THE 2025 CHEVROLET SILVERADO EV RST IS A MULTI-FACETED TRUCK WITH CRAZY GOOD RANGE

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV RST enters the electric truck market with impressive range, boasting up to 460 miles on a full charge, a segment-leading figure. The reviewer highlights its dedicated EV platform, independent suspension, and the unique multi-flex midgate, offering significant cargo flexibility reminiscent of the Avalanche. Performance is strong, with 760 horsepower enabling a 0-60 mph time of just over 4 seconds in Wide Open Watts mode. However, the interior is a significant drawback, criticized for its cheap materials, poor fit and finish, and the notable absence of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a perceived misstep by GM. While the ride quality is improved over earlier versions, the truck feels large and cumbersome, with torque steer being a persistent issue. Ultimately, the reviewer suggests that for a modest price increase, the GMC Sierra EV Denali offers a more luxurious interior and better design, making the Silverado EV RST's value proposition questionable despite its range advantage.
