What's New for 2025?
The Blazer EV welcomes a new front-wheel-drive base model that lowers the starting price but also invites comparisons with the far cheaper Equinox EV, which shares the same powertrain. Also new is the dual-motor SS model with 595 horsepower, while both the standard dual-motor Blazer EV and the more powerful rear-drive version get modest power bumps and slightly higher range estimates.

FAST FACTS
"The Blazer EV is only barely longer than the cheaper Equinox EV, although it does have a 5.5-inch-longer wheelbase, and it shares its AWD powertrain with its lesser sibling, too. The main reason to stretch for a 2025 Blazer EV is its optional rear-wheel-drive powertrain, which is shared with the Cadillac Lyriq and increases both power and range considerably. On the other hand, the rear-drive Blazer EV costs nearly as much as the Lyriq, so its value proposition is questionable. We do prefer it to the Cadillac Optiq, however, which, despite the luxury badge, delivers both less power and worse range while utilizing the Equinox EV's shorter wheelbase. By the way, if you're thinking that GM has a number of EVs in this general price range that share a lot of elements, you're onto something. It can be hard to keep them all straight."—Ranked #4 out of 12 Compact Electric SUVs
