Notes on these figures
- Consumption, range and battery size come from NRCan Fuel Consumption Ratings MY2025–2026: Silverado EV LT Ext Range (11.5 kW Charger) | Silverado EV LT Ext Range (19.2 kW Charger), re-checked against NRCan's open data.
- Charging rewards use each program's published rate at this car's own monthly kWh, so tiered programs are integrated up their ladder rather than charged a flat rate.
- Rebate figures are for a new battery electric vehicle; price caps and residency conditions still apply – see rebates and their conditions.
