Chevrolet is about to go racing in an electric off-roader, but not one we can buy, yet. The vehicle is the Chevrolet Silverado EV ZR2 concept. It gives Chevy’s electric pickup the full off-road treatment, just in time to send it into the desert.
Chad Hall will take the truck to the Mint 400 in Las Vegas, competing in the Open Production EV class at the race.

The concept pickup isn’t ready for production yet, but the electric ZR2 isn’t far off. Chevrolet says the concept uses “98% GM production parts.”
The parts list includes a front and rear lift with off-road spring tuning and Multimatic’s adaptive DSSV dampers. The electric truck will get locking differentials at both ends and underbody skid protection to keep the battery and motors safe.
Since this is a concept truck, it gets some extra power, too. The three-motor system makes 1,100 horsepower, and it has GM’s semi-misleading 11,500 pound-feet of torque. No matter how you measure, this is plenty to turn the 37-inch BFGoodrich KM3 Mud-Terrain tires on even the toughest terrain.
