- about $0.02/km
- Energy use
- 17.8 kWh/100 km combined
Assumptions
- Electricity-rate assumption
- $0.12/kWh

- Source
- Manual electricity assumption
How calculated
17.8 kWh/100 km x $0.12/kWh / 100 = $0.02/km
Formula: kWh/100 km x electricity price per kWh / 100 = cost per km.
This estimates driving energy only, not total ownership cost. Actual fuel or electricity cost varies with prices, weather, driving, energy-source mix, and vehicle condition.
Vehicle charging
- NRCan-listed recharge time
- 7 hours
NRCan defines this as the estimated time to fully recharge the battery at 240 volts. The imported NRCan value does not specify charging power, connector, or a detailed starting and ending battery percentage. This is not a DC fast-charging estimate.
Daily driving and fast-charging reach
The rated electric range equals approximately 7.7 typical provincial commute days. This is a statistical comparison, not a prediction of how often an individual driver should charge.

Map distances
Range planning notice: The displayed reach starts with the vehicle’s listed rated range and is an estimate, not a guarantee. Real-world range can be reduced by driving speed and style, traffic, route and elevation, cold or hot weather, wind, rain or snow, cabin heating and air conditioning, passenger or cargo load, towing, tire type and pressure, battery age and condition, and starting charge. The circles show straight-line distance rather than driving distance; roads, detours, charger availability and a safe arrival reserve can further reduce how far you should plan to travel. Confirm your route, conditions, remaining charge and charging options before departure. Charging-station availability is not real-time.

What Transport Canada reports
Issue: Over time, corrosion could cause the secondary hood latch to stick in the open position. If this happens and the primary hood latch doesn't engage or is released, the hood can open suddenly while driving. Note: This recall replaces 14456 (Transport Canada recall 2014-422). Vehicles repaired under that recall also require this repair. Safety Risk: A hood that opens suddenly while driving can block the driver's view and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: General Motors will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the hood striker assembly and hood latch assembly.

What Transport Canada reports
On certain vehicles, the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM), which controls airbag and pretensioner deployment, contains a software defect which may prevent the deployment of frontal airbags and pretensioners in certain circumstances. Failure of frontal airbags and seatbelt pretensioners to deploy in a crash (when warranted) could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will reflash the SDM with new software. In vehicles with any previous deployment events recorded in the SDM, the dealers will replace the existing SDM with a new SDM containing the latest software. Note: This recall affects 2014-2017 model year Sierra LD/Silverado LD models and 2015-2016 model year Sierra HD/Silverado HD model vehicles.

Electric Driver has not yet independently verified the physical charging inlet for this exact model year and configuration.
Ratings and recall records are provided for research and comparison. A rating does not guarantee protection in every crash, and a model-level recall match does not confirm whether a specific VIN is affected.
