About the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV
1st generation Silverado EV, first model year (2024 launch year).
Chevrolet positions the Silverado EV as a real full-size pickup first and an EV second: a truck built to tow, haul, carry passengers comfortably, and add EV benefits such as quiet power delivery, front storage, and very fast public charging. Its core appeal is familiar Silverado usefulness with modern electric performance and technology. In the 2024 lineup, Work Truck targets commercial duty while RST shows the model’s top-end range, performance, flexibility, and cabin tech.
The launch lineup has two distinct roles: the Work Truck is aimed at fleets and job use, while the RST First Edition is the fully equipped consumer model. Both have dual-motor all-wheel drive, a lockable front storage compartment, and fast charging up to 350 kW. The RST adds four-wheel steering, adjustable air suspension, a cargo-extending Midgate, hands-free highway driving, and a 17.7-inch touchscreen.
