EV Channels Review
The Chevrolet Blazer EV SS was put through its paces on the Charlotte Motor Speedway, showcasing its performance capabilities. While the vehicle delivers a claimed 0-60 mph time of 3.4 seconds with its 615 horsepower, reviewers noted that the acceleration felt somewhat heavy and less exhilarating than expected for an 'SS' badge. The engineers emphasized that the Blazer EV SS is designed as a daily driver with competent canyon carving abilities, rather than a dedicated track car. This focus is evident in its handling, which exhibits noticeable understeer at the limit, a characteristic designed for stability rather than aggressive track dynamics. Despite not being a track beast, the styling is praised, and the vehicle offers a comfortable ride with surprisingly little body roll for its class. The performance pack, including summer tires and low metallic brake pads, enhances its on-track demeanor, though an all-season tire option will be available for everyday use.
