Trims and Powertrain
The trim trio for the 2026 Blazer EV consists of the LT, RS, and SS. The LT and RS get standard front-wheel drive (FWD), while all-wheel drive (AWD) is optional for those trims and standard for the SS. With FWD, the Blazer EV comes with a single motor and an 85 kWh battery to yield 220 horsepower and an estimated range of 312 miles. In the AWD configuration, the LT and RS move to a dual-motor setup, increasing output to 300 hp with a range of 283 miles. The dual-motor, AWD-only SS uses a 102 kWh battery, making up to 615 horsepower in Wide Open Watts mode. This version provides up to 302 miles of range.
DC fast charging supports peak rates of 150 kW for the smaller battery and 190 kW for the larger pack, translating to 68–87 miles of range added in about 10 minutes, depending on the trim and drivetrain. Level 2 charging provides 20–35 miles of range per hour. The Blazer EV in LT or RS trim can tow up to 1,500 pounds; towing isn’t recommended for the SS. Cargo capacity starts at 25.8 cubic feet behind the back seats, expanding to 59.1 cubic feet behind the first row. Storage space grows slightly for Blazer EVs with a sunroof.
