2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV LT: Roslyn Buyers Guide
Quick Answer: The 2026 Silverado EV LT
LT is the middle trim and the most configurable one in the 2026 Silverado EV lineup, starting at $60,900 MSRP before the $2,595 destination charge. It's the only trim offering a genuine choice of all three battery packs — Standard, Extended, or Max Range — with GM-estimated range running from roughly 283 miles up to 478 miles depending on the pack, and output climbing to 645 hp and 765 lb-ft on the higher-output configuration. Multi-Flex Midgate and Multi-Flex Tailgate come standard, along with dual-motor all-wheel drive across the board. East Hills Chevrolet of Roslyn has it in stock now.
What the LT actually is
LT sits between Custom and Trail Boss, but calling it a "middle trim" undersells what actually changes here. Unlike Custom, which is locked to the Standard Range battery, LT is the one trim in the lineup where a buyer picks the battery pack independently of everything else — Standard Range at the base price, Extended Range for roughly $69,100 before destination, or Max Range for roughly $90,200 before destination. That range of choice means an LT shopper can dial in exactly how much range and output they're paying for, rather than accepting whatever a single fixed configuration offers. Multi-Flex Midgate and Multi-Flex Tailgate come standard on LT, a genuine functional upgrade over Custom's simpler bed setup, along with 18-inch high-gloss black wheels and uplevel LED lighting.
Output scales with the battery choice: the higher-output LT configuration is rated 645 hp and 765 lb-ft, a real step up from Custom's 490 hp, while GM-estimated range spans from around 283 miles on the Standard Range pack up through 410 to 424 miles on Extended Range and up to 478 miles on Max Range. Every LT still rides on dual-motor all-wheel drive as standard equipment — there's no lower-output single-motor version to choose instead.
Where an LT makes sense around Roslyn
Northern Boulevard traffic and the Long Island Expressway stretch most Roslyn commutes run don't demand the top output configuration, but the battery choice matters more here than the horsepower number does. A buyer who mostly stays local and charges at home overnight can reasonably stick with the Standard Range pack and save real money versus Extended or Max Range; a buyer planning regular trips further out on Long Island, or one who wants a real cushion against what a Nassau County winter does to EV range, has a genuine reason to step up. The Multi-Flex Tailgate is worth a look in person rather than just reading the spec sheet — it changes how the bed functions for hauling wider or bulkier items than a standard tailgate handles well, which matters for anyone using this truck for actual truck work rather than just commuting.

What East Hills Chevrolet of Roslyn's buyers say
"My sales guy Mike was terrific, explained the details of my new ev very well, very patient" (David G.) captures a pattern that shows up across a lot of this dealership's EV reviews — a buyer explaining an unfamiliar drivetrain patiently rather than rushing the sale.

Picked up a new Silverado yesterday and it was the best experience I've had at a dealership! Big thanks to Joe, Jason and Andy for taking care of me... they went above and beyond to ensure I got the best deal possible" (Chris G.).

Frequently asked questions
Which battery should I choose on the LT?
It depends on how the truck gets used. Standard Range covers typical Roslyn commuting and errands at the lowest price; Extended Range adds meaningful cushion for longer trips or winter range loss; Max Range is worth it mainly for buyers who tow regularly or want the longest possible range regardless of cost. There's no wrong answer here, just a genuine trade-off between price and range.
What's the horsepower difference between LT configurations?
The higher-output LT configuration is rated 645 hp and 765 lb-ft. Chevrolet hasn't broken out a separate figure for every individual battery-and-output combination on LT, so a buyer weighing a specific configuration should confirm the exact output with East Hills Chevrolet of Roslyn before assuming every LT makes the same power.
Does the LT get the Multi-Flex Tailgate?
Yes, standard — both the Multi-Flex Midgate and Multi-Flex Tailgate come standard on LT, a step up from Custom's simpler bed setup. Trail Boss, one trim up, keeps the same Multi-Flex hardware.
Can I charge an LT at a Tesla Supercharger?
Yes, with GM's separate NACS DC adapter. The 2026 Silverado EV, LT included, ships with a CCS port rather than a native NACS plug, so Supercharger access needs that adapter rather than a direct connection.
