2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV Specs and Features

The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV: Carter Chevrolet in Okarche, OK

When the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV arrives at Carter Chevrolet in Okarche, OK, you’re looking at the future of full-size pickup trucks. This is not a rework of the gas-powered Silverado; it’s a fully electric platform built from the ground up to deliver instant torque, trail-ready strength, and incredible towing power without a drop of fuel. With trim levels including the Custom, LT, and the off-road-focused Trail Boss, the Silverado EV is ready to work and play on your terms.

Thanks to up to 478 miles of GM-estimated range, up to 775 pound-feet of torque, and up to 12,500 pounds of towing capacity, this electric pickup delivers serious performance. And while other electric trucks try to be everything at once, the Silverado EV focuses on what truck owners need: capability, space, and long-haul confidence. Whether you’re comparing it to the Ford Lightning, Rivian R1T, or even its linemate, the GMC Sierra EV, the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV stands out for its serious work truck DNA and cutting-edge versatility.

Interior: Inside the Cab

Every 2026 Silverado EV has a full-size crew cab layout with adult-sized comfort in both rows. All trims offer five-passenger seating and more than 44 inches of legroom in the front and rear, which means your crew or your family won’t be cramped. The cabin delivers smart storage, intuitive design, and upscale materials like Evotex seat trim and ambient interior lighting.

All three trims come standard with dual-zone automatic climate control, rear air vents, carpeted floor mats, rear seat reminder, and a tilt and telescoping steering column. You’ll find an eight-way power driver seat adjuster on every model, and available heated and ventilated front and rear outboard seats. The Trail Boss brings an exclusive Black and Artemis interior colorway with red accent stitching, while the LT model features available driver memory settings and leather-like surfaces that feel premium without feeling too precious. And yes, there’s plenty of USB charging throughout the cabin.

Cargo and storage are cleverly integrated, including the eTrunk (with available power-open/close hood), under-seat compartments, and a foldable organizer that turns the Silverado EV into a mobile workstation.

Work Ready Exterior
