The electric Chevrolet Silverado now has a date with destiny.

General Motors announced the electric Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck will be revealed during the 2022 Consumer Electronics Show keynote on Jan. 5, 2022 in Las Vegas.

Chevy also noted that the Silverado electric pickup truck will offer a fixed-glass roof on some models. In August, Chevrolet said the Silverado EV will feature four-wheel steering and up to 24-inch wheels. The former will be shared with the upcoming 2022 GMC Hummer EV pickup truck.

Mark Reuss, president of GM, noted during a call with the media that Silverado EV customers will be different from traditional truck buyers, but they will be "customers for the future of what trucks are going to look like."

The electric Chevy Silverado will be built alongside a full-size electric GMC pickup, both of which will ride on a dedicated truck EV platform. That platform underpins the GMC Hummer EV. It's powered by GM's Ultium batteries with pack sizes up to 200 kwh said to deliver more than 400 miles of range.
