MME vs Chevy Blazer EV

[BigMach-E]

I had an SS reservation, wasn’t serious about it, but since I got my GTPE, I don’t really want to deal with any car stuff that I don’t have to until I get this car paid off.

This might be the first Blazer RS AWD review I've seen anywhere.

Interestingly, GM upgraded the RS RWD to a 102 kWh battery pack and 190W charging speed (largest/fastest) of any of the Blazer trims. If only they lowered the price by $10k and added SuperCruise back in.

From GMAuthority:

Seems like there's not much incentive to buy a Blazer EV (no Supercruise either unless you get the SS) right now when the Lyriq is priced the same and comes with Supercruise? Unless you really really prefer the Blazer EV styling.

I really really prefer the Blazer styling.

I’m not buying either, but wouldn’t even consider the Lyriq due to looks.

Certainly reminds me of all the features I expected my MME to have a year ago and I'm still waiting for.

Ford, are you seeing this shit? 190kw charging, motorized charge door, 500hp, cooled seats, supercruise on day 1...

While very similar looking to the MME at certain angles, it certainly looks like Chevy has a winner here.

It has great potential, but... We always hear of the good things before the car comes out. The quirks and problems and shortcomings don't get realized until after people get their hands on it. Just like the MME.

The Blazer stickers for more than the MME, does not have Car Play/Android Auto, and has not been out long enough for any real reviews of it. The MME has been out now for a couple years and is a lot more available on dealer lots. That would make it a no brainer for me if I were deciding between the two.

Wouldn't consider one based on my wonderfully styled GTPE power output. Biggest con the power dropoff in a drag race. Its not that I drag race but the qtr times vs model y performance. Its paid off and my 7 yr old grand daughter has dibs on it at 16. My daughter has a 2012 challenger srt8 392 her 1st muscle car and it will never leave the family. Husband has 95 shelby mustang conv nitrous with bell supercharger. Muscle head family for sure.

It's still #NoTaBlAzEr... ??

Real Blazers have removable roofs, are full-sized, and have rust-through. ??

Can anyone actually get one of these? I mean GM has not had the easiest of time making the Ultium based vehicles.

A few are just starting to trickle into dealers now. Often with ADM, of course, being in the "hot commodity" phase.

Yeah that ADM is not surprising. A lot of dealers will try to take advantage of the supply shortage with the Blazer EV.

Is there a weird media blackout on reviews and tests like they did for the Mach E GT? I can’t find squat on test numbers for it.

Whenever someone does this, it seems like they’re hiding something. Like a movie that won’t let reviewers pre-screen it.

All I could find was this video. When he tests the acceleration he makes a “eh, ok” noise and face- (about 32 min in)

If you look at the Lyric or Hummer EV, GM was slow to give reviewers cars to review bc the production hadn't ramped. That seems to be the case with Blazer EV.
