New range and lower price for 2024 Chevy Silverado EV RST: Now with 440 miles of range

The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV RST is gearing up to hit the market soon, with GM releasing some updated details before deliveries begin in mid-2024.

One exciting update is the official range estimate, which has exceeded Chevy’s initial promise. The RST model is now rated for an impressive 440 miles on a full charge, surpassing the original estimate of 400 miles. This makes it the second-longest range Silverado EV, with only the 4WT model surpassing it at 450 miles. However, the 4WT sacrifices luxury and comfort features for a slightly higher range. It’s worth noting that the Silverado EV now leads the pack in terms of range among electric pickups, outperforming competitors like the Ford F-150 Lightning, Tesla Cybertruck, and Rivian R1T.

In addition, the final starting price has been revealed for the First-Edition RST model. This fully-loaded version of the Silverado EV will start at $96,495, which includes the $1,995 destination charge. This price is an improvement over Chevy’s initial estimate, showing a decrease of nearly $10,000. It’s essential to remember how prices for new EVs have fluctuated in the past, like when the Work Truck’s price increased from $39,900 to $77,905 upon release.

For those eager to learn more, a review of the driving experience of the Work Truck model is available. And for a comprehensive look at the RST model, the original reveal details can be found. Lower-priced trims will be introduced later, but the specific on-sale dates have not been announced by GM yet.
