i

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.

Questions Stockton drivers ask

How far can a Silverado EV LT go in a Stockton winter?

Stockton's winters are mild: about 405 miles on a typical January day (48°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around December 23, 47°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's within 5% of its 424-mile rating.

How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV LT in Stockton?

About $189 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at California's average home electricity rate of 33.6¢/kWh: about 16.4¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on California's average gas ($6.03 a gallon) costs about $410 a month for the same driving.

Can I charge a Silverado EV LT on a regular 120 V outlet in Stockton?

Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 32 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.

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

Yes, more than most places. Stockton's grid (WECC California) is 44% cleaner than the US average, so a Silverado EV LT charged on it makes 82% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
