Chevrolet has built some of the toughest pickups on the road for decades. The Silverado EV ZR2 concept recently entered the storied Mint 400 off-road contest. This electric contender conquered the punishing 73-mile loop, showing its strength on rugged ground. Chevy also ran its gasoline Silverado ZR2 and Colorado ZR2 race trucks at the event.
Remarkable Performance
The Silverado EV ZR2's three-motor electric drive cranks out an estimated 1,100 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque. It offers rapid acceleration and impressive towing potential. Upon completing the Mint 400, the EV ZR2 still registered 40 percent battery charge.
Off-Road Upgrades from the Factory
Chevrolet equipped the Silverado EV ZR2 concept with off-road-ready hardware. It features Multimatic Adaptive Spool Valve dampers for over 13 inches of travel, locking differentials for added traction, underbody skid plating, 37-inch BF Goodrich KM3 Mud Terrain tires, and a lifted suspension for maximum clearance.
2026 Silverado EV Trail Boss Launch
This summer, Chevrolet will launch the Silverado EV Trail Boss. This off-road edition includes a factory-installed lift, red tow hooks, 35-inch all-terrain tires, and an exclusive Terrain Mode, allowing for uncompromised electric off-roading.
