Chevy Silverado EV vs. Tesla Cybertruck

In the world of all-electric trucks, competition is fierce, with the Chevy Silverado EV and the Tesla Cybertruck on many shoppers’ lists. So, how do these two models compare in a head-to-head comparison? The Chevy model reigns supreme, and the experts at Casey Chevrolet can’t wait to show you why.

Power and Performance

When it comes to brawn, there’s really no comparison between these two models. While the Tesla trucks’ 593 maximum horsepower and 525 lb-ft of maximum torque are respectable, the Chevy Silverado EV delivers an astounding 760 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque. Here are a few features that make the Chevrolet model so powerful while providing a smooth and comfortable ride:

• Dual motor 4WD system
• 205 kWh battery pack
• Ultium® Platform for enhanced power
• Available Four-Wheel Steer
• Available Four-Corner Air Ride adaptive suspension

These specs and components are beyond impressive, and they allow the Chevy truck to tow up to 12,500 pounds compared to the Tesla pickup’s 11,000-pound towing capacity.

Safety Features

Chevrolet models prioritize your safety, and the Chevy Silverado EV is no exception. The Tesla Cybertruck offers features like lane assist, collision avoidance assist, and speed assist. While those are all helpful amenities, they pale in comparison to the standard Chevy Safety Assist in the Chevy Silverado EV. This safety suite includes features like automatic emergency braking, front pedestrian braking, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, forward collision alert, following distance indicator, and IntelliBeam®, just to name a few.
