    GM EV Trucks go all in for MAX Range

      GM has stated they are all in on the EV revolution and as such seem to be delivering it via their Chevrolet and GMC EV pickups with Max Range options.

    GM stated a few years back that they were all in on EVs and would prove that by bringing to market a number of EVs that would meet the needs of the retail market.

    Chevrolet started with the Silverado EV RST edition, delivering an estimated 440 miles of range on a full charge with 754 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque with a 0-60 mph time of less than 4.5 seconds, DC fast charging up to 350kW and a 10,000 pounds of trailering with 1,500 pounds of payload.

    The Silverado RST was a fully loaded truck that has many features and yet Chevrolet also stated that two other modules would also be available by the end of 2024, 4WT with a 450-mile range, 3WT with 393-mile range, and a Trail Boss edition.

    WT EV Truck

    Trail Boss EV truck

    GMC was soon to follow with their Sierra EV Denali pickup 1st Edition that delivered 460 miles of range with 760 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque with the same 0-60 mph time, charging, hauling and trailering specifications.

    GMC also stated that by the end of 2024 or early 2025 you could buy a Sierra EV AT4 edition or Sierra EV Elevation edition.

    GM has added a Max Range battery option to their truck lineup in the following:

    • Chevrolet WT Max Range 492 Miles EPA-estimate
    • Chevrolet RST Max Range 390 Miles EPA-estimate
    • GMC Sierra EV Denali Extended Range 390 Miles EPA-estimate
    • GMC Sierra EV Denali Max Range 460 Miles EPA-estimate

    Both Chevrolet will offer additional range packages for the LT series of EV pickup in 2025 as will GMC expand extended range and Max Range to the rest of their family of EV pickups in 2025.

    • Ahhhh, this reminds me of so many good movies. That building has been used in many movies. This years Tradeshow building has been Brutal. I will be so happy when this is all over and in June I can get back to having time to write stories for C&G. I have a part 2 that I need to complete on all the added details around the MAGMA GV60 as that auto is so cool with the tech. It puts both BMW M series and the Mercedes AMG series to shame. Korea has really stepped up their game in performance.
    • Here in Washington State, there are incentives to turn your roof into a complete Solar panel with storage and the county / state will buy back any excess.  I have many coworkers who have done this and now just charge their EVs for free pretty much. As one that is planning a complete remodel of the house for retirement as the wife and I have decided to stay put till we are 6ft under, the one thing I will do is change the roof into a 45-degree angle with complete solar panels and storage. The assessments are showing that I will more than be able to power the whole house and charge my EVs with no pulling from the grid, but excess that I can sell back into the grid. EV is the future, Solar charging just makes it so much better.
    • I am looking for witnesses, cross-checks, and people whose lived contact with reality exposes the theater.  Its why I love the discussions here when they are rational. 
    • just by going up lol. I use to be able to get a solar/wind contract for 8c/kWh as recently as 2 years ago.  I get the rates e-mailed to me once a week and they range from 12.5c - 14c. That's really close to my house. I can often hear them.
