Chevrolet Blazer EV relaunches with major price cuts and software overhaul

The Chevrolet Blazer EV is back on the market with significant price reductions in Canada and the US, and software updates designed to address earlier issues that resulted in a stop-sale order.

In late 2023, General Motors (GM) was forced to halt sales of the 2024 Blazer EV due to various software issues, including problems with the vehicle’s charging capabilities and infotainment system. These issues ranged from blank screens to error messages during charging sessions, significantly impacting the vehicle’s reliability and customer satisfaction.

In response, Chevrolet has rolled out a comprehensive software update aimed at fixing these problems and improving overall vehicle functionality.

We have made significant software updates that will improve features and functionality to deliver on the high expectations of our customers. We’re confident these improvements will address concerns heard from some early owners and as promised, we’re carrying learnings over to other products in GM’s lineup.
