@@DroneStrike1776GM’s EV’s are very heavy because they need more batteries to achieve competitive range. This raises costs which is why they lose tens of thousands of dollars for every EV they sell.

Great review. I agree with the naming conventions. They need to leave the iconic names in the past. Nothing is going to beat the Blazer or the Bronco for what those were in today's modern markets.
I vote for the EV Jetsons sound. Many years ago Chrysler licensed the Road-Runners Meep-Meep for the Plymouth Road Runner car. GM could get that Jetson sound.
5 AM dump time that means Sarah probably got up this morning about 3 AM….. Nice to see I’m not the only one who gets 4 1/2 to 5 hours of sleep a day. 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
While I was expecting a yellow top, this only means there is another car review in the can. 😁Outfit today was on-point, as was the review. Always looking at things from a different perspective.
Could not agree more with your assessment of using the name "Blazer." I have the same opinion about the Ford Mustang mach e, which bears little resemblance to a naturally aspirated ICE Mustang.
You got to love Sarah's analogies! 😂👌 - I do agree with you about the naming issue. Car-makers should stop re-using old iconic names on new cars that has nothing in common with the original (except the brand). This is still a somewhat cool looking vehicle, though - the worst example of this naming practise must be the new Ford Capri, that just looks like a non-designed generic blob and nothing like the sleek sports car it once was. I feel pitty for every old Ford Capri fanatic out there... Anyway - great review, thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!
Thank you Sarah for another enjoyable and informative review of another vehicle I would never consider buying. I'm sure that thing will eat up tires and brakes and when the battery is done will be as usefull as an old cell phone. To drive from Albuquerque to Denver would require a recharge so it would possibly become an overnight trip.
I am okay with "Blazer." I had an S-10 Blazer years ago. The old 70' K5 was cool, but it's legend is pretty well forgotten by a modern EV buyer. Thanks for another fun review. I have seen a few reviews of the Blazer and YOU WERE THE FIRST to point out the power button for the screen, so thumbs up!
Great review! Nice looking ev. I just wish they would make a lighter, less expensive 2 door version and make it in the USA. A solar sunroof would be a nice option, too.
Wow that got kinda deep near the end. I've wondered about the relevancy of brands anymore as well. More and more cars seem to be an assembly of shared parts from other manufacturers.
Which equates to, 0 competition and set pricing. A monopoly...we can't help but lose. And they don't even have to try. Just build Franken mobiles and toss a dart at "pay this price" board.
@@StirlingLighthouse an internal combustion engine car is more likely to start on fire than Tesla electric car. But let's not clutter the conversation with facts. Obviously avoid GM electric cars can't speak for their safety record.
In my experience, Chevy's EVs don't like being brake boosted, just pop it into Sport mode, use brake hold or one-pedal driving, and slam on the pedal. It does ramp up a little bit (rather than 100% from zero, even with TC off), but the brakes seem to affect acceleration from a dead stop.
When I was a teenager back in the 70s, my family toured the Colorado rockies in a 72 blazer. It was a bare bones 4x4 that went almost anywhere, and the rs badge was only on camaros. This vehicle is just a people mover and should be marketed as that. Use old folks are sometimes told to get out of the past and join the future, gm needs to do the same.

I chuckled a bit when you mentioned the revival of the Blazer name and how it wasn’t quite accurate to its original roots. My favourite is the Ford Maverick. I had the original in 1972. It couldn’t be more different than the one built now if it tried. Keep up the great work, I wouldn’t miss an episode for the world.
I saw a prototype pickup 20 years ago with in wheel motors. Today, I only know of aptera that is using an in wheel motor. They aren't really "in production" yet. Like it was said, unsprung weight is going to be an issue with this kind of design.
scrolling the comments on Hondas Prologue ads, owners complain of unreliable components, many repair trips to dealership...love your content, you're really skilled at filming, editing...you're well informed about the vehicles you review, you have driving skills and of course looking smoking hot to boot
Made in CZ, battery from South Korea, electric motor from China, assembled in Mexico, sold to Americans. I know I don't drive an American car, but at least my Japanese car was still built and assembled in Japan, BP Mazda3 AWD hatch. The sedans are assembled in Mexico. My E90 BMW, built and assembled in Germany.
When you’re willing to pay significantly more for everything if they were made in America, then perhaps they would shift manufacturing back here. Until then, US corporations answer to their shareholders, and shareholders only care about how much money they are making.
You must've heard the legendary stories of the giant car eating starfish!? .....also side note love your skirt...did you know that all Scottish and Irish counties have their own specific tartan pattern?
"At what point is an auto manufacturer even relevant anymore? Is it just a name and a badge on the equipment your operating?" True. Its about design, integration, tuning, sourcing, operations, marketing, and finance. Wait till self driving pods. Branding will have zero meaning.

Just what we all need headlights and taillights that tell us rate/state of charge. Keep in mind that GM still can not make headlights that last, do not bounce up and down and burn out early usually on juse side!
Thank you Sarah. As an old school boy scout that tries to plan for every scenario, ev' s just cant fill the role of a long haul road trip vehicle. I did COS to Tucson in 12hrs over Christmas and an ev wouldnt be able to do that if you need to stop every 120 miles to add 80% more battery. Not against ev's, we just dont have the infrastructure or tech to recharge in under 10 minutes yet.
Yup, meant more for people that don't get to road trip often. Great for back and forth to work and charging at home though. Waking up to a full tank every day would be kinda nice, as well as never having to spend time or money at a gas station!

Great review, as always, Sarah!🙏👍🏼 I think you handled the badge issue with your usual professionalism and humility. I think it should have been the Blasphemablazer.😅 along side the Electric Dumbtang. 🐎 as they are both now just another generic US SUV made from foreign parts. 🤷🏻♂️😉
Let's name it the Chevy Tazer! ⚡
Or the Lazer
I like that :D
Oh that is funny I love it😂
One thing you can say , it is not Blazer. Chevy disrespected the Blazer name. Ford did no better" Mocking" Mustang name.
Nice 😎
Even when I have no intention of buying the vehicle, I never miss your reviews. 😁😁😁

Great review. I agree with the naming conventions. They need to leave the iconic names in the past. Nothing is going to beat the Blazer or the Bronco for what those were in today's modern markets.
At least the bronco resembles the old broncos as in a boxy offroad vehicle. This Blazer does not resemble the old blazer at all.

"Underneath the chastity belt equipped hood." :) Seem like an EV with the "RS" badge should have at least 500 torques.
Assembled Mexico. So its now 25% more expensive.
You get what you vote for!
What is this? The consequences of our actions???
Wow shouldn't American jobs be more important??
PLUS Chevy's markup. People don't realize, companies are going to add tariff costs to their COST, not the selling price. Especially when it's parts...
Only 25% more in one country, not in mine :)

Great comment on the hood latches 😂❤
That red "leather" looks very Acura-esque.
"What in the robot scaffolding?", doesn't quite have the oomph as an expletive...
I think in-wheel electric motors is going to be a game changer for space inside the car and simplified suspension design.
I think it was Renault, did a car with proteon in wheel motors? It went like zero to 200 in 8 seconds! Some ridiculous rocket sled speed.
The un sprung weight might be an issue.
Saab's last model funded by the NES owners in China, had these. I believe the codeveloper was Proton motors from the UK
