Chevrolet on Friday confirmed a boost to both EPA range ratings and power output for its rear- and all-wheel-drive 2025 Blazer EV lineup. It also released pricing and a little more information about the base front-wheel-drive model.
Rear-wheel-drive 2025 Chevrolet Blazer RS versions are arriving with an EPA range rating of 334 miles for 2025, up from 324 miles in the 2024 Blazer EV, while LT AWD versions achieve 283 miles, up from 279 miles. Horsepower and torque figures for both of those are also up—to 300 hp and 355 lb-ft for the LT AWD, and to 365 hp and 325 lb-ft for the RS AWD.
Both of those models remain available to order now, Chevy says. It also added a base price for its first front-wheel-drive version of the lineup, the LT, at $45,995, including the mandatory destination fee. That version will be available for order “soon,” according to the brand.
Range-leading RS RWD and top-performance SS AWD models will get a larger 102-kwh battery pack while the rest of the Blazer EVs get an 85-kwh pack. SS models step up to 557 hp, a retuned suspension, and 0-60 mph times under four seconds, and while Chevy hasn’t further detailed that model it confirmed a lower price for the 2025 Blazer SS of $61,995.

Chevrolet had already lowered the base price on existing AWD LT and RS versions by up to $1,200 as they were renewed for the 2025 model year earlier this past summer. For 2025, the Blazer EV LT AWD costs $48,995, while the Blazer RS AWD costs $54,295, with some content that had been standard for the 2024 models made optional—effectively raising prices slightly but allowing more flexibility if you don’t want those features.
The LT AWD’s Comfort and Convenience package and the RS AWD’s Convenience and Driver package are now optional—and so is a charge cord. That package includes wireless phone charging, a power tailgate, power front heated seats, heated steering wheel, and more, and is indicated as costing $2,295. The RS Convenience and Driver Package combines a head-up display, a surround-view camera system, and heated wipers. The package adds an indicated $2,620 but GM doesn’t appear to allow deleting it for 2025.
2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV
Nevertheless, the base price cut is a pleasant surprise for EV affordability, as shoppers—in recent surveys and in actual demand—have indicated they want more low-price EV choices. GM in March cut 2024 Chevy Blazer EV prices by thousands, as it resumed sales and deliveries of the electric SUV after a range of interface glitches, including charging issues, led to a Blazer EV sales pause in December.
GM noted that models delivered after that production pause had been given “significant software updates,” including updates to ambient lighting and gauge-cluster graphics for battery percentage. In a test drive of the Blazer EV last month, Green Car Reports found no software gremlins and was impressed by this model’s efficiency and range.

Meanwhile, the 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV is one of the most important vehicles of the year for affordability, because it starts with a base version starting at $34,995 and due to deliver 319 miles of range.
