The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado Trail Boss EV: Off-Road Power with Electric Innovation
Chevrolet is redefining what it means to go off-road with the all-new 2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss. Merging rugged capability with cutting-edge EV technology, the Trail Boss trim will officially join the Silverado EV lineup this summer. For fans of the iconic Trail Boss look and feel, this electric version delivers everything you love and more.
Trail Boss Capability, Supercharged with EV Power
The Trail Boss trim has long been one of Chevrolet’s most popular off-road options, and it’s now getting the EV treatment. Designed for adventurous drivers who want power, performance, and sustainability, the Silverado EV Trail Boss delivers exceptional capability:
- A 2-inch lift and 24% higher ground clearance than the base Silverado EV
- Tuned coil suspension with hydraulic rebound control
- Terrain Mode and Sidewinder Mode for next-level off-road control
- 4-Wheel Steer for enhanced low-speed maneuvering
- Maximum 12,500 lbs of towing capacity and 2,100 lbs of payload with the extended-range battery
- Up to 725 horsepower and 775 lb-ft of torque
These features make it more than just an electric truck—it’s a true off-road machine built for trails, hills, and whatever comes your way.
Rugged Design That Stands Out
The Silverado EV Trail Boss doesn’t just perform like a boss—it looks like one too. Chevrolet designed this trim to signal off-road confidence from every angle:
- Bold, high-angle approach front fascia
- Aggressive 35-inch all-terrain tires paired with exclusive 18-inch wheels
- Trail Boss-specific badging and red front tow hooks
- Unique Trail Boss interior with added functionality
- Integrated auxiliary switches for custom lights and gear
With nine available exterior colors, including new shades like Magnus Gray Matte Metallic and Polar White Tricoat, personalization options are better than ever.
Smarter Driving with Super Cruise and Advanced Tech
Chevy’s Super Cruise driver-assistance system comes enhanced for the 2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss. Drivers can now enjoy:
- Lane-aware Google Maps integration for smoother routing
- Hands-on assistance that adapts to traffic and lane changes
- Hands-free driving on Super Cruise-enabled roads
- Adaptive Cruise Control with automatic speed limit matching
- Super Cruise with towing functionality for Trail Boss and LT trims
You also get a premium in-cabin experience, thanks to a 17.7-inch infotainment screen paired with an 11-inch driver display, now standard even on the base Work Truck trim.
Expanded Lineup, More Choices
The 2026 Silverado EV family now includes three trims: Work Truck (WT), LT, and the all-new Trail Boss EV. Chevy is sunsetting the initial launch RST trim in favor of a more flexible lineup that suits every budget and need. Highlights across the range include:
- Starting MSRP of $54,895
- Up to 10.2kW of off-board power
- Multi-Flex Midgate available on LT and Trail Boss
- WOW (Wide Open Watts) Mode to unlock full horsepower and torque
Whether you’re headed off-grid or navigating tight city streets, the 2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss proves you don’t have to compromise power for sustainability.
