Chevy has raised prices on the 2027 Blazer EV, pushing the base model past the $45,000 mark. The LT trim now starts at $45,000 before the $1,795 destination fee, for a total of $46,795 — a $300 increase over last year's model. The sportier RS trim also gets a $300 bump to $52,595, while the range-topping SS remains at $62,495. Adding all-wheel drive costs $3,000 on the LT and RS, and comes standard on the SS.
The 2027 LT and RS use an 85 kWh battery pack, with up to 312 miles of EPA range in front-wheel-drive models and 283 miles with AWD. The SS uses a larger 102 kWh battery and delivers up to 302 miles. All 2027 GM electric vehicles include a native NACS port, so Blazer EV drivers can use Tesla Superchargers without an adapter. Chevy also made an optional eight-speaker Bose premium audio system available on the LT and RS trims, addressing a common complaint from current owners.
The price hike comes as Blazer EV sales have dropped nearly 80% since the federal $7,500 tax credit expired last year. According to Kelley Blue Book, GM sold just 4,427 Blazer EVs through the third quarter, down from 20,825 during the same period a year earlier. At its new starting price, the Blazer EV costs more than several competitors, including the Tesla Model Y, Toyota bZ, and Hyundai IONIQ 5, though it is longer and offers more interior space.
