2024 CHEVROLET BLAZER EV CHARGING WOES BEFORE A 900-MILE ROAD TRIP

EV Channels Review

This video highlights significant charging challenges encountered with the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV RS AWD during its initial delivery phase. While the vehicle boasts an attractive design, particularly the RS trim with its red interior option and distinctive lighting animations, the review focuses heavily on the frustratingly slow and inconsistent charging speeds experienced at an Electrify America station. The presenter and guest, Justin from Cars Made Simple, express concern over the vehicle's performance, noting that the advertised power output felt lacking and that charging speeds dropped significantly, even when connected to a high-speed charger. The vehicle was also in 'transport mode,' which may have impacted its functionality. Despite these issues, the interior design and screen real estate are praised. The video serves as a cautionary tale about early EV adoption and the current state of charging infrastructure, especially for a vehicle intended for a 900-mile road trip.
