Driving Information
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency
Use the following tips to help maximize
energy efficiency and driving range.
The Energy Usage card available on the
Driver Information Center (DIC) estimates
the influence of the main factors impacting
vehicle range. It displays how energy is
being used for the current drive
as percentages of overall vehicle energy use.
See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level) 0129 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
0 130 and
Vehicle Status 0132.
Acceleration/Braking/Coasting
Avoid rapid accelerations and decelerations.
Driving range is maximized at 89 km/h
(55 mph) and less.
Use cruise control when appropriate.
Using the steering wheel paddle during
deceleration recovers more energy. See
Regenerative Braking 0206. Terrain and Vehicle Speed
Plan ahead for decelerations and coast
whenever possible. Do not rush to traffic
signals. Do not shift to N (Neutral) to coast.
Higher speeds and grade changes use more
energy and can significantly reduce driving
range.
Climate Setting
Using the heat and air conditioning systems
decreases the energy available for electric
driving.
Optimal energy efficiency is achieved when
the heat, air conditioning, and fan are
turned off.
Use the heated seat features instead of
climate control system. Heating the seat
uses less energy than heating and cooling
the interior.
Use remote start to heat or cool the interior
when the vehicle is plugged in to maximize
the driving range by using electricity from
the electrical outlet.
In hot weather, avoid parking in direct
sunlight or use sunshades inside the vehicle.

Chevrolet Silverado EV Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-
16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
182 Driving and Operating
Keep the inside of the windows clean to
reduce fogging. Turn off the front defroster
and rear defogger when they are not
needed.
Avoid driving with the windows open at
highway speeds.
Use the battery gauge on the instrument
cluster to view the effect of climate control
settings on your estimated driving range.
SeeBattery Gauge (High Voltage) 0110.
Outside Temperature
In cold weather conditions, it is best to plug
in the vehicle overnight, then remote start
the vehicle.
Allow the vehicle to warm up for
20 minutes before driving.
If possible, use a level 2 (240 volt) high
power charge station for best results. This
allows the interior of the vehicle and high
voltage battery to warm to the optimal
temperature.
In colder temperatures, while these
efficiency tips will help, the driving range
will be lower due to higher energy usage
including energy spent heating the cabin.
Vehicle Charging/Maintenance
Charging
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully
charged, to maintain the battery
temperature ready for the next drive. This is
important when outside temperatures are
extremely hot or cold.
Maintenance
Always keep the tires properly inflated and
aligned.
Avoid unnecessary use of electrical
accessories. Power used for functions other
than propelling the vehicle will reduce
driving range.
Cargo Weight
The weight of excess cargo in the vehicle
affects efficiency and driving range. Avoid
carrying more than is needed.
Using a rooftop carrier will reduce efficiency
due to additional weight and drag.
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many forms and can
take your focus from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgment and do not let other
activities divert your attention away from the road. Many local governments have
enacted laws regarding driver distraction.
Become familiar with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving, keep your eyes
on the road, keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your attention on
driving.
.Do not use a phone in demanding driving
situations. Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary phone calls.
.Watch the road. Do not read, take notes,
or look up information on phones or
other electronic devices.
.Designate a front seat passenger to
handle potential distractions.
.Become familiar with vehicle features
before driving, such as programming
favorite radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat settings. Program
all trip information into any navigation
device prior to driving.
.Wait until the vehicle is parked to
retrieve items that have fallen to the
floor.
.Stop or park the vehicle to tend to
children.

