Fuel economy at a glance
These are the EPA's official ratings for the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. The numbers come from a standardised laboratory test cycle and are the same figures that appear on the window sticker of every new car. Real-world mileage varies with driving style, weather, fuel quality, and how heavily loaded the car is.
When the EPA tests several variants of the same nameplate (for example, a front-wheel-drive version and an all-wheel-drive version), each gets its own rating. The figures shown here are the headline variant, taken as the configuration with the best combined MPG. The trims table further down covers all 2 variants side by side.
Combined MPG is a 55/45 weighted blend of the city and highway test cycles. The EPA uses it as the single number you can compare across the entire dataset, including hybrids and EVs (which use the equivalent MPGe figure).
| Combined MPG | 67 MPG |
| City MPG | 72 MPG |
| Highway MPG | 62 MPG |
| Annual fuel cost | $1,150 |
| Tailpipe CO₂ | — |
| Fuel type | Electricity |
How the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV compares
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV returns 67 combined MPG. Cars in the Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD class for the same model year average 46.9 MPG, which puts this car ahead of the class average by about 43%.
The most efficient car in the Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD class for the 2024 model year is the Rivian R1T Dual Max (21in) at 84 MPG. The bar chart below puts the Chevrolet Silverado EV alongside the class best and the class average so you can see the full picture.
For broader context, the average new car of the 2024 model year (across all classes) returns 40.9 MPG. Larger vehicles pull the all-cars average down, so do not use that figure on its own to judge a small car or a hybrid. The full list of the most efficient cars of the 2024 model year is on its own page.
Trim variants rated for 2024
The EPA rates 2 separate variants of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. The differences come from the engine size, transmission type, and drivetrain (front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, and so on). The same nameplate can land several MPG apart depending on the configuration you actually buy.
The most efficient configuration on this page returns 67 MPG, while the least efficient returns 63 MPG. That is a spread of 4 MPG between trims of the same nameplate.
| Engine and transmission | Drive | Combined | City | Highway | Annual cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Automatic (A1) | All-Wheel Drive | 67 MPG | 72 MPG | 62 MPG | $1,150 |
| Automatic (A1) | All-Wheel Drive | 63 MPG | 67 MPG | 59 MPG | $1,200 |
Annual fuel cost across driving patterns
The headline annual fuel cost the EPA publishes assumes 15,000 miles of driving per year and a fuel mix of 55% city and 45% highway. The dollar figure is calculated using the EPA's current reference price for electricity, which is $0.15/kilowatt-hour. EPA updates that reference periodically rather than tracking live pump prices, so treat it as a window-sticker estimate rather than today's pump number.
The table below scales the EPA's number to three common driving patterns. The combined MPGe and the reference electricity price stay constant, only the annual mileage changes. Charging at home rather than at a public DC fast charger usually lowers the real cost below the EPA's published figure.
| Driving pattern | Estimated annual fuel cost |
|---|---|
| Light driver, 7,500 miles per year | $575 |
| Average driver, 15,000 miles per year | $1,150 |
| Heavy driver, 25,000 miles per year | $1,917 |

Specifications
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV is a fully electric vehicle. It is powered by 189 and 189 kw acpm. The EPA rates its driving range at 393 miles.
Engine, transmission, and drivetrain together drive most of the variation in fuel economy across trims. A larger engine moves the car with less effort but burns more fuel. A turbo lets a small engine punch above its weight, often without much MPG penalty. All-wheel drive adds traction and weight, and usually costs a couple of MPG compared with two-wheel drive of the same engine.

-
Is the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV fuel efficient?
Yes. The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV returns 67 combined MPG, which beats the average car in the Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD class for the same model year by about 43%. -
What MPG does the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV get?
The EPA rates the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV at 67 combined MPG, 72 MPG in city driving, and 62 MPG on the highway. Real-world numbers depend on your driving style, the weather, and how loaded the car is. -
How much does it cost to fuel a 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV per year?
The EPA estimates an annual fuel cost of $1,150 for the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. That figure assumes 15,000 miles of driving per year, a 55% city and 45% highway split, and the EPA's published average fuel price for the rated fuel grade. -
Does the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV use gasoline?
No. The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV is fully electric and runs on grid electricity. The MPGe figure on this page converts electricity use into a gasoline-equivalent so you can compare it directly to a regular car. -
How much CO₂ does the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV emit?
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV produces zero tailpipe emissions because it runs entirely on electricity. The full carbon footprint of charging it depends on how the electricity on your local grid is generated, which varies a lot from one state to another. -
What is the difference between the city and highway MPG of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV?
City driving returns 72 MPG and highway driving returns 62 MPG. A flat (or city-better) split is the signature of a hybrid or electric drivetrain, where regenerative braking recovers energy that would otherwise be lost in stop-start city traffic. -
What motor does the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV use?
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV uses 189 and 189 kW ACPM. Electric motors do not have a displacement or cylinder count the way a combustion engine does, so EPA reporting focuses on the motor type and battery system instead. -
What transmission and drivetrain does the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV have?
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV comes with a automatic (a1) transmission and all-wheel drive. All-wheel-drive variants typically read 1 to 3 MPG lower than the front-wheel-drive equivalent of the same engine, since the extra hardware adds weight and parasitic loss. -
