The Blazer EV shares its EV platform with the Cadillac Lyriq.
The AWD version we tested managed a respectable 278 miles in our 70-mph highway-range test.
It has an 11.5-kilowatt onboard charger that facilitates relatively quick home charging (about 10 hours on 240 volts).
But its 150-kW DC fast charger acceptance rate isn't anything special.
The Blazer EV delivers its power in a smooth and linear way, but the ride is rather stiff and handling isn't particularly agile.
We like that it has conventional door handles and a rear wiper.
The large infotainment screen integrates Google products such as maps and voice assistant, but Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are unavailable.
For 2026, the RWD model was discontinued.
