The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV is a powerhouse. It generates up to 760 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque, enabling a maximum towing capacity of 12,500 pounds-serious capability for a full-size electric truck. You also get up to 1,300 pounds of max payload capacity, so hauling gear and equipment is built in.
