Something special down the desert outside Las Vegas this weekend: Two EVs take Mint 400 for the first time. Since the Mint 400 was released in 1969, the vehicle in the teenage race has been underlined by dead dies. The spectator and the race participants are used to smell the fuel racing in the air because of all the V8-motivated trucks in the 11 Volkswagen Classes to jump, dressing, and go to bed dry lake. That’s all replaced in 2024 when group pals enters Rivian R1t and Mint Advicer Matt Marterli creates EV production class. This year, Chevrolet entered the game and entered the concept of the Silverado EV ZR2 race concept, the modified version of the truck. The concepts are chevy prepared to start the year 2026 Silverado OV Boss, the first EV orientation variants for the first time, this summer. When Rivian many stock trucks are stored for 35-inch Bfgoodrich tires, Silvero EVs get many special parts. The longer control arm is taken from the Hummer EV to allow 13 inches travel. The air suspension contains dual-coil springs in front – with a rate of spring 1,600 pounds per inches – and single water on the back. This should not support the weight very well and sitting in “only” 978 pounds / inches. Hey, it is what happens when the truck weight is almost 10,000 pounds. File Credit: Matt Kalian / Matt 400 Springs Springs is high and Ban Biro BFGoodrich 37 inches means 15 inches of weak silverado truck. However, the truck is very large for me to estimate only 11 or 12 inches. This is a proportional strength. Also taken from hummer is the tri-motorcycle system, with two motors on the back and one in front. Chevrolet says they all return 1,100 horsepower and 10,500 pound-feet. Don’t get rid of the torque number. Chevrolet tell us about the wheel torque, which is not the steps that are usually used to talk about torque. The company does not give up all the numbers to do math, but it is safe to say the motorcycle generates more than 1,000 pounds. Still useless. Chevy does not change the 205 kWh battery. In a reasonable street truck for 440 miles, the theory is sufficient for the race of all four loops in Mint 400. However, air pressure, and dirt. Demetrio team, group manager for road performances in Chevrolet, said in a limited test, truck on average .5 miles / kwh in dirt. But they don’t know how to battery and drive drives will react to hard Deserted Desert racing. There isn’t enough squares on the chance to see Rivian and Chevy Chevy Silvertrado ev Square in the Mint disturbed with technical. Although both vehicles do race, they are in different classes. Rivians are transported in the EV production class; Chevrolet, as the current vehicle is not prepared for the people, in the classroom open. And every truck is in one’s class. What is worse, Rivian R1t should make two rotating courses 73 miles, Chevrolet only one lap. Generally for production vehicles fewer than big trophies truck, but I hope two trucks will be the Duke for both loops to try the efficiency of two. When I asked Marterli about the difference, “Rivian had fled and took a little while ago. We didn’t want to flee to the stock of Silverado EV Chevrolet scored me for the weekend drive. The first pit is in the 21 mile race, and the beginning of the course is very fast. The team get down on the lake bed, over some parts of anyone and tackle some wats. At the time I came to the first pit, I have missed the truck. The second area is a quick chase to chase vehicles, but Chevy only has to pass 5 miles of courses courses. We found a place for parkings just to see Silverado did not expand the silogged in the corner of the grave in the dust. The trucks crossed the finish line with a state of 40% of the cost. Mean Average .6 miles / kWh – better than this team is hoping. This takes a team of 2 hours and 10 minutes to complete the course, allowing an average speed of about 34 miles per hour. Not very riddle for a large Ol truck. Two driver chadies and Mark Stiowelow drivers with good spirits. “We just explode,” stielow says no problem. ” For Rivian, it credits the Mint 146 image: Emme Hall after leaving Chevy, Imitate the Electrifi American charging to check the Rivian check. Yes, the Rivian has to fill the 14 KWH battery to make two lap and mesh is a 350 KW charger only only miles from racing courses. The team just has to be in and out of the course at the same point. I arrived at a controlled chaos. R1T blows the spring spring in the 50 or more mile race. The team is busy to fix when the truck is filled. The Nick Paris said that I arrived at the filling station with 20% to be filled, putting the same efficiency of 1 .6 Mils / KWH is a heavier silverado. He claims to have lead legs, hitting 110 miles per hour in dry dryer. “We see Chevy in front of us,” the Rieser’s co-driver said. “And we say ‘Come’ and Zoooop!” Rivian makes the pass and the race there. Filled up to 90%, Rivia left on the second loop. The vehicle blows to the front of the front, but only 15 minutes. The Rivian team came in the finished line with a 10% off of 10% and even pushing the truck up to 128 miles away at the lake in the lake .6 Mils / KWH. With a difficult charge to get the average speed, but I will put it in a tad more slowly than Chevrolet. Hall Hall is, after all, professional truck drivers. The Rivian team is only as a bunch of beautiful jewelry. Regardless, because two trucks are done, both are considered the winner of the class and will take the first place. Where is Ford, Jeep, Tesla? When the battery density and infrastructure of the charging, will not be competitive with the race car and truck, there is always room to enter the charger speed, and the power resistant. Ford performance – when is yo’all typed the lightning? Hey Jeep, How about it in the future? Heck, I will even choose Elon come to CybertReck. GMC can throw hummer, maybe porcece may be a field in the Cross Taycan tourism. I helped Volkswagen get id4 to the finish line in the steel in Mexico in the past 1000 several years ago, so as well as a small man. Imagine demonstrated from all the vehicles on the vehicle on the support of electrical reget.
