The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV RS AWD Is A Well-Rounded Blend Of Style & Technology

I traded my Tesla Model Y for the Blazer EV RS AWD because it doesn't have a glass sunroof. I think they allow the vehicle to get too hot in the summer, and they are pretty expensive to replace. Since I never use a sunroof, I found no use for the panoramic roof either. Also, I think the Chevy feels more planted when driving at speed. My Tesla felt rather squirrelish at faster speeds.

One of the big problems of not having Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is that despite how much time you may spend in your car, your phone is with you 24/7. So for mapping, I usually begin at my desk before I leave, then CarPlay is with me in the vehicle and if I have to do any walking to a destination after, I’m still with my phone. There are other reasons but until GM makes a phone, I can’t see buying one and I’ve been a loyal GM owner since the 80s.

[@sociopathmercenary]

Does it log you into the same Google account that you use on your phone? I frequently save locations on my computer and then start navigating for my phone when I get in the car so I don't see it as being any different. I don't use Apple products and rarely use AA anyway because I work at home and drive a 12-year-old car anyhow. 😂😂 I do enjoy Android Auto when I'm running cars while traveling but it's never been a deal breaker for me.

[@LoFiMofo]

I agree. It’s like having an iPhone and a galaxy phone. Why would anyone want to do that? Very odd.

[@melvinjensen978]

They want to control the driving information in order to be able to sell it later on. If they open up to Android Auto / Car Play it isn't worth anything because other companies will already have it. Data is the name of the game, and who controls what you do with your car, where you go, how fast your going, all this is gold to insurance companies who want to use it to set your rates, and are willing to pay companies for your driving habit info.

[@yojoe4830]

No AA or ACP is really a non issue for most folks. I'm not going to NOT buy a car because of that, nor would I buy a car because of that.

[@mrnextlevel]

I appreciate your always thorough walk thru of new cars. Most auto review channels mostly focus on burn outs and zero to sixty times.Keep up the good work young man.

[@DRayL_]

A few things. I won't buy an EV, because I live in an apartment without any means of charging one. And I don't want to spend ~30 minutes sitting in a charging station while it charges. Also, I am not willing to spend ~$55K for a vehicle [too much money for me]. Now, having said that, if they had a Hybrid version, that may be a bit different. I suspect the hybrid would be less expensive. Now, the MAIN reason for my post is this. With all the new cars with the screens everywhere, so many seem extremely boring in design. And most of them look alike. However, this interior, IMO, is VERY nice and a change from what I've seen on so many. The way the dash screen and infotainment screen looks is excellent. But something like how the air vents look does A LOT for an interior design. And the vents in this car are excellently done!!

[@G-Rated]

Sweetheart the hybrid version would be marked up and even more expensive just like the rest of the desirable hybrids/gasoline vehicles. Highly desirable EVs are offering $7,500 off of their MSRP and you save thousands by the second year of ownership just from opting out of needing gas.

[@Just-a-guy926]

Do a comparison of the Prologue, Equinox and Blazer.

[@TheGrimmGroup]

Only comparison he'd have to go over is the smaller screens and gauge cluster than the blazer and the equinox. The prologue is on the same ultium platform and has the same battery size as all 3. Side by side they have minimal differences if you are showing the blazer next to the Prologue. The drive is identical just feels cheaper than the Blazer and the Equinox. Only benefit of the prologue is carplay. Honda is offering incentives for charging station installation and charge credits. fun fact by the way, the prologue actually has less cargo space than the blazer ev. Blazer EV has 25.5 ft³ seat area up, 59.1 ft³ with seat area down. The Prologue has 23.7 to 25.2 ft³ seat area up, 54.5 to 57.7 ft³ with seat area down.

The rear end styling is very good, interesting and helps it stand out. Risky but not a show stopper.

[@tpolerex7282]

This was the 2nd EV I had a deposit on and then wisely cancelled when its flaws were widely revealed.

[@G-Rated]

Absolutely stupid. What flaws does the Blazer EV have? Can you name any of them? Soyfan couldn’t even name the many issues he claims this vehicle had rolling out. There was a single “stop sale” until software glitches were addressed and since sales have resumed there has been zero issues. Meanwhile Lexus is recalling and issuing “stop sales” and there isn’t a peep about it. Y’all sure do a great job of allowing reviewers to paint pictures of manufacturers for you instead of doing your own research and being a critical thinker for yourself. People like Soyfan will always rag on the *gm* product regardless of its superiority over the Tesla Model Y.

