A Lot to Love: Chevy Blazer EV

The 2024 Blazer EV was no slouch—with up to 340 horsepower and a 0–60 time of just six seconds, it already brought plenty of excitement to the table. But the 2025 Blazer EV SS takes that energy and dials it up to eleven. This new top-tier trim features a dual-motor electric powertrain with standard all-wheel drive and a jaw-dropping output of 595 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque. That’s muscle that rivals the likes of the Mach-E GT and Model Y Performance, especially with a 0–60 sprint that clocks in around 3.4 seconds.

To access that kind of launch, you’ll need to activate Wide Open Watts (WOW) Mode, Chevy’s performance-boosting system that recalibrates everything from cooling to power delivery to extract the full potential of the motors. It’s not just about going fast, though—the SS trim gets Brembo brakes, a retuned chassis, a distinctive front fascia, and striking 22-inch wheels to match its aggressive character.

And it’s not just the SS getting a glow-up. The LT and RS trims have both been tuned for more power this year. Rear-wheel drive models now churn out 365 horsepower—up from last year’s 340—while the all-wheel drive variant climbs to 300 horsepower with 355 lb-ft of torque. Chevy even added a front-wheel drive version to the mix, giving drivers the rare option to choose between FWD, RWD, and AWD across a single model line. Whether you’re prioritizing traction, handling, or performance, there’s a Blazer EV that fits.

The 2025 Blazer EV doesn’t just adapt to different driving needs—it embraces them. In addition to a wide range of trims and drivetrains, Chevy offers a variety of packages to fine-tune the experience even further.

The Comfort and Convenience Package is perfect for everyday commuters and road trip warriors alike. It adds heated, eight-way power seats wrapped in upscale Evotex material, a heated steering wheel, and wireless phone charging. Chevy even thought to include a hands-free power liftgate (AutoSense) and Hitch Guidance with Hitch View—small touches that make a big difference when your hands are full or you’re towing.

For a more striking visual presence, check out the Midnight/Sport Edition, available on the LT with eAWD. It dresses the Blazer in 19-inch black wheels, high-gloss black roof rails, blacked-out bowties, and stealthy badging—inside and out, it leans into a bolder, more athletic aesthetic.

On the tech front, the optional Driver Confidence Package transforms the Blazer EV into a rolling showcase of advanced safety. Adaptive Cruise Control, Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, a Heads-Up Display, and a rear camera mirror bring a new level of awareness to your drive. And if you’re ready to take your hands off the wheel entirely, GM’s Super Cruise technology is available. One of the most refined hands-free systems in the industry, Super Cruise works across 750,000 miles of mapped roads in North America and continues to expand its reach. It’s not just smart—it’s reassuringly reliable. Add the Super Cruise Package and you’ll also get Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist, which handles tight parking spots without breaking a sweat.

The Blazer has always been a trendsetter. Back in the day, it helped redefine what an SUV could be by introducing features that made driving not just practical but genuinely enjoyable. The 2025 version, though electric and all-new, carries that legacy forward.

Step inside, and your eyes are immediately drawn to a sweeping 17.7-inch infotainment touchscreen flanked by an 11-inch digital Driver Information Center—both standard on every trim. No extra package needed. The system runs on GM’s latest software, with Google built-in for seamless access to Maps, Assistant, and the Play Store. Need directions? “Hey Google” has you covered. Want to send a message or check your calendar? It’s all hands-free.

But Chevy didn’t forget that not everything needs to be digital. Instead of burying key functions in menus, the Blazer EV includes physical controls for climate and audio adjustments. It’s a thoughtful blend of new-school tech and old-school usability—no tapping through three screens just to turn down the heat.

Classified as a two-row SUV, the Blazer EV might surprise you with just how roomy it feels. It’s nearly the size of a Suburban—only three inches shorter—yet more maneuverable and efficient. Passengers will appreciate the generous legroom and headroom, while drivers will love the practicality of its layout.

And when it comes to hauling gear? You’ve got up to 59.1 cubic feet of cargo space at your disposal. Whether you’re packing up for a weekend getaway or hauling the daily essentials, the Blazer EV has you covered with ease.
