Questions Las Vegas drivers ask

How far can a Silverado EV 3WT go in a Las Vegas winter?

Las Vegas's winters are mild: about 407 miles on a typical January day (49°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around December 18, 46°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's within 3% of its 393-mile rating. The harder season here is summer: about 392 miles in July, with the air conditioning on.

How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV 3WT in Las Vegas?

About $74 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at Nevada's average home electricity rate of 12.8¢/kWh: about 6.4¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on the West Coast's average gas ($5.01 a gallon) costs about $341 a month for the same driving.

Can I charge a Silverado EV 3WT on a regular 120 V outlet in Las Vegas?

Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 30 miles in 12 hours on an average day (32 in the coldest week). Plan on 240 V, which fills it from 10% in about 10 hours.

Is it greener to drive electric on Las Vegas's grid?

Yes. Las Vegas's grid (WECC Southwest) is about the US average, and a Silverado EV 3WT charged on it makes 69% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
