GM will reportedly stop making gas-powered Chevy Blazer


The combustion engine version of the Chevy Blazer is reportedly being discontinued and will eventually only be offered as an EV, sources tell GM Authority. Both the Chevy Blazer EV and the gas-powered Chevy Blazer have been assembled at GM’s Ramos Arizpe plant in Mexico, but with the gas Blazer now sunsetting with the 2025 model year, the facility is being retooled only to accommodate electric vehicles, GM Authority says.
In an email to The Verge, Chevy representative Chad Lyons says that “we have no portfolio changes to share and will not comment on speculation.”
Chevy makes EV and ICE versions of the Blazer mid-sized SUV and the Equinox, a smaller SUV. The models didn’t only differentiate in powertrains from their gas counterparts but also in style and platform. Both the Blazer EV and Equinox EV share GM’s tailored EV platform (formerly called Ultium) and are built in the same plant in Mexico alongside the Cadillac Optiq. Honda’s Prologue, which is essentially a rebadged Blazer EV, is built in the same plant as well.
As GM Authority notes, a discontinued gas-powered Blazer means Chevy no longer carries a two-row combustion SUV in North America. Chevy does still use the nameplate for a three-row SUV in China.
