Reserve Your Chevy Silverado EV
Lock in your build on the Chevy Silverado EV at Bob Howard Chevrolet — choose between WT, LT, and Trail Boss trims, pick a battery range, and secure your spot in the order queue before allocations for your preferred configuration tighten.
Direct Answer: How do I order a Silverado EV?
Reserving a Silverado EV starts with picking a trim and battery configuration, then placing your order through Bob Howard Chevrolet so it's built to your spec rather than hoping the right combination shows up on the lot. Because trim, battery size, and packages all affect price and delivery timing, working with our team directly — rather than ordering blind online — gets you an accurate build sheet and a realistic delivery window from the start.
2026 Silverado EV Trims & Pricing
Price and range both move a lot depending on trim and battery pack — the table below lines up where each 2026 Silverado EV configuration starts.
| Trim | Starting Price | Max Range Available |
|---|---|---|
| WT (Work Truck) | From $54,895 | Up to 493 mi. with the Max Range battery ($76,295) |
| LT | From $62,995 | Up to 478 mi. with the Max Range battery ($91,295) |
| Trail Boss | From $72,095 | Up to 478 mi. with the Max battery pack ($88,695) |
Every trim is available with multiple battery configurations, and range shifts with each one. The base WT — the lightest, most aerodynamic configuration in the lineup — actually posts the highest EPA-estimated figure of any Silverado EV at 493 miles on the Max Range battery. LT and Trail Boss top out at 478 miles on their own Max Range packs; Trail Boss's entry point starts on the smaller Extended battery, rated up to 410 miles, before you step up to Max Range. Trail Boss's off-road gear (bigger tires, added ride height) trades a little efficiency for capability. If you're still deciding between a gas Silverado and the EV, our Chevy EV ownership guide breaks down real-world range, charging costs, and Oklahoma incentives side by side.
Towing & Payload
Towing capacity varies by trim and battery: Standard Range models are rated up to 8,500 pounds, Max Range configurations run from roughly 7,000 to 10,500 pounds depending on setup, and Extended Range WT, LT, and Trail Boss models top out at 12,500 pounds — enough for most work trailers, campers, and equipment hauls.
Charging on the Road
On a 350-kW-capable DC fast charger, a Silverado EV can recover a 10-80% charge in roughly 40 minutes. Our Oklahoma City EV charging station map lays out where the fastest public chargers sit along I-35, I-40, and I-44 for longer hauls.
What Makes the Silverado EV Different
Beyond the electric powertrain, two features set the Silverado EV apart from a standard pickup bed and suspension.
Multi-Flex Midgate
The Multi-Flex Midgate is a folding partition between the cabin and bed. Fold down 40% of it for "skis and surfboard" mode to slide long, narrow items into the cabin while keeping a rear seat usable, fold the 60% side for wider cargo like furniture, or fold both flat for a wall-to-wall opening. With the Midgate and tailgate both open and the load stop engaged, maximum flat floor length reaches 10 feet 10 inches.
Trail Boss Off-Road Package
Trail Boss pairs its 2-inch factory lift and 35-inch all-terrain tires with four-wheel steering and available CrabWalk for tight maneuverability on rugged terrain, plus standard skid plates and red recovery hooks — genuine off-road hardware, not just a styling package.
The Silverado EV's PowerBase system turns the truck into a mobile power source, exporting up to 10.2 kW across as many as 10 outlets — including a 240V outlet in the bed — enough to run job-site tools or camping equipment without a separate generator. Paired with a GM Energy Home system, it can also provide backup power to your house, similar to a whole-home generator.
Battery coverage on every Silverado EV
The Silverado EV's high-voltage battery is covered by GM's 8-year/100,000-mile warranty (whichever comes first), which protects against defects and covers capacity dropping below roughly 70-75% within that window. High-mileage drivers should note the 100,000-mile limit is often what ends coverage first, not the 8-year mark.
What Happens After You Reserve
Placing a reservation isn't the same as driving off the lot the same week — here's what the process actually looks like.
Once you've chosen a trim, battery pack, and any packages, our team submits your build to GM and gives you an estimated production and delivery window based on current allocation for that configuration. Because EV production schedules shift with battery and chip supply, timelines can move — we'll keep you updated rather than leave you guessing. If you're trading in a current vehicle toward your Silverado EV, getting a real number on it through our trade-in tool before your order is finalized makes the final numbers cleaner.
Reserve early if you want a specific configuration
Popular trim and battery combinations — especially Trail Boss and Max Range LT — tend to have longer allocation queues than base WT configurations. If you have a specific build in mind, reserving now rather than waiting for lot inventory gives you a much better shot at getting exactly what you want.
Worth budgeting for before you finalize your order: insurance on an EV pickup can run higher than on a comparable gas truck, largely because the high-voltage battery pack itself is expensive to replace if it's ever damaged. Getting a real insurance quote on your specific trim and configuration before delivery avoids an unpleasant surprise on your first bill.
If you're outfitting a work fleet rather than a personal vehicle, talk to our team about ordering multiple units together — batching identical or near-identical configurations through one order can simplify both the allocation process and your fleet's delivery timeline compared to ordering trucks one at a time. It's also worth asking about charging equipment for a fleet lot at the same time you place the order, since planning power capacity for several trucks charging together is a very different exercise than sizing a single home charger.
Servicing Your Silverado EV After Delivery
An electric Silverado still needs real maintenance — just a different kind than a gas truck.
Tire rotations, brake service, and periodic high-voltage battery and drive-unit checks all still apply, and they need to be handled by technicians actually trained on GM's Ultium EV platform. Our EV-certified technicians service every Chevy EV model we sell, so support doesn't end the day you take delivery.

What's the battery warranty on a Silverado EV?
The high-voltage battery is covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first, protecting against defects and against capacity dropping below roughly 70-75% within that window.
