Silverado EV range with a trailer
A trailer adds weight, but at highway speed the bigger cost is aerodynamic drag from its flat front. A low, light utility or boat trailer costs less range than a tall travel trailer. Published tests of electric trucks towing campers commonly land between 40% and 60% of rated range, which is the band below.
| Version | Rated | Light trailer (60%) | Typical (50%) | Heavy or tall (40%) | Typical at 0°C |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WT Max Range | 793 km | 476 km | 396 km | 317 km | 345 km |
| WT Extended Range | 682 km | 409 km | 341 km | 273 km | 297 km |
| LT Extended Range (11.5 kW charger) | 660 km | 396 km | 330 km | 264 km | 287 km |
