I'm a fan of no longer being taken advantage of by oil companies who raise prices at will because they know there's no government regulation and gas is a necessity like toilet paper. They use any world event as an excuse to do it. Electricity prices aren't controlled by world events. If you have solar, you're essentially getting free charging.
It’s not actually cheaper when you consider the tax credit. So still a $7500+ difference. Or about the same difference as ICE compact and midsize cars.
Wow so much bang for your buck with the SS trim! Model Y Performance and the Mach E GT will set you back over $80k after taxes. This one will definitely be a hot ticket.
Thanks for sharing, I do wish you could have transitioned to view each of the trims as you were talking about them. As this is a video and not a podcast. Take advantage of those stunning visuals and design work put in on this vehicle!
@@streetmoney21 I agree. At the moment, even with government incentives, an electric car doesn’t make sense for me. Spend an extra $20,000 to save $10,000 in gas and maintenance. My other issues is who is going to want my 10 yr old electric car? The resale value will be nearly zero.
@@hillsje resale on 10 year old tesla model S are almost exactly where you would expect them to be if they were a $100k ICE car, about 25% of original inflation-adjusted price.
@@robgeach8105 that’s because it’s a low volume production car with a fancy name attached and inflation is out of control. If I were to buy a Mach-E today, no one is going to pay big bucks for a 10 yr old Ford with rundown battery packs. So, essentially it will be worthless.
@@hillsjethe world will smile and happily spend $13k for a 10 year old mach-e that gets 240 miles per charge in 2032. if battery replacement tech is cheaper by then they might just spend an extra $2k on a battery swap and get back to 300+ miles. nobody cares about brand name or production volume when talking about 10 year old cars.
Looks great for the high end version, will have to see what the lower priced models look like. While I can afford it, I'm asking myself, how big is the market for a non luxury vehicle that starts at 45K and tops out at 66K. While it's competitive with what's out there in EVs now, those are not mass market prices and the Blazer has always been a mass market vehicle. Not sure how much of the existing EV tax credit GM has used up with the Bolt, but I believe that Biden was unable to get his new legislation passed that would have provided more EV tax credits than allowed under the existing program, so that money will run out eventually.
Well, a RWD Blazer model (I assumed GM would save this for Cadillac and the pickups EV models), offering the Blazer EV as a FWD, RWD, and AWD models and 3-different battery pack sizes, clearly, Chevy / GM are betting big on EVs, so, GM has 3-different EV motors (a powerful 255 kW EV motor for FWD, RWD or AWD positions, a 180-kW EV motor for FWD position, and a 62-kW EV motor for FWD/RWD/AWD assist motor, knowing the available EV motors, note, the GMC HUMMER EV pickup launch edition uses three 255 kW EV motors, 1-front and 2-at the rear, anyway), the Blazer SS EV is offered as an AWD model only guessing it offers a 180-kW EV motor for FWD position and a powerful 255 kW EV motor for a rear position, thus giving you that AWD capacity or basically the Cadillac Lyriq Luxury AWD model setup, now the base FWD only 1LT (guessing that’s a 180-kW EV motor for FWD position motor), the LT2 (guessing the same as the 1LT FWD, but the AWD version will most likely get a 180-kW EV motor for FWD position motor and a 62-kW EV motor for RWD assist motor for AWD), next the RS trim FWD (guessing that’s a powerful 255 kW EV FWD position motor), RS trim RWD (same as RWD Cadillac Lyriq a powerful 255 kW EV RWD position motor), the RS AWD trim is the interesting one (Chevy has several options, but I’m guessing a 62-kW EV motor for FWD assist motor and a powerful 255 kW EV RWD position motor for AWD or maybe some other combination, it feels like the the RS AWD will be the model to get if you don’t need or want the SS) and of course, the SS, which I already talked about, side note, did anyone notice Chevy / GM showed all available trims of the Blazer EV outside of maybe a ZL1 version, but to date the Cadillac Lyriq has only shown the Luxury trim RWD and AWD versions, could this be because Cadillac / GM want the halo/flagship upcoming Cadillac Celestiq to be shown first with these features and tech, I’m starting to think the Celestiq could be the first four-motor EV from GM, I was assuming it would be the Corvette EV, clearly they want Celestiq features/tech to trickle down to other Cadillac EV models, but the price you are hearing means it will have to come with the goods
I am 66, been a mechanic my whole life, still am. I am getting sick and tired of oil changes, spark plugs, exhaust issues and fuel prices, I own a 2014 Equinox and a 2014 Escalade. Being semi retired the EV is a better choice, they say these can last a million miles, same as my Peterbilt tractor. Personally I want the Lyric.
My wife asked me about that rear hatch opening when you approach it. What if you do NOT want it to open? I could not answer that, but maybe you can. That could be a serious issue for someone that is being followed. If I have that feature and can deactivate it, then it would never be used. Pushing a button like our 2020 Cadillac is fine for us. Tell GM to remove that feature.
The Chevy Blazer EV looks very nice. I'm a fan of futuristic technology things including EV stuff. They'll be alot of fun. They'll be like in the sci fi movies like Total Recall, Blade Runner, Cyberpunk, Demolition Man, Robocop, and Terminator. What if their will be Blazer EV, Equinox EV, and Silverado EV as Chevy EV police vehicles? Robocop will like to drive them.
Looks good, but in 12 months, when you can finally buy one, will it look fresh? The Lyriq looks dated after it's super long intro period. This was unveiled way too early.
The following all basically look the same to me: Chevy Blazer EV, ID4, BZ4X, Skoda Enyaq, Mach E. Say what you will about Tesla, you can recognize the design language even without badging.
I like it! Is it groundbreaking or edgy/cool? No! But it looks solid, comfortable and vaguely future forward... I'd snag one especially out here in western Canada!
Front headlight show reminds me of Kit from Knight Rider! Bring Your Own Charging Cable (BYOCC) You can get by with level 1 charging! Hello small businesses instal that Outdoor Power Outlet (OPO)Those electric car owners will take anything you give them!
Finally a design that GM can be proud of....and outshines the competitions.Too bad it took a BEV platform to do it, they should of offered a ICE version of this with a 6.2L V8..now that would be a true SS.
12 or 13 year old kids should be allowed to start driving EVs. They'll like to drive the Chevy Blazer EVs. Today's children and teens want new and futuristic technology things for both fun and school.
Gm , the great American car company with Unionized American workers, unfortunately, this will be made in Mexico. 😅😅 sorry UNIONs but you've been screwed..
Nice GM ad, dude. The Silverado isn't for sale, the Hummer is a unicorn that no real humans will buy, and it doesn't take eight years to build a new car. GM talks about EVs the same way I talk about going on a diet.
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada I have put down a deposit for the entry blazer ev @$51998 a bargain for what you get up to 400kms per charge and I don't care about the color
Never buy Chevy, Ford or Chrysler products. You will regret it! We made the mistake of buying a Chrysler Pasifica and before that a family member had a Ford Fiesta... both cars had multiple problems (including major transmission issues) and were nightmare to own. A co-worker owns 2003 Toyota Highlander and it still runs very good... do I need to say more?
@@therickyp1917 again, electric vehicles are pretty much unknown territory for legacy automakers so transmission, engine, fuel pump issues, etc really don't apply.
This video is nothing but an ad. Nothing critical about the vehicle and like all the others, no one is attempting to open the frunk. Just glaze over the front 30% of the vehicle like it doesn’t exist. Some of us are paying attention. Did you guys not want to ask what’s in there or show us.

