2025 CHEVROLET BLAZER EV SS FAMILY REVIEW WITH CHILD SEAT INSTALLATION

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV SS is presented as a sporty, family-oriented electric SUV, but the review highlights a mixed bag of features and performance. While the interior is praised for its stylish mix of materials, colors, and comfortable seating with amenities like heated and ventilated seats, the exterior styling, particularly the front fascia, receives criticism for being uninspired. The infotainment system, despite its large screens and Google integration, is a point of contention due to the lack of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and voice control issues. Practicality for families is a strong suit, with ample rear-seat space for adults and easy installation of child seats, even in a rear-facing configuration. However, the ride quality is described as "jiggly" and heavy, especially on rougher surfaces, betraying its substantial weight. Performance is a standout, with the SS trim delivering supercar-like acceleration (0-60 in 3.0 seconds) thanks to its 615 horsepower. Real-world range is noted as being less efficient than competitors, averaging 2.4 miles per kWh against an EPA estimate of 303 miles. Despite its impressive power and spacious interior, the reviewer ultimately prefers the Hyundai Ioniq 5 for its better handling and efficiency, though the Blazer EV SS is deemed a solid option for dedicated Chevrolet enthusiasts seeking performance.
