EV Offers Fast Charging

The 2024 Chevy Silverado EV offers one of the fastest charging times available on an electric pickup truck. The all-electric Silverado provides rapid charging with the ability to draw up to 350 kilowatts of power from its 24-module battery pack. Boasting 450 miles of battery range, the Silverado EV allows owners to fully charge their trucks in just one hour and 15 minutes. They can also add 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes using a DC fast charger.

What sets the Silverado EV apart is its consistent charging speed. Utilizing two 400-volt battery packs, the truck doubles the voltage during charging by connecting them in series. This ensures a steady charge of over 340 kilowatts throughout the process. It also addresses a common concern with EVs and demonstrates the Silverado’s capability to deliver reliable performance. To top it off, this capability is available with both the top-tier RST First Edition trim and the more accessible 3WT trim.

Overall, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV proves to be a top contender in the electric truck market, offering impressive charging capabilities alongside its other features. Features like Wide Open Watts mode add further capability and for those opting for the RST First Edition, they’ll see a 0 to 60 mph time of just 4.5 seconds. As EVs continue to grow in popularity, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is lining up to stand on top within the electric truck segment.
