The $40,000 Chevrolet Silverado EV Is Officially Dead

The $40,000 Chevrolet Silverado EV Is Officially Dead
Story by Tom Moloughney • 4h ago
 
While it may not come as a huge surprise, it's most definitely a big disappointment.
Chevrolet announced today that, unfortunately, it will not be offering an entry-level $40,000 Chevrolet Silverado EV after all.

Granted, it's not a complete surprise because the entire electric vehicle industry has been under pressure to increase prices in the past three years. Still, it's disappointing to find out with certainty that the possibility of being able to reserve an affordable, entry-level Silverado EV is gone.
 
Chevrolet's website had previously shown the Silverado EV could be reserved with an estimated base MSRP of $39,900

ICE baby ICE.   
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Electric pickup trucks are a ridiculous concept.
