LUCAS CHEVROLET
Choose a 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV by the trailer you pull, the cargo you carry and where you charge. Lucas Chevrolet in Lumberton can help you compare those requirements with the equipment on an individual truck.
A larger battery does not automatically mean a higher trailer rating. Chevrolet assigns different capacities to Standard Range, Extended Range and Max Range configurations. Compare the battery and equipment shown in the Silverado EV inventory.
| Daily route | Where will charging fit between drives? |
|---|---|
| Trailer | What is its loaded weight and hitch load? |
| Cargo | Does it need a covered compartment or an open bed? |
The figures below are maximum conventional trailer ratings for the listed, properly equipped Crew Cab models. The Premium Package reduces the Extended Range rating, and Max Range Trail Boss has a different limit from Extended Range Trail Boss. Passengers, cargo, accessories and options can reduce the amount you may tow. Review the actual vehicle’s limits and the owner’s manual before selecting a trailer.
| Standard Range LT | Up to 8,500 lb, properly equipped |
|---|---|
| Extended Range LT without Premium Package | Up to 12,500 lb, properly equipped |
| Max Range LT | Up to 7,000 lb, properly equipped |
| Extended Range Trail Boss without Premium Package | Up to 12,500 lb, properly equipped |
Home charging capability and public fast charging are separate specifications. The battery and charging hardware determine what the vehicle supports; your electrical installation or the public station can impose a lower limit. Ask for a demonstration of the charge settings and a review of compatible equipment.
| Standard Range AC capability | Up to 11.5 kW |
|---|---|
| Standard Range DC capability | Up to 220 kW |
| Available upgraded AC capability | Up to 19.2 kW |
| Available upgraded DC capability | Up to 300 or 350 kW, configuration dependent |
EPA range estimates describe a particular configuration on a full charge. They are useful comparison points, but weather, terrain, loading and battery condition affect actual distance. Leave room in your charging plan for the trailer and cargo you expect to carry rather than treating an unloaded estimate as a towing promise.
| Max Range Work Truck | EPA-estimated 493 miles on a full charge |
|---|---|
| Cold weather or a loaded trailer | Allow for changed energy use |
| Public charging stop | Confirm station compatibility and access before departure |
The eTrunk gives you a lit, lockable, weatherproof compartment apart from the bed. Available Multi-Flex cargo equipment changes how longer items fit and how you reach the load. Test the opening and closing sequence with your passenger needs in mind; extending cargo into the cabin changes the space available behind the front seats.
| eTrunk | Enclosed front storage with tie-downs and drain holes |
|---|---|
| Available Multi-Flex Midgate | Bed-to-cabin cargo passage on LT and Trail Boss |
| Available Multi-Flex Tailgate | Multiple loading and access positions |
Trail Boss adds a lifted suspension, all-terrain tires and steering tools for low-speed positioning. Its Terrain mode helps manage uneven surfaces. Sidewinder provides diagonal movement when used within its operating conditions, so a demonstration matters more than assuming it behaves like a conventional turning maneuver.
| Factory suspension lift | 2 inches |
|---|---|
| Tires and wheels | 35-inch all-terrain tires on 18-inch wheels |
| Max Range with Wide Open Watts | Up to 725 hp; 775 lb-ft of torque |
An integrated trailer brake controller and Tow/Haul mode support trailer operation. Available camera equipment helps you inspect areas around the load, while Super Cruise with towing is offered on LT and Trail Boss. Driver assistance has operating limits and requires your attention; check the truck’s equipment and any required service plan.
| Hitch Guidance with Hitch View | Helps view the hitching area |
|---|---|
| Available Bed View Camera | Provides a camera view of the bed |
| Available Super Cruise | Hands-free assistance on compatible roads with the required plan |
Available offboard power can run compatible equipment away from an electrical outlet. Its maximum output requires the specified charging module and accessory Power Bar. Compare the electrical demand of your tools with the outlets and equipment fitted to the truck, especially if several devices will run together.
| Offboard power maximum | Up to 10.2 kW with required equipment |
|---|---|
| Specified equipment for maximum output | Accessory Power Bar and 19.2-kW charging module |
| Bed outlets | Available household-style and higher-voltage outlets |
Tires, brakes and other vehicle systems still need inspection on an electric pickup. The owner’s manual ties maintenance to the vehicle and its operating conditions. Ask our service department how your towing use affects care, and have charging concerns checked rather than guessing at a battery fault.
| Before delivery | Review charging access and supplied charging accessories |
|---|---|
| Before towing | Check tires, load distribution and trailer connections |
| During service | Describe changes in braking, tire wear or charging behavior |
Yes, properly equipped Extended Range LT and Extended Range Trail Boss configurations have a maximum conventional towing rating of 12,500 pounds. Equipment packages can change that rating. Confirm the specific vehicle’s capacity with your loaded trailer weight, passengers and cargo rather than applying the maximum to every Silverado EV.
No. Battery range and trailer capacity are different specifications. Chevrolet’s towing chart gives Max Range and Extended Range trucks different ratings, and some packages change those limits again. Select the truck around your loaded trailer and charging requirements together, then verify that the exact vehicle meets both needs.
Start by identifying a parking location with access to suitable electrical service. Discuss the truck’s AC charging capability with a qualified installer before choosing equipment. Electrical capacity, installation requirements and your driving routine affect the setup, so confirm the site and vehicle specifications before purchasing a charger for home use.
The station’s output, the truck’s charging capability, battery temperature, battery condition and starting charge level all affect charging speed. A published peak is not a promise for every session. When comparing trucks, check the battery configuration and plan charging stops with enough flexibility for station conditions along the route.
It can be, provided the load arrangement leaves appropriate seating and restraint use for your passengers. The available Midgate opens a passage between the bed and rear cabin. Have Lucas Chevrolet demonstrate the seat and opening positions, then check how your longer cargo would be secured before relying on that arrangement.
Bring the trailer’s loaded weight information, hitch requirements and a description of your passengers and cargo. Those details help distinguish trailer capacity from the truck’s other weight limits. Also describe your usual trip length and charging access so the battery choice supports the work you expect the pickup to do.
Ask Lucas Chevrolet to evaluate your trade-in while you compare Silverado EV configurations. Bring the vehicle details and any loan payoff information so the appraisal and financing discussion can address your situation. A test drive also gives you time to assess the truck’s size, controls and visibility before making a decision.
Arrange your Silverado EV test drive at Lucas Chevrolet in Lumberton. We can review the equipment on the truck, discuss your trade-in and financing or lease questions, and connect you with service for charging and maintenance support.
