Chevy is closing the Silverado EV reservation process as it prepares to convert more than 185,000 fleet and retail reservations into orders, Masica said.
The reservation tally includes about 350 unique fleet customers from multiple industries with thousands of orders, Masica said, though Chevy has not publicly identified the truck’s initial customers.
The first retail-oriented trim, the high-end RST First Edition, is slated to arrive this fall. The RST has a GM-estimated 400-mile range and starts at $106,895 including shipping.
Once trucks ordered by initial reservation holders have been built, Chevy will open the normal vehicle ordering process through dealerships, Masica said.
The Silverado EV 3WT for fleet buyers also will arrive this year, starting at $74,800 including shipping and offering a GM-estimated range of 350 miles. Additional trims, including the entry-level model, will follow in 2024.
The 4WT will offer higher towing and payload capacity than originally estimated, Chevy said. Towing capacity increased to 10,000 pounds from 8,000, while payload rose to 1,440 pounds from 1,200, Masica said.
