General Motors claimed a new world record for EV driving on a single charge, after a Chevy Silverado EV traveled 1,059.2 miles without recharging its battery.
The truck was a 2026 Chevy Silverado EV Work Truck with an EPA-estimated range of 493 miles.
Like far, far, far surpass.
Edmunds’s test of the Silverado EV Work Truck with the Max Range battery pack drove 539 miles on a single charge, 47 miles past its EPA estimate.
“It was a passion project led and executed by GM engineers.”Correction August 5th: An earlier version of this article misstated the location of GM’s test.