[@PieterDamsteegt]

Had a friend who drove to the next state over to test drive the new GMC sierra EV and once he found it it didn’t have Apple CarPlay, dropped it from his lists, he was basically ready to sign a check until that so yeah some people are really affected by GM’s choice of lack of CarPlay

[@yojoe4830]

I think the Blazer EV looks better than the Equinox EV. That said, when Cadillac brings out the Optiq, on the same platform as the Equinox, that'll be a better looking EV than the Equinox, and it will only come in AWD and be around $50K. It will be a great buy.

[@dougf9900]

The massive rebate is on older RS models with different battery sourcing that don’t qualify for the $7500 federal tax credit. Chevy is offering a $7500 rebate on those, plus they have other rebates you can stack on top of that. I just got quoted over $16,000 off on a 2024 RS between discount and rebates.

[@BWill341]

I test drove 7 competitive EVs and the Blazer RS was the best of the class for me. It’s techy without being weird. Second place was the Mach E premium. I didn’t care for the way the screen sat on the dash like a tablet and it has a cars ground clearance. Otherwise very nice. Third was the EV6. Lots of features but felt slow compared to the others. I disagree with this video on the Equinox. A step down in both looks and performance to the blazer. Particularly in the RS trim. Fifth was the Model Y. Great acceleration on the model Y. I hated everything else about it but I got why others like it if that makes sense. The drive cluster on the infotainment screen was a big no. Hate the panoramic sunroof. I need buttons and the handling was squishy. The Honda Prologue was ok. Just like every other Honda. The Ionic was nice but severely overpriced.

[@easternyellowjacket276]

Been looking into GM's offerings in the EV market. The Equinox checks all the boxes for my family. As for the frunk that so many reviewers whine about, it's a non issue. I don't understand why every professional reviewer whines about it. Personally, could care less about CarPlay and Android Auto. The native system in GM seems fantastic.

That makes NO sense. Soyfan doesn’t apply the same criteria to Tesla or Rivian systems, he never brings it up.

Even though looks are subjective the Equinox EV does not look better than the Blazer EV it just does not.The Blazer EV has a daring and sporty presence that overwhelms the more mainstream looking Equinox EV in terms of exterior design. However I agree with Sofyan about how both vehicles are so close dimension wise, and the Blazer EV's seats are one of its weak points, it definitely needs better seats. Now to my issue with the Blazer EV RS, 0-60 in 5.9 seconds for a EV at this price point? GM surely do better with a sub 5 second performance variant. Still I consider the Blazer EV a solid crossover, the lack of AA and Apple Carplay are annoying but not a big deal for me at least. People who have this vehicle rave about it and enjoy driving it. Room for improvements here yes, but a good electric vehicle nonetheless.

I REALLY like the Blazer, it feels like a regular car, but No AA is a big deal for me, and if I was to buy an all-electric I would definitely go with a Kia over the charging speeds. I really think they dropped the ball on the charging speeds, no one can even argue that it could be faster. Also, I think they could have given it a little more punch to it and make it faster. Yes I know the SS is coming out, regardless, they still should have given the bottom trims a little more humph. I also think all the Blazers should come with a hitch since it is a truck/suv. I love the whole package, just not fond of the slow charging. I also think the charging door should be like on the Equinox instead of powered. Not here to change your mind, just my 2 cents.

Stellantis has *zero* EVs on roads today. *gm* has done all of that while simultaneously updating their ICE portfolio, and their ICE and EV nameplates share nothing but their names as their EVs are on bespoke platforms completely unrelated to their gasoline counterparts. The worst ppl can come up with about them is they had a stop sale to address software bugs and they don’t offer Apple’s CarPlay? I think that’s a nitpick by definition.

I second your opinion on design: GM in modern Chevrolet has flavor and uniqueness. Most other EV SUV either tend to go to generic SUV like VW ID4 or try to mimic the eggshaped Tesla like Ford Mustang Mach E. The exception is squareness of Hyundai Ioniq 5 inspired from 1980ties design.

