With new and future models coming down the line at Chuck Hutton Chevrolet, the face of automotive history is about to change the game forever! The 2021 Chevy Silverado EV debuted last week, quickly followed by the official announcement that the fully loaded RST First Edition trim sold out a mere 12 minutes after reservations were opened. So many admirable traits will have the limelight concerning this new electric truck, and we wanted to share with you the three most sensational qualities that Edmunds.com loved regarding the EV.
The 400-Mile Range’s Resounding Appeal:
If you have ever driven down a long stretch of highway road running purely on fumes, you may be familiar with the type of range anxiety that can set in during very game-changing trip moments. The 400-mile range of the Silverado EV becomes especially appealing when you may be embarking on a trip where there is not a gas station on every corner. 400 miles is much more than the Ford can lay bragging rights to for its upcoming F-150 Lightning. With the brilliant usefulness of 350-kW DC fast-charging compatibility, an owner can add 100 miles of extra range in just ten short minutes.
The EV Max’s Tow Package’s Impressive 20,000 lbs. of Capacity:
When the Silverado EV first officially debuted, 10,000 pounds was the ballpark that was given for towing capacity. This is heavy-duty enough to be on even par with the crosstown rival from Ford, but lately, an exciting tidbit found its way into a press release. The incoming Silverado EV’s Work Truck will offer a maximum tow rating of 20,000 pounds when equipped with the max tow package that will be available shortly after launch. Doubling down right off the bat is massively impressive, and it’s the type of candor and viable grit we’d expect from the design and engineering team at our beloved bow-tie brand.
Silverado EV Multi-Flex Cargo Bed Ideal for EV Package’s Demands:
The feature that the Edmunds team appreciated most was the Multi-Flex Midgate, which allows owners to expand the cargo bed from 6 to 9 feet if the tailgate is closed. All you must do is fold the 60/40 split-back seats down in part or in full and then fold a lower portion of the cab wall down too. This way you’ll have space for a passenger and long item both at once, and even fold down both sides of the back seat and lower cab wall to do away with the cab’s rear window glass. You can also drop the multi-flex tailgate and then flip up a lip on its trailing edge, and the bed grows to 11 feet long.
Driving range and towing capacity are just two of the superpowers that customers will notice first on the Silverado EV, and we guarantee that anyone doubting that these EV’s will feel like real trucks will be pleasantly surprised! You’re going to love the looks, feel, and class-leading performance that the newest and most ingenious breed of trucks will offer here at Chuck Hutton.
