The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV is a genuine performance machine. Its Dual Motor 4WD system delivers up to 760 max available horsepower and up to 775 lb-ft of max available torque with Wide Open Watts enabled in Sports Mode. That translates to thrilling acceleration-the truck can launch from 0 to 60 mph in under 4.5 seconds.

The nearly instantaneous torque delivery to all four wheels enhances traction in changing conditions, while available four-wheel steer and Sidewinder diagonal steering (on Trail Boss) add agile handling for a truck this powerful. All-wheel drive capability, combined with available Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension, makes the Silverado EV feel surprisingly nimble despite its size.
