2027 Chevrolet Silverado EV: What’s New, What’s Changing, and What Stays the Same
The 2027 Chevrolet Silverado EV is a carryover with a handful of meaningful updates. The biggest is under the charge door: the truck now has a native NACS (SAE J3400) charge port in place of the CCS1 port it launched with. The lineup also gets simpler, with the 4LT and RST trims retired, four new exterior colors, and slightly higher reported prices. The dual-motor, all-wheel-drive powertrain and the three battery choices carry over, so if you already know the Silverado EV, this guide covers exactly what is different.

What Is New on the 2027 Silverado EV
A Native NACS Charge Port
For 2027, the Silverado EV uses a native NACS inlet (SAE J3400, the connector Tesla popularized) instead of the CCS1 port it launched with. That makes it simpler to plug in at NACS stations, including Tesla Superchargers, without relying on an adapter. The Dual Level Charge Cord that comes with the truck is reported to move to the J3400 connection as well.
Four New Exterior Colors
According to the 2027 order guide, four exterior colors are swapped out for four new ones. Ask us which colors are available on the Silverado EV models you are considering.
What Is Changing From Earlier Model Years
The 4LT and RST Trims Are Retired
The 2027 order guide drops the 4LT trim, which paired the LT with the Max Range battery and Super Cruise, along with the RST (including the Stars & Stripes version). What remains are three core trims, Work Truck, LT, and Trail Boss, each offered with different battery choices for seven versions in total: three Work Truck, two LT, and two Trail Boss.
Prices Edge Up
Reported order-guide pricing puts the 2027 Silverado EV $200 to $400 above 2026, with the entry Work Truck starting at $53,200 before destination. Pricing varies by trim, battery, and options, and it does not include destination, taxes, title, license, or dealer fees. Ask Kunes Chevrolet Cadillac of Delavan for current numbers on a specific truck.
What Stays the Same
The 2027 Silverado EV keeps its dual electric motors with all-wheel drive standard and its three battery choices: Standard Range, Extended Range, and Max Range. Chevrolet advertises up to a GM-estimated 478 miles of range on the Max Range Trail Boss, up to 775 lb.-ft. of torque with Wide Open Watts, and up to 12,500 lbs. of available towing capability. Available DC fast charging and the myChevrolet app for route planning and finding public chargers also carry over. The truck is still part of the first Silverado EV generation, and reports indicate a refresh could come for 2028.
2027 Silverado EV Trims: Work Truck vs. LT vs. Trail Boss
Silverado EV Work Truck
The entry point to the lineup, offered with all three battery packs. Choose the Work Truck if you want electric capability for the job site, a fleet, or a business at the lowest starting price.
Silverado EV LT
A step up in comfort and features, offered with the Standard Range and Extended Range batteries. Choose the LT if you want an everyday electric pickup with more equipment.
Silverado EV Trail Boss
The off-road-ready trim, with a 2-inch lift, 18-inch wheels with 35-inch all-terrain tires, standard four-wheel steer, and Sidewinder diagonal steering. Super Cruise driver-assistance technology with trailering is available. Choose the Trail Boss if you want the most capable Silverado EV, including the Max Range version with the longest estimated range.
Features and packages vary by trim, and we can walk you through a full comparison on any Silverado EV. Super Cruise and other driver-assistance features are not a substitute for safe, attentive driving.
Should You Buy a 2026 Silverado EV or Wait for the 2027?
Go with the 2027 if you want the native NACS charge port or one of the four new colors. A remaining 2026 can make sense if you are shopping for the 4LT or an RST trim that no longer exists for 2027, or if a discount outweighs the small price increase for the new model year. Either way, we will work through the numbers with you.