Driving and Operating 183
.Keep pets in an appropriate carrier or
restraint.
.Avoid stressful conversations while
driving, whether with a passenger or on a
mobile phone.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the road too long or
too often could cause a crash resulting in
injury or death. Focus your attention on
driving.
Your vehicle may be equipped with features
that can help with hands-free use of the
infotainment system, navigation system,
and your mobile phone. For more
information, see Introduction0147 in the
Infotainment section, Voice Recognition
0 159, Bluetooth (Pairing and Using a Phone)
0 161 or
Bluetooth (Overview) 0160, and Steering
Wheel Controls 0149.
Defensive Driving
Defensive driving means to always expect
the unexpected. The first step in driving
defensively is to wear a seat belt. See Seat
Belts 052.
.Assume that other road users
(pedestrians, bicyclists, and other drivers)
are going to be careless and make
mistakes. Anticipate what they may do
and be ready.
.Allow enough following distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front
of you.
.Focus on the task of driving.
Impaired Driving
Death and injury associated with impaired
driving is a global tragedy.
{Warning
Drinking alcohol or taking drugs and then
driving is very dangerous. Your reflexes,
perceptions, attentiveness, and judgment
can be affected by even a small amount
of alcohol or drugs. You can have a
serious —or even fatal —collision if you
drive after drinking or taking drugs.
Do not drive while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs, or ride with a driver
who has been drinking or is impaired by (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
drugs. Find alternate transportation
home; or if you are with a group,
designate a driver who will remain sober.
Control of a Vehicle
Braking, steering, and accelerating are
important factors in helping to control a
vehicle while driving.
Braking
Braking action involves perception time and
reaction time. Deciding to push the brake
pedal is perception time. Actually doing it is
reaction time.
Average driver reaction time is about
three-quarters of a second. In that time, a
vehicle moving at 100 km/h (60 mph) travels
20 m (66 ft), which could be a lot of
distance in an emergency.
Helpful braking tips to keep in mind include:
.Keep enough distance between you and
the vehicle in front of you.
.Avoid needless heavy braking.
.Keep pace with traffic.

16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
184 Driving and Operating
Steering
Caution
To avoid damage to the steering system,
do not drive over curbs, parking barriers,
or similar objects at speeds greater than
3 km/h (1 mph). Use care when driving
over other objects such as lane dividers
and speed bumps. Damage caused by
misuse of the vehicle is not covered by
the vehicle warranty.
Electric Power Steering
The vehicle is equipped with an electric
power steering system, which reduces the
amount of effort needed to steer the
vehicle. It does not have power steering
fluid. Regular maintenance is not required.
If the power steering system overheats,
there will be a temporary reduced level of
steering assist until the system cools down.
For example, the system can overheat if the
steering wheel is held firmly for an
extended amount of time at the end of its
range of travel. The energy from the
additional power assist becomes heat.
Normal operation of the power steering
system will resume when the system
cools down.
If the power steering system malfunctions,
the power steering system will have no
steering assist and greater steering effort
may be required. See your dealer to resolve
the problem.
Curve Tips
.Reduce speed before entering a curve.
.Maintain a reasonable steady speed
through the curve.
.Wait until the vehicle is out of the curve
before accelerating gently into the
straightaway.
Steering in Emergencies
.There are some situations when steering
around a hazard may be more effective
than braking.
.Holding both sides of the steering wheel
allows you to turn 180 degrees without
removing a hand.
.The Antilock Brake System (ABS) allows
steering while braking.
Off-Road Recovery

16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
Driving and Operating 185
The vehicle's right wheels can drop off the
edge of a road onto the shoulder while
driving. Follow these tips:1. Ease off the accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the way, steer the
vehicle so that it straddles the edge of
the pavement.
2. Turn the steering wheel about one-eighth of a turn, until the right front
tire contacts the pavement edge.
3. Turn the steering wheel to go straight down the roadway.
Loss of Control
Skidding
There are three types of skids that
correspond to the vehicle's three control
systems:
.Braking Skid —wheels are not rolling.
.Steering or Cornering Skid —too much
speed or steering in a curve causes tires
to slip and lose cornering force.
.Acceleration Skid —too much throttle
causes the driving wheels to spin.
Antilock brakes help to avoid only the
braking skid. Defensive drivers avoid most skids by taking
reasonable care suited to existing conditions,
and by not exceeding those conditions. But
skids are always possible.
If the vehicle starts to skid, follow these
suggestions:
.Ease your foot off the accelerator pedal
and steer the way you want the vehicle
to go. The vehicle may straighten out,
but if it skids again from oversteer, be
ready to correct another skid if it occurs.
.Slow down and adjust your driving
according to weather conditions. Stopping
distance may be longer and vehicle
control may be affected when traction is
reduced by water, snow, ice, gravel,
or other material on the road. Learn to
recognize warning clues
—such as
enough water, ice, or packed snow on the
road to make a mirrored surface —and
slow down when you have any doubt.
.Try to avoid sudden steering, acceleration,
or braking, including reducing vehicle
speed by shifting to a lower gear. Any
sudden changes could cause the tires to
slide.
Off-Road Driving
Four-wheel-drive vehicles can be used for
off-road driving. Vehicles without four-wheel
drive and vehicles not equipped with All
Terrain (AT) or On-Off Road (OOR) tires must
not be driven off-road except on a level,
solid surface. For contact information about
the original equipment tires, see the
warranty manual.
One of the best ways for successful off-road
driving is to control the speed.
{Warning
When driving off-road, bouncing and
quick changes in direction can easily
throw you out of position. This could
cause you to lose control and crash. You
and your passengers should always wear
seat belts.
Off-Road Vehicle Features
If equipped, the following off-road features
may be available:
.Four-Wheel Steering: Provides the ability
to steer the vehicle with all four wheels,
reducing the turning diameter and
improving maneuverability of the vehicle.
See Four-Wheel Steering 0210.