A brand new vehicle, yet it looks old/outdated. I'm not sure that's a good thing GM has missed the chance to lead their customers into the new era of EVs with truly ground-breaking designs & technology instead opting for a throwback to the 70s?

True but that vehicle is very disappointing to begin with lol
I have an RS and love it so not sure what you guys are talking about
GM is coming out with some of the best looking EV's right now. I think this looks really good. Numbers look decent also.
Whats under the front hood ? I have seen no pictures of that open.
What’s the overall length of the SS trim?
have thy announced the HP rating for the RS yet?
Wait the interior red is only for ss.?
SS looks the coolest but that price is nuts
Similar price with Ioniq5, EV6, way cheaper than Ford MachE but it is a mid to full size SUV I love it.
This as advertised is 65k.. around same as Mach E GT
It’s not actually cheaper when you consider the tax credit. So still a $7500+ difference. Or about the same difference as ICE compact and midsize cars.
@@LegendRonk i was comparing it to a similar trim, if you want long eange and sunroof, mach e is 20k more expensive
why didnt yall show the truck and frunk?
OMG the rear looks exactly same with lexus LC or NX!
Wow so much bang for your buck with the SS trim! Model Y Performance and the Mach E GT will set you back over $80k after taxes. This one will definitely be a hot ticket.
Was it me but the nav did not see really responsive?
I didn’t hear anything about range or how fast it charges.
He said the range in the video..
Excellently done video. A ton of good information efficiently presented.
Thanks for watching!
Great looking design, hopefully is affordable and is available for the avg consumers.
My only issue with the blazer ev is the relatively low 290 mile range for a new product that doesnt do the 800v charging.
17” screen?!
This trend of slapping names from completely different vehicles on modern crossovers is just wack.
I like it. Better than Model Y and Mac E. Good job Chevrolet.
Hmm my YLR schedualed some time b4 Jan if it does not change again. I wonder how there deliveries will go
Small suggestion, how about going to 4k videos? Those of us with 1440 or 4k monitors/phones/televisions would appreciate it.
The design looks fantastic! I can't wait to get behind the wheel and take a look around one in person.
Looks more attractive than model Y and Mach E
Looks good. That infotainment system is giving me some Lexus vibes.
Definitely Lexus influence in the infotainment system and completely copied the lexus lc500 taillights.
Thanks for sharing, I do wish you could have transitioned to view each of the trims as you were talking about them. As this is a video and not a podcast. Take advantage of those stunning visuals and design work put in on this vehicle!
Unless it’s more affordable, it can be as sporty as it wishes, but no one but the rich will buy it.

No reason why General Motors can’t compete. This car shows that they are serious about the transition.

Or a high performance hybrid
This is a bargain Lexus! Didn't realize Toyota and GM are still doing business together...
