Shoppers considering an electric pickup in 2025 have two standout options under the GM family. The GMC Sierra EV and Chevrolet Silverado EV share the same Ultium platform, yet each brings a distinct personality to the road. One leans toward refinement and upscale comfort, while the other appeals to practical buyers with a broader price spectrum. Exploring their design, features, and driving dynamics helps highlight which model might suit different lifestyles best.
Design & Style
Strong first impressions matter, and both trucks create a presence with modern proportions and striking details. Silverado EV offers a versatile silhouette highlighted by a large front trunk, Multi-Flex Tailgate, and optional Midgate that extends the bed to nearly 11 feet. Design language favors function, with a sleek body profile and wide stance that communicates utility and strength.
By contrast, Sierra EV elevates the appearance with bold lighting signatures, sculpted body lines, and premium trim choices. Denali versions bring open-pore wood, stitched leather, and bright accents inside, paired with a panoramic glass roof for an upscale feel. Buyers seeking off-road styling will find the AT4 trim appealing, while Elevation provides a streamlined look at a more accessible price point.
Technology & Safety
Connectivity and safety features are among the most important considerations in modern trucks. Silverado EV carries a 17.7-inch infotainment display, paired with an 11-inch driver cluster. Google integration comes standard, and fast-charging compatibility adds convenience for long trips. Available four-wheel steering and Sidewinder diagonal maneuvering provide agility that is rare in a full-size pickup.
Sierra EV focuses on advanced driver assistance and convenience. Super Cruise enables hands-free highway driving, while a 16.8-inch display and 14-inch head-up unit keep vital information front and center. Standard safety includes automatic braking, pedestrian detection, and adaptive cruise control. Combined with premium audio and energy backup functions for the home, it presents a more comprehensive package for those valuing comfort and assurance.
Performance
Capability defines the backbone of both pickups, yet their execution differs slightly. Silverado EV delivers up to 754 horsepower in its RST trim and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in around 4.1 seconds. Towing capacity reaches an impressive 12,500 pounds, and maximum range touches nearly 492 miles with the largest battery option. Even the LT trim offers brisk acceleration at 4.2 seconds with wide power reserves.
Sierra EV matches much of this with dual motors producing 760 horsepower and 785 pound-feet of torque. It completes the sprint to 60 mph in just over four seconds and can tow up to 10,500 pounds. Range varies between 390 miles for Extended models and 460 miles for the Max configuration. Added features such as CrabWalk four-wheel steering and adaptive suspension highlight a balance between strength and sophistication.
The Bottom Line
Choosing between these two electric trucks depends on priorities. Silverado EV emphasizes broad accessibility, workhorse capability, and top-end range. It provides excellent value for those wanting raw numbers in towing and mileage.
Sierra EV distinguishes itself through refinement, driver aids, and distinctive design. While pricing skews higher, buyers gain upscale appointments and thoughtful details that add comfort to daily driving. With the addition of AT4 and Elevation trims, the lineup widens to meet more preferences without losing its polished identity.
