America’s best-selling vehicle goes electric and blows minds. The line for one is long, though. The battle of the truck brands will revive when Chevrolet introduces the Silverado EV in fall 2023. Also, at the higher end of this market, the Rivian R1T is an EV pickup truck worth a look.
There is widespread consen-sus that the future, at least when it comes to what we drive, is electric. Carmakers have been falling all over each other with promised dates by which some or all of their offerings will be electric, or at least electrified in some way. But when is that future for you?

They’re neither tiny nor dizzyingly expensive, and they might tip the scales for some to try electric.
