This actually looks really good inside and out. Range could have been a bit longer, but still a very impressive product.

[@Nebula1701]

I think the RS is the best all around option if you aren't after the power. It has the longest range of all 4 trims at 320 miles.

[@tuanas458]

The range is fine, dude. You can charge that thing in like 20 mins full charge.

[@LeadfootLou]

This is actually a good looking EV. It’s numbers are better than the Ford Mach E GT.

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

As someone who was a kid when the EPA crushed the HP out of the cars (no computers on engines), we assumed that the days of high HP was over. Its crazy, the HP they are putting out now. The EVs bring unbelievable torque.

[@memememine1]

During those days of low hp how did people regard the old vehicles made right before the ban that still had lots of power. I'm just curious if they were considered "modern classics" like some of the naturally aspirated sports cars are today.

[@Lanse1984]

EPA didn't crush HP. Once it was out that leaded gas killed over 100 000 000 people something had to be done. Yes you read that correctly

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

@@Lanse1984 The auto manufacturers didnt have the technology to meet the emissions and found out that detuning the motors could meet it. Now, they have computers and fuel injection and such. It was around the same time that the switch to unleaded gas had occurred. It wasn’t because of the lead, it was the detuning.

[@Lanse1984]

@@jamesdellaneve9005 no leaded gas was used to up compression amd advance timing for hp gains. Once it was removed those big engines had to be severely detuned

[@shaynehix7711]

ICE vehicles are still putting out very equivalent, and in several cases more power. So....

[@msshelby8843]

Not a EV ' r BUT. Definitely like the looks of this one WAY MORE then the Ford Bronco.. AWESOME VIDEO, GREAT Content / questions!! You really have git this stuff down!! CONGRATS!!

[@JF-rf9fx]

How so

[@josemanuelruiz2036]

I like it more than the Mach E and the Model Y, specially the interior.

[@markpomerhn76]

Man, you sure get around and showcase some interesting vehicles! Camera work and presentation is great. Thanks.

[@johnelegant1727]

This is an exciting EV. Great video Austin. Thanks Blazer lead staff Doug and Justin and all your colleagues for creating it. There will be 557 HP/648 TQ Blazer SS EV in our future next summer.

[@Hangin_With_Shane]

Austin, BlazEr SS looks awesome! I really love how they didn't do away with the buttons and knobs and integrated them into the modern design! I don't like a screen only for all feature! Excellent video and content man! -Shane

[@richardmorris7063]

Nice looking piece,love the 22" wheels. The grill looks mean & the vehicle looks like its going fast when its sitting still. Thanks Austin

[@HellcatDreaminJosh]

Speed Phenom Awesome Video I think the All Chevy Blazer SS EV looks absolutely incredible inside and out and I can't wait to see what EV Chevy will reveal next

[@antimatterenergy588]

Love that short overhangs!

[@rschris]

It looks real awesome, I can’t wait to see aftermarket wheels on it to really help set it off. It has some awesome body lines and looks like it had great room in the back seats

[@BengalTiger47]

Hope they’ll have an all black wheel option. Pair that with black and white two-tone finish, and it’ll look incredible.

[@BenjySparky]

Austin you rock! Love the channel and content! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace

[@billyd7806]

Looks amazing but not nearly enough range IMO.

[@Nebula1701]

For the size and weight of this vehicle getting 320 Miles in the RS is actually really good.

[@_944audiophile]

Curious which brand sound system is supplied w the SS version? Also, is their a noise canceling system to reduce exterior noise similar to the Luriq?

[@skytechm07]

Is the RS including super cruise or basic adaptive cruise control ? Thanks

[@SHELBY13GT500]

Cool! Chevy did a great job!

[@Nick0777]

O wow , I can’t believe it Chevy . Looks surprisingly really good 😯

[@azchris1979]

Is this what people were speculating to believe is a corvette suv?

[@terrywalsh331]

Great looking EV SUV. Amazing horsepower and torque numbers. Replacing my current SUV in another year with an EV possibly and this one should be on the short list.

[@JayCaseGT500]

Did it coming with a warning ⚠️ "California users will only be allowed to drive on letter C rotation days when the California power grid will be able to supply the electricity to charge the battery" A and B grids will be shut down those days Note: NO CHARGING WILL BE ALLOWED BETWEEN 12-5 PM, regardless of rotation due to excess draw and demand. Public transportation recommended. Sound crazy? IT'S COMING FAST.

[@skidhvh]

Its not just cali, electricity prices will go up everywhere, may be even 5x since they 100% will have to build stronger power grid in order to charge tens of thousands EV's at the same time

[@Jokerboss421]

It would be cool if they brought back the teal green

[@GOD2FAST]

Ok make the 2025 SS Camaro now

[@lmlm-ph4pp]

Are the new blazers only available as EV??

