General Motors is expanding the Chevy Blazer nameplate with an all-new, all-electric variant dubbed the Chevy Blazer EV. Launching in 2023 for the 2024 model year, the new Chevy Blazer EV is set to roll off the line this summer, but before it does, a few early examples have been spotted out in public. That includes this particular 2024 Chevy Blazer EV spotted charging up in Michigan.
Recently posted to social media by Twitter user @RegularPerson12, the pictures show what appears to be either the 1LT or 2LT trim level (they look identical) plugged into an Electrify America charger. The charging station glows green, reflecting off the black paint of the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV.
The 1LT and 2LT are offered as the first two trim levels in the 2024 Chevy Blazer lineup, and are practically identical in terms of exterior styling. Both incorporate a geometric grille and slim upper lighting elements, plus a monochromatic exterior paint scheme.
A total of trim levels will be offered, including 1LT, 2LT, RS, and SS. The 2LT and RS will be first two trim levels produced, both of which are equipped as standard with front-wheel drive, offering all-wheel drive as optional. The RS will also be available in rear-wheel drive. The entry-level 1LT will launch early next year, while the range-topping SS will launch in the fall.

Was Mary driving?
When will the ICE version of the Blazer be put out to pasture, or will there be a refreshed ICE version coming?
Chevrolet is on a dual-path, All-new ICE versions of Blazer and Equinox will introduced and sold alongside the EV versions.
Hope it is a good vehicle because a lot of GM’s future models will be variations of this one. For that matter, so is at least one competitor. Honda is betting its first big foray into EVs based on, I think, the BEV3 platform.
Kinda glad the manufacturers aren’t making EVs freakish looking like they did with the first hybrids.
The Honda Prologue will be based on the Cadillac Lyriq using the same technology, and assembled on the same line at the Tennessee plant by GM workers.
If you can’t beat GM, let GM build it for you!
The Honda Prologue will not be built in TN. It will be built at the same facility as the Blazer EV.
The Acura ZDX will be built in TN.
You are correct. I always get annoyed when people dislike posts presenting accurate factual information. I don’t understand what there is to dislike, you’re just stating the facts.
It will be assembled at the same EV plant as the Chevy Equinox EV, so it probably share technology. But it is larger and sportier than the Equinox.
As with the Equinox, Chevy will also sell the gas engine version of the Blazer for a few more years.
I like it. Probably an RS?
Seems to be the one to get. Range and style.
Same size battery pack as the Lyriq? (102KW?)
These are supposed to be “available starting summer 2023”, which is now. They haven’t released the order guide or put a build your own configurator on the website yet, which makes me skeptical. I’m eager to find out the full list of what will be standard and optional.
I agree that the availability situation requires a dose of realism. Dealers have put in their orders for demo models, and it appears the very first RS trim Blazers for private buyers will be made in August. So, in the most technical sense, Blazer EV will be available in summer of 2024. But widespread availability and delivery of large numbers is probably off in the later part of 2024. GM is battery constrained right now and won’t have all of their Ultium factories at full production levels for a few years. In the meantime, they will have to spread the available batteries between Lyriq, Hummer, Brightdrop, Silverado, Sierra, Blazer, Equinox, Prologue, and ZDX. That’s spreading it thin.
Do these cars come with a charger? How much does it cost to recharge a @1% battery left?
It depends on the size of the battery and what your utility charges you per kilowatt. A Bolt which has a 66 kilowatt battery and my cost per kilowatt during the summer is .12, so a completely depleted battery would cost $7.92.
66 x .12 = $7.92.
ALL EVs come with a charger. You may want to buy an EVSE though, which will allow you to plug the charger in at home.
It can cost as little as nothing to charge it. It could cost as much as $60 to charge it. Depends on the rate where you are plugging in. My rate at home is $0.08 per kWh. My rate at work is free. Some DC fast chargers bill an hourly rate of $20, so if you can charge up in an hour you pay $20.
SEND IT BACK TO MEXICO
The Dealer Inventories are Full of ICE that aren’t selling as fast as they expected, so adding another Line of same model only Electric says “We’re going to make our customers Like EV’s one way or another. Liberal Asinine thought process,
