2025 Chevrolet Blazer vs 2024 Blazer: Top Updates and Features Compared
Chevrolet Blazer EV 2025: A Slightly Improved Electric SUV
Chevrolet seems to be taking the electric Blazer to the next level with the announcement of the 2025 model. This midsize EV represents a helpful upgrade over its 2024 counterpart. While the Blazer EV is one of Chevrolet’s more affordable EV models, it’s not the cheapest, unlike the Equinox EV. The Bolt EV, which was once the company’s cheapest electric car, is currently on hiatus, with a redesign expected in the near future.
Design
The design of the Blazer EV hasn’t changed much for 2025. Chevrolet has kept the same overall design as the previous-generation model. While it may not be the most premium-looking vehicle out there, it certainly looks better than you’d expect for a vehicle in its price range. The car is branded as a midsize SUV and is a bit larger than some of the other electric crossovers.
Interior and Tech
The interior and tech offered by the 2025 Blazer EV are very similar to those of the 2024 model. This isn’t a bad thing, though. The Blazer EV only comes with two rows, but those two rows are relatively spacious and should provide enough room for up to five people inside the car. The interior is relatively sporty-looking, avoiding some of the boring design traps that you might expect from a cheaper electric vehicle. The vehicle offers 26 cubic feet of cargo space in the trunk, which expands to 60 cubic feet when the second row of seats is folded.
Performance
The powertrain is where things differ a bit between the 2024 and 2025 models. The Blazer EV now comes with a front-wheel-drive base model, which previously wasn’t available. This model offers 220 horsepower and 243 pound-feet of torque. However, the cheapest Blazer EV for 2025 is still the all-wheel-drive LT trim, followed by the rear-wheel-drive RS trim, and finally the high-performance Blazer EV SS, which is expected to go on sale in early 2025 and deliver 595 horsepower.
Range and Charging
All models of the Blazer EV are getting a range improvement for 2025. The AWD models will now get an estimated range of 283 miles on a charge, while the RWD models will get a 10-mile improvement, totaling 334 miles. The charging speed on the vehicle remains the same, at up to 190 kilowatts on a DC fast charger.
Price and Availability
The best thing about the 2025 model is its lower starting price. The base model Blazer EV LT now starts at $48,995, which is $1,200 less than before. The rear-wheel-drive model, the Blazer EV RS, starts at $56,990, which is $820 more than last year. The Blazer EV SS isn’t available yet, but it will start at $61,995.
Conclusions
The 2025 Chevy Blazer EV may not represent a radical change over the 2024 model, but its improvements do trend in the right direction. The vehicle performs a little better, offers a slightly longer range, and costs a little less. It’s hard to complain about that.
