Chevrolet’s 2025 Blazer EV is set to hit the market with lower starting prices, although this comes with some feature cuts. The all-electric SUV was initially introduced in 2022 but only became available in mid-2023.

Following four months on the market, GM issued a stop-sale to address software issues. In March, the stop-sale was lifted, and the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV was reintroduced with lower prices.

With the reintroduction, the electric Blazer became eligible for the full $7,500 federal tax credit, significantly reducing its starting price. The base Blazer EV 2LT AWD trim saw a price reduction of over $6,500, bringing the effective cost down to as little as $42,695 with the tax credit.

GM plans to introduce a more affordable Blazer EV LT FWD later this year, aiming to compete with Tesla’s popular Model Y with a starting price below $50,000.

Recent information from GM Authority suggests that the 2025 Blazer EV prices will be even lower. The 2025 LT AWD trim is priced $1,200 lower than the 2024 model.

However, some features, such as the Dual Level Charge Cord and Comfort and Convenience Package, are no longer standard. The charge cord, previously priced at $1,225, will be available for $295 as an option for 2025 models.

A Chevy spokesperson informed Electrek that “Some content which was standard on 24MY trims is now offered as optional content, resulting in a more affordable starting MSRP for these trims.” They also mentioned that performance improvements are planned for 2025MY Blazer EV models, with details to be revealed closer to production.

The RS AWD trim for 2025 is $300 cheaper, but once again, certain features are no longer included as standard. The RS Convenience and Driver Confidence Package, priced at $2,620 for the 2024 model, will now cost an additional $2,320 to include the charge cord.

With new incentives, lease prices for the 2024 Blazer EV are nearly on par with those of the gas-powered model. It is also cheaper than the 2024 Honda Prologue, despite sharing the same platform.
