Technologies for today and tomorrow
With the RST model, when a driver approaches the vehicle with an enabled cell phone or key fob, a lighting animation will greet them. Once inside the vehicle, a 3D animation appears on the 17" diagonal LCD infotainment screen, which pairs with the 11" diagonal driver instrument display. Additionally, the driver head-up display offers a field of view over 14". With handsfree start, the vehicle will automatically turn on after the driver enters the vehicle with an enabling device.
The Silverado EV will also be the first to have Ultifi, a Linux-based software platform that separates the vehicle's software from its hardware to allow for quick and frequent software updates. Developed in-house at GM, the software enables to vehicles to continue evolving over time.

Assembled with domestically and globally sourced parts, the Silverado EV will be manufactured at GM's Factory ZERO at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Center.
