Silverado EV

The Chevrolet Silverado EV enters the full-size electric truck segment as a purpose-built rival to the Ford F-150 Lightning and Ram 1500 REV, built on GM's Ultium platform rather than adapted from an ICE architecture. Reviewers at MotorTrend and Car and Driver have highlighted its industry-leading range figures — particularly the RST Max Range's 460-mile EPA rating — and its surprisingly compliant ride given its mass. The modular frunk, multi-flex tailgate, and available hands-free highway driving via Super Cruise are frequently cited as standout features that give it a genuine edge over competitors.

RST Max Range posts a 460-mile EPA-rated range, the highest of any full-size electric truck currently on sale

760 hp and a 4.0-second 0–60 mph time in the RST Max Range trim, with even base Work Truck delivering 510 hp and a 4.5-second sprint

Built on a dedicated EV platform, allowing a large front trunk and more usable cab and bed packaging compared to converted ICE-based competitors

Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance is available and covers an extensive mapped highway network, a capability Ford's equivalent system has not yet matched in scope

DC fast charging at up to 350 kW on higher trims enables meaningful real-world charging stops shorter than those of the F-150 Lightning

Entry Work Truck trim starts at $57,095 but the most desirable features — Max Range battery, Super Cruise, RST styling — are locked behind the $89,700 RST, a significant price jump

Curb weight exceeds 8,000 lbs on upper trims, which some reviewers note affects maneuverability in tight spaces and puts it over the threshold for certain parking structures

Availability has been limited and trim rollout phased, with the Work Truck initially restricted to fleet buyers, frustrating retail consumers who want the lower entry price

Interior quality on lower trims has drawn criticism from Edmunds reviewers for not fully matching the premium price point, with some hard plastics inconsistent with the overall cost

Hummer EV Pickup

The GMC Hummer EV Pickup is a full-size electric truck occupying a segment largely of its own making — a luxury-performance off-roader that prioritizes spectacle and capability over efficiency or practicality. Reviewers at MotorTrend and Car and Driver consistently cite its CrabWalk diagonal-drive feature and Extract Mode air suspension as genuinely useful off-road tools rather than gimmicks. At nearly $100,000 to start, it competes more with the Rivian R1T and Tesla Cybertruck than traditional truck buyers, and its 9,000-plus-pound curb weight shapes almost every aspect of the ownership experience.

3X tri-motor produces 830 hp and reaches 0–60 mph in 3.5 seconds, a legitimate performance benchmark that reviewers describe as viscerally shocking for a vehicle this size

CrabWalk four-wheel steering allows all four wheels to turn in the same direction at low speeds, enabling diagonal movement that provides genuine off-road and tight-space maneuvering advantages

Extract Mode raises the air suspension up to 6 inches for up to 15.9 inches of ground clearance, a measurable off-road asset confirmed by Edmunds and MotorTrend in trail testing

381-mile EPA range on the 3X trim is among the longest of any electric truck currently on sale, reducing range anxiety on long-haul trips

Removable Infinity Roof sky panels and an open-air driving experience reviewers note as a distinctive feature absent from most truck competitors

Curb weight exceeding 9,000 pounds results in handling reviewers consistently describe as ponderous on-road, with braking distances and body motions that feel mismatched to the performance numbers

Efficiency is poor even by large-truck standards, with real-world consumption figures frequently reported above 50 kWh per 100 miles in mixed driving, significantly worse than the Rivian R1T

Starting price of $98,845 for the 2X and $106,945 for the 3X places it well above most competitors, and several reviewers note the interior materials and fit-and-finish do not fully reflect that price point

DC fast-charging is capped at 350 kW on paper but real-world sessions reported by InsideEVs and owners fall short of that peak consistently, and the large battery means session times remain lengthy
