Questions Tampa drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV 3WT go in a Tampa winter?
Tampa's winters are mild: about 396 miles on a typical January day (62°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around January 12, 62°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's about its 393-mile rating.

About $89 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at Florida's average home electricity rate of 15.0¢/kWh: about 7.7¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on Florida's average gas ($3.98 a gallon) costs about $271 a month for the same driving.

Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 30 miles in 12 hours on an average day (31 in the coldest week). Plan on 240 V, which fills it from 10% in about 10 hours.

Yes. Tampa's grid (FRCC All) is about the US average, and a Silverado EV 3WT charged on it makes 65% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
