Chevrolet Silverado EV LT Standard Range

Overview

The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV LT Standard Range is Chevy’s all-in move to bring electric trucking to the masses. Positioned as a more accessible yet highly capable workhorse, it packs a serious punch without the top-tier price tag of its RST sibling. Starting around $62,995, this trim delivers standard all-wheel drive, a massive and tech-forward cabin, and a genuinely useful frunk. It’s built on GM’s cutting-edge Ultium platform, aiming to blend traditional truck utility with next-generation EV performance, making it a compelling new player in the electric pickup arena.

What's New for 2025?

For 2025, the big news is the arrival of more mainstream trims like this LT Standard Range. While the Silverado EV first launched with high-spec editions, this model represents the truck’s expansion into more fleet and value-oriented segments of the US market. It brings the Silverado EV’s core DNA—the Ultium architecture, massive interior screens, and bold styling—to a significantly lower price point. This makes 2025 the year the Silverado EV truly becomes available to a wider range of truck buyers who were waiting for a more practical entry point.

Design & Exterior

The Silverado EV LT looks like it drove straight out of the future, with a sleek, aerodynamic front end that ditches a traditional grille for a smoother, more modern face. While it shares a name with its gas-powered cousin, its unique unibody construction gives it distinct proportions. This is a massive truck, measuring an imposing 233.1 inches long, 85.2 inches wide, and 78.7 inches tall. The LT trim keeps things clean and functional, lacking some of the flash of the RST but still commanding serious road presence with its confident stance.

Interior, Tech & Cargo

Step inside, and you’re greeted by a cabin dominated by tech. The LT trim gets the star treatment with a standard 11-inch digital driver display paired with a colossal 17.7-inch central touchscreen running Google built-in. It’s a clean, spacious, and modern environment with comfortable seating for five adults. When it’s time to haul, this truck delivers. You get a massive 57.7 cubic foot bed, but the real party trick is the class-leading 10.7 cubic foot weather-sealed "eTrunk" up front, perfect for stashing gear or groceries securely.

Performance & Driving Experience

Don't let the "Standard Range" name fool you; this truck can hustle. The dual-motor AWD setup, featuring a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor at both the front and rear, unleashes a combined 605 hp and 605 lb-ft of torque. That’s enough grunt to rocket this beast from 0-60 mph in just 5.7 seconds, with a top speed of 113 mph. The low-slung battery provides a planted, confident ride that’s surprisingly agile for its size. One-pedal driving is available, making city cruising smooth and helping to recapture energy with every lift of the throttle.

Range, Battery & Charging

The LT Standard Range is powered by a 119 kWh usable battery pack, which Green Cars Compare calculates will deliver a real-world range estimate of 268 miles on a full charge, with an efficiency of around 2.25 mi/kWh. At home, the standard 11.5 kW on-board charger can top it up overnight. On the road, its 400V architecture can handle DC fast charging speeds up to an impressive 220 kW via its CCS Type 1 port. This allows it to gain a significant amount of range in around 30 minutes, minimizing downtime on long hauls.

Safety & Driver-Assistance Features

While official NHTSA and IIHS safety ratings are pending for this new model, Chevrolet equips the Silverado EV LT with a solid roster of standard safety tech. Every truck comes with the Chevy Safety Assist suite, which includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and Forward Collision Alert. For those who want the best in highway driving, GM’s fantastic Super Cruise hands-free driving system is available as an option, adding a serious layer of convenience and cutting-edge technology to your drive.

Warranty & Maintenance Coverage

Chevy backs the Silverado EV with a competitive warranty package. You get a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty, while the critical electric drive components and the battery are covered for a robust 8 years or 100,000 miles. This includes protection against significant battery degradation, ensuring long-term peace of mind. Chevrolet also includes the first scheduled maintenance visit free of charge. With fewer moving parts than a traditional gas truck, long-term maintenance is expected to be simpler and more affordable, adding to the truck's overall value proposition.