16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
186 Driving and Operating
.Underbody Camera System: Provides a
view of the area underneath the vehicle
to avoid obstacles during off-roading
events. SeeSurround Vision System 0247.
Before Driving Your Vehicle Off-Road
Read all the information about
four-wheel-drive vehicles in this manual.
Know the local laws that apply to off-road
driving.
Have all necessary maintenance and service
work completed.
Charge the vehicle and check inflation
pressure in all tires, including the spare,
if equipped.
Loading the Vehicle for Off-Road Driving
Caution
Placing tall or oversized items near or
against the spoiler or the lamp above the
truck bed can result in vehicle damage.
To prevent vehicle damage, properly store
cargo in the truck bed away from the
spoiler and the lamp using the cargo
tie-downs.
{Warning
.Unsecured cargo on the load floor can
be tossed about when driving over
rough terrain. You or your passengers
can be struck by flying objects. Secure
the cargo properly.
.Keep cargo in the cargo area as far
forward and as low as possible. The
heaviest things should be on the floor,
forward of the rear axle.
.Heavy loads on the roof raise the
vehicle's center of gravity, making it
more likely to roll over. You can be
seriously or fatally injured if the
vehicle rolls over. Put heavy loads
inside the cargo area, not on the roof.
For more information about loading the
vehicle, see Vehicle Load Limits 0193 and
Tires 0344.
Environmental Concerns
Always use established trails, roads, and
areas that are reserved for public off-road
recreational driving. Obey all posted
regulations.
Do not damage shrubs, flowers, trees,
grasses, or disturb wildlife.
Driving on Hills
Driving safely on hills requires good
judgment and an understanding of what the
vehicle can and cannot do.
{Warning
Many hills are simply too steep for any
vehicle. Driving down hills can cause loss
of control. Driving across hills can cause a
rollover. You could be injured or killed.
Do not drive on steep hills.
Before driving on a hill, assess the
steepness, traction, and obstructions. If the
terrain ahead cannot be seen, get out of the
vehicle and walk the hill before driving
further.
When driving on hills:
.Use L (Low) mode and keep a firm grip on
the steering wheel.
.Maintain a slow speed.
{Warning
Driving to the top of a hill at high speed
can cause a crash. There could be a
drop-off, embankment, cliff, or even (Continued)

Driving and Operating 187
Warning (Continued)
another vehicle. You could be seriously
injured or killed. As you near the top of a
hill, slow down and stay alert.
.When possible, drive straight up or down
the hill.
.Slow down when approaching the top of
the hill.
.Use headlamps even during the day to
make the vehicle more visible.
.Never go downhill forward or backward
with the vehicle in N (Neutral). The brakes
could overheat and you could lose
control.
.When driving down a hill, keep the
vehicle headed straight down. Use L (Low)
mode to slow the vehicle and help keep
the vehicle under control.
{Warning
Do not coast downhill in N (Neutral) or
with the vehicle turned off. SeeHill and
Mountain Roads 0190 for tips on
maximizing regenerative braking and
minimizing the load on the brake system. (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Heavy braking when going down a hill
can cause your brakes to overheat and
fade. This could cause loss of control and
you or others could be injured or killed.
Apply the brakes lightly when descending
a hill and use a low mode to keep vehicle
speed under control.
.Avoid turns that take the vehicle across
the incline of the hill. Driving across an
incline puts more weight on the downhill
wheels, which could cause a downhill
slide or a rollover.
.Loose gravel, muddy spots, or even wet
grass can cause the tires to slip sideways,
downhill. If the vehicle slips sideways, it
can hit an object or a rut and potentially
roll over.
.Hidden obstacles can make the steepness
of the incline more severe. If a rock is
driven across with the uphill wheels, or if
the downhill wheels drop into a rut or
depression, the vehicle can tilt even more.
.If an incline must be driven across, and
the vehicle starts to slide, turn downhill.
This should help straighten out the
vehicle and prevent side slipping.
{Warning
Getting out of the vehicle on the
downhill side when stopped across an
incline is dangerous. If the vehicle rolls
over, you could be crushed or killed.
Always get out on the uphill side of the
vehicle and stay well clear of the
rollover path.
Driving in Mud, Sand, Snow, or Ice
Use L (Low) mode when driving in mud.
Keep the vehicle moving to avoid getting
stuck.
Traction changes when driving on sand. On
loose sand, such as on beaches or sand
dunes, the tires tend to sink into the sand.
This affects steering, accelerating, and
braking. Drive at a reduced speed and avoid
sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers.
Traction is reduced on hard-packed snow and
ice, and it is easy to lose control. Reduce
vehicle speed when driving on hard-packed
snow and ice.

