2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV LT in Tulsa, OK
Winter range, charging cost and how far it goes, worked out for Tulsa's weather, grid and prices.
Winter barely touches range in Tulsa: at a typical January's 39°F, a Silverado EV LT gets an estimated 384 miles on a charge, within 10% of its 424-mile rating. Charging at home at Oklahoma's average rate (14.3¢/kWh) costs about $82 a month for 38 miles a day, about a third of the $282 a gas Silverado costs on the Midwest's gas. Tulsa's grid (SPP South) is 14% dirtier than the US average, but charging on it still makes 63% less CO₂ than 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 Tulsa drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV LT go in a Tulsa winter?
Tulsa's winters are mild: about 384 miles on a typical January day (39°F) and about 381 in the coldest week (around January 6, 38°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's within 10% of its 424-mile rating.
How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV LT in Tulsa?
About $82 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at Oklahoma's average home electricity rate of 14.3¢/kWh: about 7.1¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on the Midwest's average gas ($4.14 a gallon) costs about $282 a month for the same driving.
Can I charge a Silverado EV LT on a regular 120 V outlet in Tulsa?
Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 32 miles in 12 hours on an average day (29 in the coldest week). Plan on 240 V, which fills it from 10% in about 10 hours.
Is it greener to drive electric on Tulsa's grid?
Yes. Tulsa's grid (SPP South) is 14% dirtier than the US average, but a Silverado EV LT charged on it still makes 63% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
