Top Features of the Silverado EV
The Chevrolet Silverado EV is reshaping what drivers expect from a full-size electric truck. With the rugged dependability Silverado is known for and cutting-edge EV technology, it’s built to handle Pacific Northwest conditions while delivering a quiet, zero-emissions ride. For McKenna, WA drivers and those shopping at Northwest Chevrolet—part of the Dinsmore Auto Group—this truck offers an ideal balance of performance, capability, and innovation.
Exceptional Electric Range for Daily Drives and Road Trips
One of the most talked-about advantages of the Silverado EV is its impressive electric driving range. With an estimated range of up to 400 miles on a full charge, it supports both local commuting and extended weekend getaways without constant charging stops. In the Pacific Northwest, where distances between towns can be significant, this range offers peace of mind for trips over mountain passes or along the coast.
High-Output Performance Without Gasoline
The Silverado EV is no compromise on power. With up to 754 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque in certain trims, acceleration is immediate and towing power is on par with gas-powered models. Whether hauling a trailer for work or navigating steep grades in McKenna’s surrounding areas, the electric powertrain delivers strength without the noise, fumes, or fuel expenses of a traditional truck.
Flexible Towing and Payload Capabilities
Towing capacity is a key consideration for truck buyers, and the Silverado EV delivers with the ability to tow up to 10,000 pounds in select configurations. That means drivers can easily handle boats, campers, or work equipment. Combined with a substantial payload rating, it’s ready for both jobsite duties and recreational adventures, making it a versatile choice for both personal and professional use in the Pacific Northwest.

Innovative Midgate for Cargo Versatility
One of the standout design features is the Multi-Flex Midgate, allowing the rear wall of the cab to fold down for expanded bed space. This makes it possible to transport longer items—like kayaks, lumber, or camping gear—without compromising the enclosed cabin area. For Northwest Chevrolet customers who enjoy the outdoor lifestyle of Washington, this feature enhances the truck’s practicality for a variety of activities.
Advanced Charging Solutions for Home and Travel
Charging flexibility is another area where the Silverado EV shines. It supports Level 1, Level 2, and DC fast charging, which can add up to 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes with a high-speed charger. For McKenna-area residents, home charging stations can make daily driving effortless, while public charging infrastructure in Washington ensures long-distance trips remain convenient.
Technology Designed for Driver Confidence
Inside, the Silverado EV features a modern cockpit with a large, reconfigurable infotainment display and advanced driver-assistance systems. Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, and Super Cruise hands-free driving technology help make long highway drives more comfortable and less fatiguing. In the Pacific Northwest’s varied driving conditions, these systems add both safety and convenience.

Built-In Power for Tools and Equipment
For worksite or recreational use, the Silverado EV offers PowerBase, with up to 10 outlets providing 120V and 240V power. This means tools, camping appliances, or even another EV can be powered directly from the truck. For local contractors or outdoor enthusiasts in McKenna, this on-board power can be a game-changer, reducing reliance on external generators.
Rugged Build with Aerodynamic Efficiency
While its appearance stays true to Silverado’s tough aesthetic, the EV model also incorporates aerodynamic enhancements for better efficiency. The combination of durability and thoughtful design means it can handle everything from muddy backroads to wet coastal highways, all while maximizing battery performance.
Spacious and Comfortable Cabin for All Seasons
The interior is designed with comfort in mind, offering generous legroom, heated and ventilated seats, and high-quality materials. The quietness of the electric drivetrain adds to the cabin’s refinement, making it an excellent daily driver in the often rainy and cool Pacific Northwest climate.
