Performance

The Chevrolet Silverado EV 3WT delivers a solid performance with a maximum power of 375 kW (510 hp / 503 bhp) and a total torque of 834 Nm (615 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 170 km/h (106 mph), making it competitive within its class.

Battery, Range, and Charging

The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 200.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 190.0 kWh, providing a 10.0 kWh buffer (5.0%) for battery protection. Operating at a nominal voltage of 650 volts, it qualifies as an 800-volt battery system. This high voltage is pivotal in enabling the system’s charging capabilities. This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.

According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standard, the vehicle has an range of 393 miles (632 km) with an energy consumption rate of 2.1 miles per kWh. For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 350 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 126 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 44 minutes with an average charging speed of 182 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 1% to 62%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 235 kW, with each charging session taking about 30 minutes and 33 seconds. This efficient charging capability makes the Chevrolet Silverado EV 3WT a convenient option for long-distance travel.

In a theoretical 1000 km challenge, starting with a full battery and maintaining a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) under ideal conditions with an assumed consumption rate of 35 kWh/100 km, the trip would take approximately 9 hours and 2 minutes. This journey would require two charging stops from 1% to 44%, with a total charging time of 42 minutes.

Onboard Charger
