Overview

General Motors initially announced that the Blazer EV would be available in 1LT, 2LT, RS, and SS trim levels. The base 1LT trim was cancelled when the RS trim was released in August 2023. The Blazer SS becomes the first electric Chevrolet to bear the SS badge, and the variant is rated at 615 hp (624 PS; 459 kW) and 650 lb⋅ft (881 N⋅m; 89.9 kg⋅m) of torque. The Blazer EV takes inspiration from Chevrolet's sports cars for the exterior design. It features full LED exterior lighting with choreographed lighting sequence feature on the RS and SS models, motorsport-inspired extractor vents on front fenders and T-shaped LED taillights. The interior carries on the sports car inspired theme from the exterior, particularly on the RS and SS models. There is an 11-inch Driver Information Center and a 17.7-inch infotainment touchscreen display (it is the first vehicle to use General Motors Ultifi system). A traditional vehicle starter button is omitted, instead the driver pushes the brake pedal and the car is automatically placed into drive gear. Chevrolet decided to ditch Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for a Google built-in software, citing reasons including driver safety and the intent to eliminate driving distractions. Other features include Chevy Safety Assist safety suite, the option of Super Cruise hands-free advanced driving assistant feature and regenerative braking includes one-pedal driving mode. The Blazer EV has a fast-charging capability that allows for approximately 78 mi (126 km) of charge in 10 minutes. A "Wide Open Watts" (WOW) mode allows the Blazer SS to reach 60 mph (97 km/h) in less than four seconds. A 9C1 police pursuit vehicle (PPV) model is based on the SS trim. It has exterior, interior, technology and powertrain modifications for police use. It is powered
