2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV LT in Greensboro, NC
Winter range, charging cost and how far it goes, worked out for Greensboro's weather, grid and prices.
Winter barely touches range in Greensboro: at a typical January's 40°F, a Silverado EV LT gets an estimated 389 miles on a charge, within 8% of its 424-mile rating. Charging at home at North Carolina's average rate (15.2¢/kWh) costs about $86 a month for 38 miles a day, about a third of the $263 a gas Silverado costs on the Lower Atlantic's gas.

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 Greensboro drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV LT go in a Greensboro winter?
Greensboro's winters are mild: about 389 miles on a typical January day (40°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around January 12, 39°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's within 9% of its 424-mile rating.
How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV LT in Greensboro?
About $86 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at North Carolina's average home electricity rate of 15.2¢/kWh: about 7.5¢ 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 LT on a regular 120 V outlet in Greensboro?
Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 32 miles in 12 hours on an average day (30 in the coldest week). Plan on 240 V, which fills it from 10% in about 10 hours.
Is it greener to drive electric on Greensboro's grid?
Yes, more than most places. Greensboro's grid (SERC Virginia/Carolina) is 23% cleaner than the US average, so a Silverado EV LT charged on it makes 75% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
