Dirtbox turns Silverado EV Midgate into an extra room

Dirtbox has introduced the EV Pass-Through Canopy Camper for the Chevrolet Silverado EV and GMC Sierra EV, priced at $12,999. With the Midgate open, it creates a continuous living space of nearly 3.35 meters, merging the cabin and cargo bed. The upper level remains a separate sleeping area. The module sits on an aluminum frame and includes a memory foam mattress, insulated roof, ventilation, LED lighting, and USB-A, USB-C, and 12V outlets. The manufacturer has not disclosed the weight of the module, which is critical for an electric pickup, as every kilogram reduces payload and range.
