If Chevrolet weren't in General Motors' portfolio, it would be nothing . The bowtie brand boasts the highest sales figures for the group worldwide, hence its value. So much so, that although GMC and Buick receive most of the praise for their electric models, Chevrolet has been working on them for the longest time. In any case, the brand has been preparing for this transition for some time, and 2022 will be a year of significant changes.
Over the past few months, we've seen several previews of models General Motors plans to launch . In fact, they recently released a series of teasers showcasing the new Silverado EV, the GMC Hummer EV, and the Cadillac Lyriq. Well, now they're back with a new teaser of a model that's sure to catch the eye of the brand's most loyal fans. It's the Chevrolet Blazer EV SS. Does it ring a bell?
The Chevrolet Blazer EV SS will arrive, if all goes well, in the spring of 2023…
Well, it should, because the Blazer is one of the SUVs with the richest history in Chevrolet's lineup . And not only because it's an iconic name for the brand, but also because it's going electric. But there's more, and that's evident in its "SS" designation. Do you know what those initials mean? They stand for Super Sport , and they're used on the sportiest models in the range. So, we have an electric SUV with a racing pedigree.
Regardless of its positioning, Chevrolet wants us to start speculating about this new Blazer. That's why they've released a teaser image showing it connecting to a charging station . The rest of its design details remain completely hidden. However, there's a teaser video that reveals a bit more. It's not much, but enough to see its wheel arches, how the charging port closes, and the alloy wheels.
Its design is truly sporty, but what we like most is seeing the SS initials in red . It's also worth noting that they have six double spokes and are finished in gloss black and chrome. In any case, the official press release doesn't provide many details. According to what we can read…
Chevrolet offered a glimpse of the all-electric Chevrolet Blazer SS , which will be the first Chevy EV to feature a high-performance SS model. The all-electric Blazer SS will debut later this year and will be available in spring 2023.
However, rumors so far haven't revealed any details. It doesn't take a genius to figure out it will be based on General Motors' Ultium platform , but beyond that, everything is a mystery. We'll have to see how things unfold, but its debut is getting closer... So, patience.
