Chevrolet's EV Lineup is Coming
General Motors' famed brand, the Chevrolet, is one to revamp its lineup that adheres to the United States plans to save the planet by reducing its carbon emissions with clean energy cars coming soon. It originally started with the Chevrolet Bolt EV, the compact car that features a battery-powered drivetrain, its first contender in the EV race.
Since its success, the company has already debuted different models that will join the Bolt EV in its quest towards clean energy.
One of the most anticipated cars from the company centers on a crossover SUV, with last year's announcement of the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV with the many trims it delivers. The EV was built under GM's Ultium platform, centering on a renowned drivetrain development powered by its powerful batteries for its next-gen electric cars.
The Blazer EV is the first of Chevy's electric lineup to feature the world-famous SS trim, known for being the company's performance line which was initially featured on the Camaro, Chevelle, El Camino, Monte Carlo, and more. With the recent showcase in one of the homes of American motorsport, the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV SS is set for the world, soon to bring its 557hp powers to all.
