Chevrolet Silverado Electric Pickup Truck Confirmed: 400-Plus Miles Of Range It will be built at Factory Zero with the GMC Hummer EVs.
Ford talks about the F-150 EV for quite some time already. On the other hand, General Motors was quiet about electric pickup trucks apart from the GMC Hummer EV. That changed with the announcement that the Silverado will have an electric version built at Factory Zero, side by side with the Hummer EV. It will also have more “than 400 miles on a full charge.”
Until now, all we had were images of another electric pickup truck that appeared at the Barclays Global Automotive Conference in November 2020. We did not know if it would be a Silverado derivative or a stand-alone vehicle. Considering it looked pretty different from the current Silverado, the second hypothesis seemed the most likely.
GM to start making electric Silverado late next year, according to source

GM Confirms All-Electric Chevy Silverado Pickup Truck: Here’s What We Know

General Motors (GM) has confirmed that it will introduce an all-electric version of its Chevy Silverado pickup truck.
The announcement was made by GM President Mark Reuss in a statement on Tuesday, following the reveal of the GMC Hummer EV SUV on Sunday. Both electric vehicles will be built at GM’s Factory Zero assembly plant in Detroit and Hamtramck, Michigan.
In January 2020, the American automaker said it was investing a total of $2.2. billion in the facility that would build all-electric trucks and SUVS, renaming it Factory Zero as part of its multi-brand EV strategy. The electric multipassenger shuttle Cruise Origin will also be built at the 4.5 million-square-foot plant.
