2024 CHEVY BLAZER EV

One of the hottest electric SUVs on the market right now is the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV. With great range, attractive exterior and interior styling, safety features galore, and a nice starting MSRP, there aren't many reasons not to buy this model in 2024. Of course, we will cover everything there is to know about the Chevy Blazer EV in this article, which you can use to make a final decision. Without further ado, let's dive right in!

What's New for 2024? 

The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV is brand new this year, meaning everything you see and get will be the first of its kind. Of course, the gas-powered Blazer shares many design similarities, but you have a wholly reimagined skeleton with this electric model using a battery only. Specifically, the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV utilizes a standard 85 kWh, 10-module GM Ultium battery or the 105 kWh pack. With the standard 85 kWh battery, you see ~279 miles per charge, while the 105 kWh battery pack boasts up to 324. This SUV is fast, goes the distance, and produces zero emissions.

Note: The lineup comprises three trims: LT, RS, and the performance-oriented SS-notably, the entry-level 1LT trim, which was released before the official launch.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

Looking inside the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV, this model offers five-person seating and includes:

  • Standard synthetic leather upholstery.
  • Heated and ventilated front seats.
  • A heated steering wheel.
  • Other upgradeable comforts. 

One reason so many drivers love this nameplate is its sleek interior styling and general spaciousness for every person inside. The interior dimensions are as follows:

  • Front/Rear Head Room: 39.8"/38.6"
  • Front/Rear Leg Room: 41"/39.6"

Moreover, your cargo dimensions will be:

  • Cargo Space Behind Second-Row Seats: 30.5 cubic feet

Overall, this model comfortably accommodates plenty of guests and items and does so in style. For an SUV, it has great specs and measurements compared to others in its class.

2024 Chevy Blazer EV Exterior

Heading outside the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV, the exterior design is aerodynamic and exciting within the electric space. Chevrolet has built upon its existing Blazer, with the EV being more sleek across its front, side, and rear. You have an almost recessed front end, with striking LED headlamps that frame the grille. Your frame/body on the Chevy Blazer EV is also rounded, moving effortlessly between all four doors and your trunk.

The SS trim, in particular, is your best bet for a sporty Blazer EV.

EV Motor, Performance, and Power

One of the most exciting parts of the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV is its battery and motors. For this newest Chevrolet release, you will see two battery types: a standard 85 kWh, 10-module GM Ultium battery, or the 105 kWh pack. You'll have dual motors in AWD models and single motors in RWD.

Your range depends on battery type and configuration, between 279 and 324 miles per full charge. In addition, the horsepower on this SUV is impressive, being between 288 and 557 ponies. To break this down:

  • All-wheel drive models feature two electric motors generating 288 horsepower
  • The rear-wheel drive RS variant boasts 340 horsepower
  • The SS model delivers a staggering 557 horsepower

The high-power SS Chevy Blazer EV is your fastest option, having 557 horsepower, 648 pound-feet of torque, and a 0-60 MPH test time of under four seconds.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

You have quite a bit that comes standard for the safety and driver-assistance features included in the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV. For example, this SUV will offer automated emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and parking assist in entry-level trims.

You can also choose to upgrade to the advanced Super Cruise hands-free driving system, which improves convenience and safety while driving on the highway. There will be plenty to keep you and your passengers safe inside this electric nameplate for 2024.

Range, Charging, and Battery Life

Regarding the range, charging, and battery life of the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV, you see competitive specs across all three trims. For instance, this year's release offers between 279 and 324 miles per full charge, with this being the breakdown by configuration:

  • 279 miles (449 km) - LT AWD & RS AWD
  • 324 miles (521 km) - RS RWD)

Your batteries are as follows: 

  • 85 kWh - AWD
  • 102 kWh - RWD

For charging your EV, Chevy offers Level 1 chargers as standard, Level 2 charging stations as an upgrade, and the ability for its drivers to hook up to a Level 3 station via an adapter cable. You can expect this SUV to charge in as little as 9.5 to 11 hours with a Level 2 220-volt setup and ~24 hours at Level 1 (120-volt).

The Chevy Blazer EV also supports DC fast charging, which can add approximately 78 miles of range in just 10 minutes.

The battery lifespan/warranty is expected to be around eight years/100,000 miles, which Chevrolet's warranty period covers.

Infotainment and Connectivity

Moving into the infotainment and connectivity category, the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV boasts many standard and premium features. For example, this tech includes a large 17.7-inch display powered by GM's latest software with Google Built-In. You also have access to popular apps such as Spotify and Google Maps and intuitive navigation with range estimation and charging station suggestions along the route.

Is the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV Right For You?

If you're wondering whether a 2024 Chevy Blazer EV is right for you and your driving habits, there are things to consider. First, are you a current EV driver, or would this be entirely new for you? Many drivers are switching from gas to battery-powered driving, so you would be making a forward-thinking choice by doing this. You also want to consider the range of this vehicle, being between 279 and 324 miles per charge.

Perhaps upgrading to an RS or SS is the best option for people with range anxiety who need more than 300 miles per charge. Even then, with the Level 2 or 3 charging stations, you won't have to wait days for your SUV to charge back to 80-100 percent. Budgeting for this electric SUV is also essential, with the entry LT trim being $48,800. The SS is expected to be the most expensive model in the family, which is another detail to consider if you plan to wait for it.

Whatever the case, the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV is the perfect choice if you're ready to swap the gas station for an at-home or public charger.
