Questions Augusta drivers ask

How far can a Silverado EV 4WT go in a Augusta winter?

Augusta's winters are mild: about 447 miles on a typical January day (47°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around January 9, 47°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's about its 450-mile rating.

How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV 4WT in Augusta?

About $101 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at Georgia's average home electricity rate of 16.3¢/kWh: about 8.7¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on the Lower Atlantic's average gas ($3.86 a gallon) costs about $263 a month for the same driving.

Can I charge a Silverado EV 4WT on a regular 120 V outlet in Augusta?

Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 29 miles in 12 hours on an average day (29 in the coldest week). Plan on 240 V, which fills it from 10% in about 11 hours.

Is it greener to drive electric on Augusta's grid?

Yes. Augusta's grid (SERC South) is 10% dirtier than the US average, but a Silverado EV 4WT charged on it still makes 61% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
