Let it be known that certain automakers know how to throw a party. Vegas protocols applied.

I am not a pickup truck customer so view what I say through that filter. Stylistically, I prefer the Silverado EV just slightly over the Lightning, main issue being that Lightning is boxier and I’m not a fan of boxy vehicles. I prefer both to Rivian because the Rivian headlights look cartoonish to me. From a functionality standpoint I give a wider margin to the Silverado over the Lightening, primarily because of the tailgate functionality and the midgate. Rivian has some different functionality and is more of a lifestyle truck, so if I was to buy a truck, particularly an EV truck, I’d likely buy a Rivian and just get over the cartoonish headlamps. That’s a big if.