188 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Driving on frozen lakes, ponds, or rivers
can be dangerous. Ice conditions vary
greatly and the vehicle could fall through
the ice; you and your passengers could
drown. Drive your vehicle on safe
surfaces only.
Water Fording
Your vehicle is capable of driving across
water of varying depth, provided a ride
height is selected that gives enough ground
clearance. To adjust ride height, seeAir
Suspension 0211.
.Normal height ground clearance —Can
drive through water up to 66 cm
(26 in) deep
.Increased height ground clearance —Up
to 71 cm (28 in) deep
.Extract Mode (if equipped) —Up to
81 cm (32 in) deep
{Warning
Driving in water can cause loss of vehicle
control or vehicle damage. As water
depths increase, reduce the vehicle speed.
.Never drive through water deeper
than the driver’s side front gravel
guard behind the front tire.
.Be aware of submerged obstacles.
.Never open your doors while in water.
{Warning
Driving through flowing water can be
dangerous and have an unpredictable
effect on vehicle control. Even shallow
water can wash away the ground from
under your tires. Traction could be lost,
the vehicle could be swept downstream
or the vehicle could roll over. Do not
drive through rushing water.
Caution
Do not drive through standing water if it
is deep enough to cover the gravel
guards. Deep water can damage vehicle
parts.
Before driving in water:
.Determine the depth of the water.
.Enter the water slowly. Never exceed
5 km/h (3 mph) in water deeper than the
center of the front hubs.
.Always drive in the direction of the
current.
.Avoid oncoming vehicles, as they will
increase the water depth surrounding
your vehicle.

Driving and Operating 189
.After exiting the water, repeatedly and
gently apply the brakes to dry them off
and restore effectiveness.
If Something Goes Wrong
If during your off-road experience a warning
light or warning message displays on the
instrument cluster, or if the vehicle sustains
damage, stop driving as soon as it is safe to
do so. Correct the condition if possible
before continuing driving. If a warning light
or message appears, or if the condition
cannot be corrected, see your dealer. See
Vehicle Messages0135.
If the vehicle is operating with reduced
acceleration or reduced propulsion, stop
your off-road experience and drive slowly to
an accessible point for further assistance.
The vehicle should be taken to your dealer
for service as soon as possible. See
Propulsion Power Messages 0136 and
Propulsion Power is Limited Light 0115.
{Warning
A vehicle with driveline damage may roll
when shifted into P (Park). Always set
the Electric Parking Brake before
inspecting for driveline damage or when
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
securing the vehicle on a flatbed tow
truck. SeeElectric Parking Brake 0205
and
Transporting a Disabled Vehicle 0378.
After Driving Your Vehicle Off-Road
Be sure to switch out of Off-Road Mode or
Terrain Mode to return to normal driving.
See Driver Mode Control 0209.
Remove any brush or debris that has
collected on the underbody or chassis,
or under the hood. Clean the lens of the
underbody camera. These accumulations can
be a fire hazard.
The extreme conditions of off-road driving
require more frequent maintenance service.
See "Severe Conditions Requiring More
Frequent Maintenance" and "Additional
Required Services —Severe Service" on
Maintenance Schedule 0389.
After operation in mud or sand, have the
brake linings cleaned and checked. These
substances can cause glazing and uneven
braking. Check the body structure, driveline, steering,
suspension, wheels, tires, and other vehicle
systems for damage, or have these
inspections done by your dealer.
{Warning
Lifting a vehicle and getting under it to
do maintenance or repairs is dangerous
without the appropriate safety equipment
and training. If a jack is provided with
the vehicle, it is designed only for
changing a flat tire. If it is used for
anything else, you or others could be
badly injured or killed if the vehicle slips
off the jack. If a jack is provided with the
vehicle, only use it for changing a
flat tire.
Driving on Wet Roads
Rain and wet roads can reduce vehicle
