Chevy's Guide to Electric and Hybrid Options

December 06, 2024 · 3 min read

Chevy is on a mission to cover all its bases by offering both internal combustion engines and electric versions of nearly every car it rolls out. And as the following three Chevy EV and Chevy hybrid options show, they're not just testing the waters; they're all in.

3 Chevy EV and Chevy Hybrid Options

1. Equinox EV

The Equinox EV is Chevy's take on what an all-electric compact SUV should look and feel like. And if we were to judge it by looks alone, we can confidently say it's one of the best-looking EVs on the market. At first glance, you won't even know it's electric, and that's the idea here. As for range, Chevy estimates that this model can go for 319 miles on a full charge.

Inside, this car is everything you require from an SUV. It's quiet, comfortable, and has a sleek, modern design that doesn't try to reinvent the wheel. The Equinox EV can comfortably sit up to five people. For all your storage needs, you get up to 57.2 cubic feet and an innovative dual-height cargo floor to handle whatever you need to throw in the back.

2. Blazer EV

You can think of the Blazer EV as the Equinox EV's bigger, bolder sibling. Not only does it bring more muscle in terms of size, but it also ups the game with an optional rear-wheel drive system: a nice contrast to the Equinox EV's front- and all-wheel drive configurations. Oh, the range is larger too, sitting at 324 miles for RWD models.

Its interior is just as bold as the outside, if not bolder. There's a 17.7-inch touchscreen display with Google built-in, an 11-inch digital cluster gauge, wireless charging (optional), stain-resistant seats, and more. You can step up to the RS trim for added amenities such as a heated race car-inspired flat-bottom steering wheel, driver's seat memory, a two-zone AC, heated and cooled front seats, and an optional head-up display.

3. Silverado EV

Carrying the name 'Silverado', Chevy's classic workhorse, means the Silverado EV has some pretty big boots to fill. But don't worry. It does. It's a proper truck and has the numbers to prove it.

With Wide Open Watts (essentially, a driving mode), the Silverado churns out approximately 760 horsepower, 785 pound-feet of torque, and a 0 to 60 time of under 4.5 seconds. And the numbers don't stop there. It also has a range of 460 miles and a maximum towing capacity of up to 10,000 pounds.

Ready to take any of these vehicles for a spin? Contact Ewald Chevrolet in Oconomowoc, WI, and schedule your test drive today. We can even arrange financing to make your purchase that much easier.
