MY WEEK WITH THE 2024 CHEVY BLAZER EV

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV RS is lauded for its exceptional driving dynamics, offering superior handling and a remarkably smooth ride compared to competitors like the Mustang Mach-E. The reviewer praises its progressive power delivery, well-calibrated brakes that feel natural, and responsive steering. Interior features like cooled seats are highlighted as practical advantages. However, the vehicle's infotainment system, which notably lacks Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, is identified as a significant drawback, particularly for iPhone users. The setup process is described as tedious and frustrating, requiring extensive permissions and app installations. While functional for Android users with Google integration, it forces Apple users to compromise on familiar apps and introduces a less intuitive texting experience. Despite these infotainment issues, the reviewer concludes that the Blazer EV is a fantastic vehicle for Android users, but the lack of seamless smartphone integration makes it a dealbreaker for many Apple users, overshadowing its otherwise impressive EV capabilities.
