The Blazer comes in two additional trims: the RS ($49,900, 334-mile range) and the top-of-the-line, performance-focused SS ($60,600). The SS has the largest wheels of the three (22 inches), 595 horsepower, and goes from 0 to 60mph in 3.4 seconds. It’s not yet available to order, and Chevy says range information will be released closer to launch, but GM’s semi-autonomous driving software Super Cruise comes standard on the SS.The Blazer is a step up from the Chevrolet Equinox EV, which is the most affordable electric option in the brand’s lineup starting at $33,600 with a 319-mile range. Chevrolet also offers the pricey Silverado EV pickup, starting at around $100,000.
