    The 2025 Silverado EV RST also includes Sidewinder as standard equipment. Sidewinder, one of Silverado EV RST’s standard four-wheel steering modes, allows all four wheels to turn in the same direction and move the truck diagonally at speeds up to 20 mph. The feature, selectable from the infotainment screen, gives drivers a new way to conquer everything from rugged terrain to tight parking spaces.

    The RST is available in six exterior colors, including trim-exclusive Zephyr Blue Matte Metallic.

    What they are missing, is standard range LT that is like $62,500 ($55k after tax credit).  I imagine that will come, and they are pushing higher end trims until they can make more batteries.  But once you get the price down, I think sales take off.  As much as people pay crazy money for pick up trucks, you can't survive on the $80-90k stuff.

    50%? Not a chance when the lightest GAS powered crew cab Silverado is 4700 lbs and they mostly tip out at near 3 tons. This would do good to get down to 7,000 lbs but even that won't happen with the current EV platform. The bigger weight problem is all that battery underneath.

    50% is unrealistic. A regular half ton truck is well north of 4500lbs already.

    Yeah, all too heavy.   It's kind of absurd that they are so hefty, ICE or EV versions...

    The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has the following weight specifications:

    Per GM authority 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV Specifications

    • Curb weight: 8,350 to 9,100 depending on model
    • Maximum Towing capacity: 10,000 to 12,000 lbs depending on model
    • Maximum payload: 1,500 to 1,700 lbs depending on model
    • Gross weight: NO DATA SUPPLIED at this time via Chevrolet site or any other site I could find.

    Solid state is showing that the size of the battery pack will be reduced by half, but it will never get down to the weight of an ICE truck in the next few years IMHO.

    • Genesis wants soooo bad to be seen as European....   but yes, these are incredibly sexy.
    • These are SEXY cars that I could see myself driving. Being based on the G90 autos, that brings large interior spaces for large people. Should be exciting to see if they go from concept to production.
    • Today at the SEOUL Mobility 2025 Show Genesis revealed their X Gran Coupe and Convertible Concepts. Genesis stated this is another step in the future of the Luxury division towards redefining automotive luxury and performance. This New Era of Genesis is dedicated to their global customers in sharing their aspirations for Cars and SUVs.  Genesis focused on these two cars that they believe will deliver what people are wanting in a car for the launchpad of driving in a new decade as Genesis looks to release new models that embody their pursuit of high-performance technology and future luxury design. Genesis stated that these two concepts took inspiration from the greater Mediterranean area. Specifically, the coupe was inspired by the Mediterranean olive tree and the convertible by southern European wines. These Genesis concepts are additional interpretation of the G90 series of Luxury cars. The Coupe showcases the Genesis way of elegance with athleticism while the convertible showcases the freedom of expression with connection to the surrounding environment. The X Coupe and X Convertible Concepts are adorned with Genesis’ characteristic Two-Line headlights, which extend toward the iconic Genesis Crest Grille. The 3D grille meshes are inspired by woven metal strings arranged in diamond-shaped Two-Line patterns. The wide lower air intakes with sculpted grille meshes emphasize the sporty character of the vehicles, while the elongated hoods create a dynamic silhouette. The widened Two-Line headlights extend to the fenders, visually enhancing the increased track width. Side profiles and wheel designs were purpose built to enforce a muscular dramatic stance for these cars. Aesthetics was also not forgotten as Genesis took a high-tech approach with flush Genesis logos and hidden retractable cameras, touch-less operations such as the trunk. From the olive tree use of veneer wood accents to crystal accents that convene a captivating display of light to bring warmth into the interior cabin, these concepts were paired with soft materials using recovered materials including wastewater used in the tanning process of the leather seats that gives a natural olive oil scent for the Coupe and a natural Cabernet Sauvignon for the convertible. These G90 Concepts in lush colors contrast drastically with the recently shown G90 Sedan Black Edition. Motivation in both cars is from the current G90 Twin-Turbo V6 that produces 409 horsepower, 405 lb-ft of torque with a 48V electric supercharger.     View full article
