2026 Chevy Silverado EV Gets 454 Miles In Highway Range Test - CleanTechnica

The 2026 Chevy Silverado EV recently demonstrated a highway range of 454 miles on a single charge during real-world driving conditions at highway speeds, highlighting its strong performance beyond EPA estimates. Previous tests have shown even more impressive results, such as driving over 1,000 miles at slower speeds (20-25 mph) on real roads, and other electric vehicles like the Cadillac Escalade achieving over 600 miles per charge at highway speeds. These findings emphasize that electric vehicle (EV) range can vary significantly based on driving habits, speeds, and conditions, rather than relying solely on EPA ratings. The article stresses that different use cases and driver behaviors greatly influence EV range. For example, slower speeds, less aggressive driving, and hypermiling techniques can extend range well beyond official estimates. Conversely, driving fast with heavy AC use and poor planning can drastically reduce range, as illustrated by a driver who experienced limited range in a Chevy Bolt due to such factors.
