      @@jamesbrei3285 I'm curious to know this as well. Michigan here and live in the snow belt. Since EV's are nearly prefect 50/50 weight distribution, I'm thinking it would do pretty well with dedicated snow tires, but I've love to hear from actual owners in states that get real winters.

    The fact you can get a head-up display on the EV but not the ICE is a head scratcher.

      Not much different from the Equinox. The EV gets Super Cruise where the ICE doesn't.

    Does he ever mention that the rear wheel drive has 320 hp which is more than what the all-wheel-drive has? You have to go to the SS to get a blazer with more horsepower on the 2024. You can get the rear wheel drive, fully loaded with the large battery, super cruise and the sunroof. You can’t do that with the all-wheel-drive at least not in 2024.

    As an owner of this vehicle, I would not recommend it. We had a 2020 Blazer that got totaled when someone blew a red light at 55 mph. We liked that vehicle so much that we decided to replace it with the EV version. What a mistake. The infotainment system is buggy. The screen will black out, but the music keeps playing. The navigation system routinely fails to upload directions. The adaptive cruise control has a hard time determining the exact location of other vehicles (especially at night) and will do some dangerous emergency breaking for no reason. We even have an issue with the turn signals. When we select the right turn signal, occasionally, the left turn signal will flash three times before the right one turns on....when we pull the car out of the garage, we have place the vehicle in park in order to navigate to the icon to close the garage door (this is a new problem that started after the latest update from the dealer). This isn't all the issues, but I think it gets my point across.

    I like the design, the creases along the shoulder lines on the quarter panels remind me of a 1971 Chevelle. I also like how they extend the lights as far to the edge of the vehicle as possible like old muscle cars to make the Blazer EV look more confident, boxy, and make the car seem lower. Chevy also did it with the redesigned Trax. I really dig it.

    It's time for a new vehical for my wife, we intend to use it as our "around town" car.
    But, torn between Blazer EV RS and Mach E, or even go for the Mach E Rally
    We won't really use the Rally, like a rally car. But, would want the "softer" ride.
    But, like the larger interior of the Blazer EV
    Any insight / feedback? especially Blazer EV RS vs Mach E Rally for a daily driver?
