Estimated. This model doesn't have enough real drives at each temperature yet, so these come from 1,548 real drives in EVs (98 of them this model's) at each temperature (and Recurrent's winter study below freezing), as a share of their own EPA ratings, applied to its 424-mile rating. Each temperature band switches to this model's own drives once it has 20 from 3 drivers.

Questions Cape Coral drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV LT go in a Cape Coral winter?

About $84 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at Florida's average home electricity rate of 15.0¢/kWh: about 7.2¢ 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 32 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.
