No Major Changes

The Chevrolet Silverado is sticking around for at least another year. The 2027 model year will get a $400 price bump. No major changes are expected for next year’s model, and the price increase depends on the trim: work trucks get a $400 bump, while the Trail Boss and LT trims get a $200 bump.

It is a modest price increase, hitting slightly harder in the Silverado EV’s utilitarian lineup, but Chevrolet is at least keeping the Silverado EV around, a move that’s not mirrored by rivals like the Blue Oval, which axed its full-sized electric truck.

Work Trucks and Trail Bosses

Prices don’t include the destination fees for the Silverado EV. Cars Direct got their hands on an order guide for the Silverado EV, and if you’ve seen the price list before, blink, and you might miss the differences.

Variants with a $400 increase

  • 4WT Work Truck: Now $53,200
  • 5WT Work Truck: Now $66,600
  • 8WT Work Truck: Now $74,600

Variants with a $200 increase

  • 2LT: Now $61,100
  • 3LT: Now $69,300
  • 2TR Trail Boss: Now $70,200
  • 3TR Trail Boss: Now $86,800

Beyond this price increase, there is no definite word yet on how long Chevrolet will continue to make the Silverado EV. Ford has discontinued its Lightning pickup truck, RAM’s moving to REEVs, but Chevy’s still sticking with its EV truck format.

Fewer Trims But Still-Competitive Prices

In addition to the price increase, Chevrolet is also downsizing the Silverado EV lineup. As per the list, there are no more 4LT and RST Stars and Stripes trims for the 2027 model year. Apart from the Trailboss, the Silverado EV lineup will get a little less snazzy moving forward.

Still, the Silverado EV’s starting price is more affordable than the Rivian R1T, GMC Sierra EV, Tesla Cybertruck, and GMC Hummer EV Pickup. It’s the most affordable full-size electric truck among those mentioned.
