Charging at home at Florida's average rate (15.0¢/kWh) costs about $84 a month for 38 miles a day, about a third of the $271 a gas Silverado costs on Florida'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 Orlando drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV LT go in a Orlando winter?
Orlando's winters are mild: about 420 miles on a typical January day (61°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around January 10, 60°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's about its 424-mile rating.
How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV LT in Orlando?
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.
Can I charge a Silverado EV LT on a regular 120 V outlet in Orlando?
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.
Is it greener to drive electric on Orlando's grid?
Yes. Orlando's grid (FRCC All) is about the US average, and a Silverado EV LT charged on it makes 67% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
