NRCan range est-754 km

[electriceddy]

For the "Work Truck trim of the 2024 Silverado EV Natural Resources Canada has applied a range estimate of a whopping 724 KM
"GM itself has been touting an estimated range of up to 640 kilometres, whilst referring to other trims such as the RST First Edition.
The entry level trim of this Ultium-powered truck cranks out 510 horsepower instead of the headline-grabbing 754 ponies found on the RST; while torque takes a dive from 785 to 615 lb-ft of twist. These numbers are still far above anything else on offer in GM’s half-ton class, so it’s unlikely drivers of a WT will feel shortchanged.
The WT will be able to haul 8,000 pounds compared to the RST’s round-number 10,000 pounds. And, yes, its range will surely drop precipitously if you elect to use that hauling capability — but so will the range of a gasoline-powered truck, remember."

That's 450 miles in freedom units! And still plenty of power.

That's almost too good to believe!! Will be another nail in the F150 Lightning coffin. Will see when the final specs and corresponding prices come out.

I do have one on order.

That's good for someone that needs 450 miles on a regular basis. As Tom points out in the podcast most people don't need that kind of range. With the Ford and Tesla deal, the F150 is more appealing for road trips even with a smaller range.

Maybe most people don't need 450-mile range, but many truck owners want to tow things. As InsideEVs' Steven Loveday reveals, the 230-mile range of the Ford F-150 Lightning drops to about 120 miles when towing an enclosed car trailer. It would be much better to start with 450 miles of range (or the Lightning's optional 320 miles) before hooking up the trailer.
