The 2026 Silverado EV is built for serious hauling. It delivers up to 12,500 lbs of max available towing capacity-enough for trailers, boats, and weekend toys with confidence. The bed stretches up to 10 feet 10 inches long, the longest among current-generation electric trucks, giving you room for full-size cargo.

**Innovative Flexibility:** The Multi-Flex Midgate adjusts to let you carry longer items, while the Multi-Flex Tailgate offers six available functions to adapt to your load. Available four-wheel steer delivers a smaller turning radius for easier maneuvering with a trailer in tight spaces.

**Power & Handling:** The Dual Motor 4WD system ensures strong, responsive acceleration even when towing. Available Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Sidewinder diagonal steering on Trail Boss models add premium handling whether you're on highway or off-road.

**Extra Power:** Available offboard power with up to 11 outlets and 10.2 kW lets you run tools and equipment from your truck bed.
