A spacious four-door crew-cab configuration is standard across the lineup. The styling radically differs from the regular Silverado, particularly the pickup's distinctive signature lighting. Chevrolet provides generous passenger space in the Silverado EV's modern cabin. The RST offers two-tone leather upholstery and a fixed glass roof. There's a huge storage bin between the front seats for small and not-so-small items. Cargo Capacity When properly equipped, the Silverado EV offers a maximum towing capacity of 10,000 pounds. The 4WT has a payload of up to 1,400 pounds, while the RST's maximum payload is 1,300 pounds.

The RST has a unique 60/40-split Multi-Flex Midgate between the bed and cab that you can fold to increase the load floor, giving you over 9 feet of storage. Combined with the Multi-Flex Tailgate load stop, this feature enables you to load items up to 10-foot-10-inches long.
