4-Wheel Steering, 440 Miles Range and 754 Hp, New Chevrolet Silverado EV RST First Edition 2024
- 27 days ago
Chevrolet is preparing to launch the Silverado EV RST First Edition, and the company announced that pricing will start at $94,500.
The Chevrolet Silverado EV RST First Edition will be available towards the middle of the year with a base price of $94,500.
The truck will have a range of 440 miles and a 754-horsepower dual-motor all-wheel drive system.
Additional variants, including Trail Boss trim, will follow in the future.
When Chevrolet introduced the Silverado EV two years ago, the company said the RST First Edition would have a range of 400 miles (644 km) and cost $105,000. Surprisingly, that's no longer the case, as range has increased to 440 miles (708 km) while the price has dropped to $94,500 before the $1,995 destination charge.
The announcement comes as the bowtie brand prepares to launch its top-of-the-line hardware towards the middle of the year. When the truck arrives, it will be equipped with massive 24-inch wheels and a fixed glass roof.
However, the model is more notable for having an Avalanche-like Multi-Flex Midgate. Allows the 5′ 11″ bed to be expanded to hold 9′ long items. If that's not enough, you can fold the Multi-Flex Tailgate to carry items up to 10 ft 10 inches long.
Inside, you will encounter an 11-inch digital instrument panel and a 17-inch infotainment system. These are accompanied by a flat-bottom steering wheel, metallic accents and red trim.
Motivation is provided by a dual-motor all-wheel drive system that produces an estimated 754 hp (562 kW / 764 PS) and 785 lb-ft (1,063 Nm) of torque. Allows the model to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in less than 4.5 seconds when using Wide Open Watt mode.
When it's time to recharge, device owners will be grateful for the 350 kW DC fast charging capability, which can deliver nearly 100 miles (161 km) of range in as little as 10 minutes. Reservations will also be rewarded with a complimentary two-way GM Energy Powershift Level 2 Charger worth 19.2 kW.
Other highlights include the 4-wheel steering system, which impressed us when we tested it on the GMC Hummer EV Pickup. The model will also have air ride adaptive suspension as well as a towing capacity of up to 10,000 lbs (4,536 kg).
At the top of the driver assistance range is Super Cruise with trailer support. Automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning and lane departure warning are also included, along with lane keeping assist. We can also expect other standard security features to be available, which will be announced closer to launch.