[@sociopathmercenary]

I'm not an EV fanboy but I do have some interest. Definitely not ideal for long road trips of course. I work from home so I put very few miles on my vehicle. I'm currently driving a 2012 Chevy Impala that I took over from my wife. Since it became my vehicle, it gets about a thousand miles a year. That makes it hard for me to justify any new vehicle. However, I'm planning a pretty huge solar installation and I do like the idea of being the supplier of my own fuel. If you take care of your batteries by not discharging them below 20% and not charging them much past 80%, the battery is barely degraded at all over time. Aside from tires, maintenance is practically zero. I'd love to see someone offer better battery chemistry like lithium iron phosphate. Anyway, I'm going to stay informed and eventually I anticipate moving my wife to an EV and I'll have the backup ICE vehicle

Just depends on your daily life. I live in Iowa and travel a minimum of 25 miles a day. I drive a 2018 Chevy Volt and only use the EV mode. I plug in my garage that I rent with my apartment. Its good enough for charging since it typically sits in a garage for 10 hours. Maybe once a month I have to get gas for longer out of town trips which I don't even fill up. I usually put 10$ in and can do the round trip! Maybe every two months I need to fill up for a trip to my parents which is about 160 mile round trip. I can plug in on the farm/house. When filling up fully, it gives me about 280 miles but I never have to us it all. Ever since I've driven this car, it's convinced me that my next upgrade will be an EV. I suggest trying out by leasing or owning a plug-in hybrid which you can see how much you would need to rely on 300 miles.

[@TimLitwiller]

If you offer both then you have to figure out how to block or redirect maps in both android auto or carplay or you will have 1000's of users complaining that your can't find chargers and know what the battery level is.

i was getting 450 miles + on the hwy with my 2021 Blazer...gas > ev (always)

[@sociopathmercenary]

That doesn't mean anything without knowing how big your gas tank is. I can fill the bed of my truck with gas and drive from Coast to Coast.

$55k for no android auto and that horrible performance. GM is out of their damn minds.

Two gas struts on a hood that is almost never used because there is no frunk? Seems like a waste of money and weight.

$25 and 3 pounds on a $50k vehicle that weighs two tons. 😳

I beg to differ, I don’t think the equinox is better looking

Soyfan, if Apple is paying you it’s ok to tell us. I don’t understand the logic behind the idea the system is great on its own but needs Apple CarPlay in order to be a perfect functioning system. We’re gonna have to revisit that one day after some of you have realized you don’t need Apple’s software in order to buy a car and effortlessly interact. *gm* literally is held to a higher standard than every other auto manufacturer. People expect Chevrolet’s products to be aggressively sporty, exceptionally high tech, high quality, great reliability, great fuel efficiency, exceptionally comfortable, offer class leading practicality/space, and be the most affordable product in the segment or at least offer an amazing value for the price. Surprisingly the Blazer EV accomplishes all of that and reviewers do nothing but try nitpicking at it and the Cadillac LYRIQ in their reviews. *gm* is far from perfect, but they have the most promising lineup of EVs and chance of dethroning Tesla as America’s #1 producer of fully electric vehicles. This thing is beautiful and joins the rest of the _Ultium_ lineup in looking nearly identical to the concept version. 🔥😎

[@blackwhirlwind1245]

Why would Apple Pay him, a lot of people still prefer to have both google based system as well as apple CarPlay, not just him.

[@G-Rated]

@@blackwhirlwind1245 That’s completely besides the point. The question people want answered is *do we need Apple CarPlay in a Blazer EV* and the answer is no you do not, yet he proceeds to push the issue by demanding it because he simply wants to use them both which makes zero sense.

[@blackwhirlwind1245]

@@G-Rated why don’t you just accept the fact that most people do want and need apple CarPlay and Google based system? Not just sofyan, Alex too, and myself included, if I have to choose blazer EV or Prologue, the answer is clearly prologue, apple CarPlay alone beats blazer EV. If their EVs don’t sell well, blame themselves. Not only you can’t do Apple Music, but the google based system only lasts for 8 years for free, after that, why would you choose to buy subscription instead of just use Apple CarPlay?

[@G-Rated]

@@blackwhirlwind1245 why don’t you accept the fact that you are wrong. Nobody who buys a Blazer EV will need apple CarPlay and Soyfan literally just admitted that, yet here you are. You are a sheep and you clearly lack comprehension skills because it is obvious why Chevrolet who just invested in their own native system wouldn’t include the competitor’s.
