DETROIT – This week, Chevrolet revealed the all-electric 2024 Blazer EV. This expansion of the brand’s growing electric vehicle portfolio makes EV ownership more accessible and drives Chevy into the heart of the growing midsize electric crossover segment.
Multiple distinct trims, multiple range options — Including an available GM-estimated range of up to 320 miles on a full charge — and available front-, rear- and all-wheel-drive configurations offer customers more choices, and a seamless EV experience designed to complement virtually every lifestyle.
Those choices include available 1LT, 2LT, RS, and Chevy’s first-ever electric SS performance model, along with a pursuit-rated Police Pursuit Vehicle (PPV) model for police fleet applications.
“The 2024 Blazer EV sets a new tone for electric SUVs, with options and intuitive technologies that help position Chevy for leadership in one of the fastest-growing EV segments,” said Scott Bell, vice president of Chevrolet. “Along with the all-new Silverado EV and Equinox EV coming next year, we are making great strides in offering more choices for zero tailpipe-emissions vehicles — choices that make switching to an EV easier than ever.”
The Blazer EV is based on GM’s innovative Ultium Platform, with athletic styling that elevates the design established in 2018 by the gas-powered Chevrolet Blazer, and performance cues inspired by the Camaro and Corvette.
The Blazer EV SS is designed to deliver the same legendary performance as the original Super Sport. With an exclusive performance AWD propulsion system, it produces up to 557 horsepower and 648 lb-ft of torque. And with WOW (Wide Open Watts) mode, it can sprint from 0-60 in under 4 seconds.
“The Blazer EV SS has the soul of a true sports car,” said Bell. “And while it represents the pinnacle of performance for Chevy’s EV lineup, all models offer stirring capabilities that will surprise and delight true performance devotees.”
