You feel it every Friday at the Wawa pump on Route 70. Premium has crept past $4.00 a gallon (as of this writing), and your trusty truck or SUV averages around 19 MPG. If you drive 1,200 miles a month commuting around Cherry Hill, Mount Laurel, and Camden County, you are burning roughly 63 gallons of fuel. At $4.00 a gallon, that math comes out to about $252 every month, just to keep your tank topped off. Over a year, you have already spent more than $3,000 on gasoline alone.

At Hessert Chevrolet of Cherry Hill, we hear the same story from neighbors walking onto our lot. Groceries cost more. Property taxes never go down. The last thing your budget needs is another surprise at the pump. That is exactly why we want to talk to you about the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV. Think of it as a budget hedge on four wheels, an everyday tool that puts money back where it belongs, in your pocket.

How Much Could the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV Save You Monthly?

Let us run the numbers in plain English. Your current 19 MPG vehicle costs you around $252 a month in gas for 1,200 miles. Now picture trading that fuel bill for a much smaller electricity bill at home.

The Chevrolet Silverado EV uses electricity, not gasoline, which means you charge up overnight in your garage instead of waiting in line at a gas station. Based on typical Cherry Hill home electricity rates, charging an EV truck like this for the same 1,200 miles a month tends to run you a fraction of what gasoline costs. Many South Jersey EV owners report savings in the range of $100 to $180 every month once they make the switch. Over the course of a year, that can add up to well over a thousand dollars staying in your checking account.

That is real money. Money for a vacation. Money for the mortgage. Money you do not have to think about handing over to the gas station every week.

Range That Outlasts Your Commute (And Then Some)

Worried about getting stranded? You will not be. The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV delivers up to a GM-estimated 478 miles of all-electric range. To put that in perspective, you could drive from Cherry Hill to Pittsburgh on a single charge. Your daily run to the office in Philly, school drop-off, and a Wegmans trip on the way home barely makes a dent.

When you do need to top off on the go, the available 350 kW DC Fast Charging capability adds a GM-estimated 120 miles of range in just 10 minutes. That is faster than grabbing a coffee inside the convenience store. Plus, Chevy customers now have access to a network of more than 250,000 chargers, including 20,000+ Tesla Supercharger locations across North America. Road trips down the shore or up to the Poconos are absolutely on the table.

Home Charging Fits Your Cherry Hill Life

The real magic of the Chevrolet Silverado EV happens in your own driveway. Home charging easily fits into your daily routine. You plug in when you get home, the truck charges quietly while you sleep, and you wake up to a “full tank” every morning. No detours. No waiting. No watching the price counter spin out of control.

With Level 2 charging at home, you can add a GM-estimated 24 to 41 miles of range per hour. Most Cherry Hill commutes are well under 50 miles round-trip, which means an overnight charge is more than enough to cover several days of driving.

Even better, the GM Energy PowerShift Charger, when paired with the GM Energy Vehicle-to-Home Enablement Kit, lets your Silverado EV power your home during a blackout when properly equipped. Anyone who lived through the last big Nor’easter knows how valuable that backup power can be. Your truck becomes a quiet financial advisor and a generator in one.

Capability That Earns Its Keep

A penny saved is great, and a truck that works hard is even better. The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV brings the muscle you expect from the Silverado name.

You get up to 12,500 lbs. of max available towing, so the boat, the camper, and the landscaping trailer are all covered. Max available horsepower reaches 760 with Wide Open Watts, and max available torque hits 775 lb.-ft. With Wide Open Watts in Sport Mode, this EV truck launches from 0 to 60 in under 4.5 seconds. That is sports-car quick, in a full-size pickup.

The Dual Motor 4WD system delivers nearly instantaneous torque to all four wheels at the same time, giving you extra traction when winter weather rolls into South Jersey. Every model comes with four-wheel drive as standard, because the Chevrolet Silverado EV is 100% a Chevy truck through and through.

Smart Tech That Pays Attention So You Do Not Have To

Step inside and you are greeted by a 17.7-inch diagonal infotainment touch-screen display and an 11-inch diagonal Driver Information Center, both standard. An available 14-inch diagonal Head-Up Display keeps your eyes on the road. Google built-in makes the cabin feel familiar from the first drive.

The available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology lets you drive and tow hands-free on compatible roads, something no other competitor offers. Long highway drives to family upstate or business meetings in North Jersey suddenly feel a lot less tiring.

Chevy Safety Assist comes standard, packing Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam. Confidence with every mile means less stress on the daily commute.

A Bed That Works as Hard as You Do

The Chevrolet Silverado EV brings real truck functionality. The available Multi-Flex Midgate with pass-through and available Multi-Flex Tailgate let you reconfigure the cargo area into six different setups. You can fit items up to 10 ft. 10 in. in length, which means lumber, ladders, kayaks, and camping gear all come along for the ride.

Available offboard power gives you up to 11 outlets and up to 10.2 kW of power. You can run power tools at the job site, lights at the campground, or even keep the fridge running at a tailgate. The 10.7 cu. ft. eTrunk up front gives you extra secure storage, with an available power-up and power-down hood.

Pick the Trim That Fits You

There are three Chevrolet Silverado EV trims, and we have them ready to show you on our Cherry Hill lot.

The Custom brings 22-inch machined face aluminum wheels, black bowties and badging, and a 5’11” bed with eight tie-downs. The LT steps things up with uplevel exterior LED lighting, including an illuminated front bowtie, 18″ High Gloss Black painted aluminum wheels, plus available Multi-Flex Tailgate and Multi-Flex Midgate. The Trail Boss is built for adventure with a 2-inch lift, 18-inch wheels wrapped in 35-inch all-terrain tires, exclusive Black and Artemis interior with red accent stitching, and standard four-wheel steer with Sidewinder diagonal steering.

For something extra patriotic, the Stars & Steel Special Edition includes American-flag-inspired stripes, 24″ high-gloss black wheels, and red Brembo performance brakes, available on RST in Summit White or Black.
