This Is The Cheapest Way To Get A 450-Mile EV
"The Chevy Silverado EV WT is already among the cheapest electric trucks. It has a relatively spartan interior, but it's available with a giant 205 kilowatt-hour battery that can provide up to 493 miles of range, 11,000 pounds of towing and a trick folding mid-gate that gives you up to 11 feet of bed space. The Silverado EV is not perfect-editor-in-chief Patrick George wasn't impressed by its ride comfort or interior-but it can do everything a gas truck does."
"These early 4WT models all offer around 450 miles of range, which means not only will you never have range anxiety unladen, but you'll be able to tow for quite a distance without charging stops. When you do have to stop, you'll benefit from some of the highest peak charging speeds of any EV on sale. Just don't try to fast-charge with the A/C on. Plus, while almost all other General Motors EVs don't offer Apple CarPlay, the Work Truck versions of the Silverado do."
Electric trucks deliver smoother, quieter, and quicker performance than gas pickups while offering simpler drivetrains and lower running costs. New electric trucks remain costly, with base models around $60,000 and premium trucks often $80,000–$100,000. Building a full-size electric truck with long range, five seats, a large bed, ground clearance, and 10,000-pound towing capacity is currently too expensive to sell under roughly $45,000. Used Chevy Silverado EV WT models, many former rentals or work trucks, can appear for under $45,000 and offer up to 493 miles range, 11,000 pounds towing, high peak charging speeds, and practical bed and mid-gate utility.
