Depending on trim, seats are offered in variations of Evotex seat trim. Dual-zone automatic climate control is standard on most trims, and heated and ventilated front seats are available.

Exterior: Designed to Work and Turn Heads
The 2026 Silverado EV was built from the ground up as an electric truck, and it shows. There’s no engine under the hood, just added storage, and the sculpted body lines, aerodynamic shape, and LED lighting signature give it a commanding presence. The Multi-Flex Midgate system lets you expand the cargo bed into the cab to accommodate large items, while the Multi-Flex Tailgate offers six configurations to load and unload with ease.
Depending on trim, you can get 18-inch wheels on the LT or go up to 22-inch wheels on higher trims. The Trail Boss trim adds a factory lift, all-terrain tires, and underbody protection for off-road excursions.

Performance: Pure Electric Muscle, Zero Emissions
There’s no shortage of power in the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV lineup. The Work Truck model delivers up to 510 horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque, while the LT takes things even further with 510 horsepower and 580 lb-ft of torque. The Trail Boss trim comes with Wide Open Watts, pumping out up to 775 lb-ft of torque. That means instant torque, lightning-fast acceleration, and the ability to tow and haul with confidence.