[@mandoleenebando429]

Can you do a review of the new 2023 Ford Raptor factory it has 700hp 680nm torque

[@albanybrian]

Nice presentation. Nice to see an EV vehicle that looks more like a vehicle instead of some sort of strange creation that seems to owe it's styling to trying to say look at me I am an EV.

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

I like it, sharp, but, before buying one, I'd have to look at and compare it to the Ford equivalent.

[@JayCaseGT500]

Regarding the public charging- 10 minutes of my time will give me 80 miles of travel. I think that's correct. What's the max charge in public? 30 minutes for 240 miles?

[@TimShelnut]

It looks awesome love all they did to make it sporty and I see corvette styling has gone into it. Even rear taillights have that Z06 side vent style. Only thing I could want is this thing with a LS motor in it like my Trailblazer SS back in the day.

[@bryanzavala3119]

Gm needs to stop jacking around and get their issues with the vehicles for sale right now solved, also bring a new gen Camaro

[@Nebula1701]

If you actually pay attention GM is solving their supply and logistics issues, it just takes time. Also GM isn't alone in having these issues, every company is having them.

[@danielramsey1959]

I like it but I like the Lyric more.

[@cvoxoisgodly]

Boi wait a damn minute 😅😅😂😊😅🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@rglce25]

Your like if Shmee 150 and DDE had a son.

[@rueben44]

Amazing looking product but both guys would not answer the questions they were asked they just kept going on to something else or talking around the edges.

[@davidtyra1441]

Really celebrate 🎉? Lol

[@shaynehix7711]

It all sounds good. Except the vehicle itself. Does it have a beautiful aggressive low rumble growl to go with that power? No? Strike one. But why can't the range be considerably more than what ICE provides? I mean, 300 miles? That's it? And it probably won't ever reach that range. It's only going to degrade over time especially fast charging. Strike two. It's made in Mexico. Strike three! You're out! I do agree the styling is nice though.

[@richardmorris7063]

All good points & when the truck gets old what the neck do we do w/ these huge batteries?

[@michaellocklear6396]

I was hoping it would have been a Hybrid or at least a High output gas engine Model. What kind of throws me off is the Hummer EV is bigger and dose 0 to 60 in 3.0 sec this is supposed to be an SS it should be faster then the Hummer in my opinion. Looks good but straight EV dose not sell for me maybe some one else. Nice vehicle none the less.

@@FJTabb No, the top trim Hummer E1 _is_ just over $100k. Actually now priced similarly to a ICE F-150 Raptor R which is laughable.

[@kellymeade4587]

I’m in shock about this! When did a Blazer become a sedan wagon.. that has no ground clearance??? You just make an EV ….and just slap a (Blazer badge) on it, tell all the customers this is the new Blazer. The current Ford 4-Door EV Mustang… has more ground clearance , And I don’t really consider it to be a Mustang. It’s more of an SUV with clearance…. the badge happy Chevy guys, Slap a legendary Blazer Off-Road machine badge , on an EV sedan wagon, with four doors…. that can’t even go down a rough dirt road. Exactly (opposite) of what this should be. It’s a cool EV, they did a good job …but don’t throw a Blazer name on it….If you make a nice vehicle …come up with a new name, don’t degrade what’s left of an off-road legacy for Chevy fans. Ford has the Bronco, Dodge Chrysler Fiat has the Jeep, both real SUVs that can off-road. There’s no SUV I’ve ever seen, that sits this low to the ground. Just Slap a badge on it and be done with it I guess! It would’ve been fine if you had put anything but …the (Blazer badge) on this vehicle. Years ago you had a Pontiac Sunfire , call this the Chevy Sunset. Anything but a Blazer, and I’m a non-biased person, I like all vehicles. I rode in my friends Blazer growing up. The name is embarrassing for this vehicle! It is nice… but this is totally wrong. Blazer enthusiast are gonna be really upset about this. At least , Ford got the Bronco right. Just don’t put a legendary name on something that it’s not ….when an EV mustang rides higher than a blazer… it’s a messed up world!

[@Nebula1701]

Blazer Enthusiasts are living in the 80s. There hasn't been a true off-road Blazer since the end of 93. If they are really looking for a true off road SUV, then they need to look at the Trucks GM have like the up coming Silverado EV and Hummer EV SUV.

[@hi-fi3889]

People complain about anything. The SS sits lower. Look at the current blazer and the one and the s10 Blazer that came out in the 80s until around 2002

[@jeremyjones5992]

Is so hard to come up with a name? Nobody thinks this a blazer . Why keep the name ? So 240 - 320 range depending on trim …. Not bad but not amazing. Mach e base gets 314 ..
