Video Summary
Here's a summary of the provided video review:The review covers the Chevrolet Silverado EV Work Truck.
It has less power than the high-end RST.
The Work Truck makes 510 horsepower and 615 pound-feet of torque.
Power is sent through two electric motors, one in the front and one in the rear, providing full-time four-wheel drive.
It does not have an engine, but it does have a front trunk, and it's quite a bit of space.
The front trunk isn't powered on the Work Truck.
The front trunk is equipped with tie-down D-rings, interior lighting, and cup holders.
It also features a 2.4-kilowatt power outlet in the front trunk.
It gets a set of 18-inch wheels instead of the 24-inch wheels on the RST.
The reviewer likes the black-and-white "Stormtrooper" combo styling.
It tows 10,000 pounds.
The payload on this unit comes in at 1425 pounds.
There are no front tow hooks.
The underside is sealed, providing aerodynamic benefits.
The battery pack has a steel skid plate for protection.
It features independent suspension all around.
The charging port is at the rear end of the truck.
It has full 360-degree cameras.
The base of the work truck comes with the 360-degree cameras.
The mid-gate is not available on the Work Truck model.
It is estimated to have a 205 kWh battery.
The range is approximately 395 miles (unladen) and around 241 miles (when towing).
It is a legitimate amount of power, the charging and the ability to get some work done with that 2.4 kW or 7.2 kW and be able to use that power all day long while on location and off the grid.
It does accept fast charging up to 350 kW and that is delivered. In the preconditioned battery this charging station was charging at just over 200 kW.
The truck comes with that one reverse threaded tow hook.
The interior is black plastic, providing maximum utility. It features a huge storage bin and a console with a lid and cupholders.
The Silverado EV is really good to drive with trailer and a nice and level suspension. But the downside is the price point. A Work Truck at $83,833 (CAD) can be hard to justify. If this truck priced at around $60,000 it would be worth a consideration.
