However promising and despite some accolades some where not happy with this latest Blazer EV. According to a review in Motor1.com, considering the widespread preference for crossovers in the automotive industry, it's likely that the initial electric vehicle (EV) choice for many consumers will lean towards SUV designs. The Blazer, with its enduringly renowned brand name, shoulders the responsibility of this expectation.

This places formidable hurdles to overcome, especially as more affordable alternatives like the Kia EV6, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Ford Mustang Mach-E have enjoyed a couple of years dominating this segment unchallenged.
