After I attended the Blazer EV launch occasion earlier this month, my largest takeaway was how efficiently this new electrical automotive managed to behave like a conventional automotive, from the normal door handles to the normal key fob to the un-EV-like energy supply, the Blazer EV will not be making an attempt to reinvent the wheel, it’s making an attempt to supply consumers an electrical wheel that feels the identical as all the opposite wheels it has made previously.
When section opponents provide automobiles with pop-out door handles, bank cards as a substitute of keys and single-screen shows that may alienate the technologically-challenged crowd, the Blazer EV affords consumers a well-recognized driving and possession expertise to most different GM merchandise apart from refueling with a plug fairly than a pump. Sadly that appears to incorporate a few of the identical questionable reliability that impacts different GM autos, however hopefully GM can work out these gremlins quickly so new automotive consumers can confidently develop into part of the Blazer EV household.
Other than the array of unfavorable press the brand new automotive is getting, these are the surprisingly conventional options of the Blazer EV.
