Pickups are defined by their power, durability, and ability to keep up with you when there's a job to do. But with the arrival of the 2025 Chevy Silverado EV, Chevrolet is proving that an all-electric truck can deliver the same rugged performance as its gas-powered counterparts. From its impressive towing capacity to its long-range battery and advanced technology, this electric truck is built to handle everything from the job site to off-road adventures. Here, the experts at Legacy Chevrolet in Greenwood, SC, will explain how this groundbreaking electric truck stands up to the competition. With incredible performance, towing, and charging capabilities, as well as cutting-edge features, it can handle whatever the day brings. If you've been wondering whether an electric truck can truly handle everything a gas-powered one can, the 2025 Chevy Silverado EV is here to prove that the answer is yes! Power and Truck Capability The new electric Silverado is equipped with dual electric motors for quick acceleration and all-wheel drive for superior handling. There are three trim levels in the Silverado EV lineup, and they both deliver impressive horsepower and torque: WT - 510 horsepower and 615 lb-ft of torque LT Extended Range - 645 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque RST Extended Range - 754 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque RST Max Range - 760 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque Its available towing capacity maxes out at 12,500 pounds. In addition to incredible power, there's a versatile 5'11" long bed that's ready to haul whatever you need. If you need more room, fold down the 60/40 split flip-and-fold seats to give yourself some extra cargo room. The bed of the Silverado EV can be configured with the available multi-flex midgate with pass-through to fit items up to 10'10". Battery and Range The 2025 Silverado EV offers three battery options: the all-new standard range, extended range, and max range. If you opt for the max-range battery, you'll get an EPA-estimated 492 miles in the WT trim and 460 miles in the RST model. This is considerably higher than competitors. For instance, the Ford F-150 Lightning has a range of 320 miles, and the Rivian R1T has a range of 420 miles. When it comes to charging, the Silverado EV can add 34 miles of range per hour when plugged into a Level 2 charger. A DC fast charger can add 100 miles of range in ten minutes.
