General Motors unveiled the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV early in January, debuting an all-new battery-driven version of the popular light duty pickup truck. Now, we’re getting an up-close look at the Chevy Silverado EV’s lighting details.
The new design images were recently posted to social media by the General Motors design team, and includes a shot of GM car and truck designer Jacky Zhan going over a few different angles of the Chevy Silverado EV’s exterior. The post also includes a close-up image of the new all-electric pickup’s lighting elements, giving us a clear picture of what’s going on in the front end of the vehicle.
As we can see from the design image, the upper portion of the fascia incorporates thin lighting signatures with daytime running lights that stretch across the front of the vehicle, complemented by a charging level indicator in the corner of the upper light. The design image also shows an amber corner light with a small Chevy bow tie badge in the corner.
Below the thin upper elements is the primary forward-facing light, which incorporates an LED projector for both the high beams and the low beams. Below the primary beam is a unique inner styling element, finished in silver. The layout is vaguely reminiscent of the new restyled 2022 Chevy Bolt EV and new 2022 Chevy Bolt EUV, providing some continuity between Chevy’s all-electric offerings.

Based on GM’s BT1 dedicated EV-architecture, the Chevy Silverado EV incorporates the automaker’s Ultium battery technology and Ultium electric motor technology, with a dual-motor e4WD system offered. Two trims have been revealed thus far, including the RST First Edition, rated at 664 horsepower and 780 pound-feet of torque, and the WT, rated at 510 horsepower and 615 pound-feet of torque. DC fast-charge capabilities provide upward of 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes. Maximum range-per-charge is estimated at 400 miles.

Looks like some very high end plastic to me.
Better than low-quality plastic.
Hmmm…Mark all headlights these days are plastic but I will admit the RST costs a lot of money 💰!
Real glass adds unwanted weight. Plastic is fine.
well, had seen already that in instagram
about the upper picture… some design problems :
1. The Hood / Fender dark line does not match with the End of the 3 light stripes, tiny, it is dislocated.
2. The same dark line does not match with the End Curve left line with the light stripe, also dislocated
2.a. because of 2, the space between the light stripe with orange blinker seems out of same surface, poor done
3. and the same dark line above in 1 does not match at all this detail this japanese guy did in Tablet or
the detail is so complicated strange … it does not fit itself with any car…
the detail presented… itself resembles a small robot, those in film WallE of Pixar, which some goes crazy in aisle…
but ok, the japanese guy did a dream job in GM Design Advanced Studio in Warren probably… he reached…
for me would be impossible, even with CV to same GM USA in past, you know, without a green card, GM just ignore…
In my honest oponion, i think just because elon musk made a aluminum square block with wheels there is no reason to follow suit thinking every one wants that. Chevy trucks have been popular for one simple reason they were cheap to work on. Make it out of the cheapest crapy stuff ypu can find charge 50k + and call it chevy these days.. you wont catch me ever drivibg an electric car, truck. Its just a huge gimmick. You get a go cart that weighs 10000% with the same pit falls and spend way more then what you get. Sorry im out ill stick with my 1999 chevy pick up the last of the all steel truck.
I’ve a got a 99 2500 HD silverado myself and absolutely love it. It’s a gas motor but is the 6.0 and man it’s a pullin mofo. I agree that we’ve got the last of the metal trucks that were actually built too last.
That Silverado is ’23 Z06 money! If you can actually get a hold of one.
buy a new truck average workers can’t afford your trucks.
In my opinion the same gm designer that worked on the C8 Corvette worked on the Silverado front end. Some people like both designs but to me nothing seems to flow coherently. Kind of a choose one from bin A, and one from a bin B approach.
EV Truck?
Let’s see, what are some words that define that concept?
*Oxymoron
*Sacrilege
*Travesty
Feel free to add whatever…lol
All the sudden we go from polluting with exhaust to contamination from more electronic waste. It’s kinda like using sugar then to using aspartame.
This is the type of truck city-dwellers should get if they only take a weekend trip to Home Depot. EVs aren’t workers, nor for weekend fun via towing a trailer. Stick with ICE trucks to do truck things.
