Electric pickup trucks, long the embodiment of American toughness, are charging into a new era, and the competition is fierce. Chevrolet’s 2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss, unveiled as a rugged rival to Tesla’s Cybertruck, is built to dominate both highways and backcountry trails.
Its design stays true to the iconic Silverado, but a 2-inch lift, chunky 35-inch all-terrain tires, and bold red tow hooks scream off-road swagger. Unique 18-inch wheels and a high-angle front fascia make it stand out, whether at a construction site or a mountain trail. Inside, it’s all about function with a tech upgrade: an 11-inch digital dashboard pairs with a massive 17-inch infotainment screen for a sleek, user-friendly experience. Three new colors, like Magnus Gray Matte Metallic, add a touch of personality.

With up to 725 horsepower and 775 lb-ft of torque from its dual-motor setup, the Trail Boss doesn’t mess around. It tows up to 10,000 pounds, making it a workhorse for hauling gear or trailers. Four-wheel steering and a re-tuned coil suspension keep it nimble, whether navigating tight trails or city streets. Chevy’s Terrain Mode, a low-speed cruise control for off-road, smooths out rocky paths with ease.
Range is king for electric trucks, and the Trail Boss delivers. Its Max battery pack boasts an EPA-estimated 478 miles, rivaling luxury EVs despite those chunky tires. The standard pack still manages 410 miles, plenty for long hauls or remote jobs. Starting at $72,095, with the Max pack at $88,695, it’s priced to compete, and a $7,500 federal tax credit sweetens the deal for eligible buyers. Supporting 350 kW DC fast charging, it juices up quickly, keeping downtime minimal.
That 2-inch lift boosts ground clearance by 24% over the standard Silverado EV, and those 35-inch tires grip dirt, rocks, or mud with confidence. The high-angle front fascia and red tow hooks signal it’s ready for serious trails, while four-wheel steering makes tight maneuvers a breeze. Chevy’s ZR2 race truck, which tackled the Mint 400, hints at the Trail Boss’s DNA. This truck isn’t just for show—it’s built to conquer the toughest terrain and come back for more.
Chevy packs the Trail Boss with tech that works. The upgraded Super Cruise system, now with Google Maps integration, offers hands-free driving even while towing—a truck first. The Multi-Flex Midgate extends the bed to 10 feet 10 inches, perfect for long loads. The infotainment system is user-friendly, avoiding the overcomplicated menus of some rivals. With deliveries expected by summer, the Trail Boss is poised to hit the ground running.
