2023 Electric Cars List: 53 Models To Watch Out For

Chevrolet Blazer EV

The 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV is a zero-emission alternative to the Blazer midsize SUV that arrived in June 2018. The vehicle is available in 1LT, 2LT, RS, and SS (Super Sport) trims for individual customers, and a pursuit-rated Police Pursuit Vehicle (PPV) trim for police forces. Additional trims will be available for other fleets and commercial customers as well.

The Chevrolet Blazer EV features five seats, a flat floor, a 17.7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and an 11-inch digital instrument cluster. The RS and SS trims additionally feature unique trim and design cues, with the RS having blue and red contrast stitching and the RS featuring Adrenaline Red suede microfiber seats and Argon Orange accents (optional). The front seats of these trims are heated and ventilated as standard. Additionally, the SS trim has heated rear outboard seats, an option in the RS trim.

In terms of range, GM expects 247 miles in the LT trim, 293 miles in the 2LT trim, 320 miles in the RS trim, and 290 miles in the SS trim. They all have onboard AC charging modules rated at 11.5 kW. Up to 190 kW of DC fast-charging is possible with the RS and SS trims.

The Chevy Blazer EV will be manufactured at GM’s Ramos Arizpe plant in Mexico, which is currently the production site of the gas-powered Blazer.

Chevrolet Equinox EV

The Chevy Equinox EV is a compact SUV that rivals the VW ID.4. It is not available to reserve yet, but prospective customers can sign up for updates on the Chevrolet U.S. website.

The Chevrolet Equinox EV features a bolder and sportier design compared to the gas-engined Equinox, and though it looks smaller and squarer, it could be more spacious, as it appears to have a long wheelbase compared to the overall length, courtesy of GM’s BEV2 dedicated EV platform.

The Equinox EV features a more upmarket interior with a sleeker dashboard, a fully digital instrument cluster, a floating touchscreen infotainment system, horizontally positioned, slim central AC vents, and a more compact climate control panel. It will be available with GM’s Super Cruise autonomous driving system.

GM will offer the Equinox EV with a 210 hp/242 lb.-ft. single-motor powertrain in FWD configurations and a 290 hp/346 lb.-ft. dual-motor powertrain in AWD configurations. The company has indicated two battery pack options will be available. Depending on the configuration, the range will vary between 250 and 300 miles. Do note all these figures are GM estimates, and the final values might be slightly different.

Prices of the Chevy Equinox EV in the U.S. start at USD 30,000. At launch, which will be in fall 2023, GM will offer it exclusively in the high-end limited-edition trim, and gradually in lower variants.

Chevrolet Silverado EV

Unlike the GMC Hummer EV pickup, the Chevrolet Silverado EV will have versions priced from MSRP of USD 39,900 to USD 105,000 (plus DFC) when it hits the market in 2023.

GM’s could steal the Ford F-150 Lightning’s thunder if it gets its first mainstream all-electric pickup right, the Chevrolet Silverado Electric. In spring 2023, the Silverado EV will debut on the market with the WT (Work Truck) variant offering GM’s longest-range battery pack with a GM-estimated range of 400+ miles on a single charge. In fall 2023, a fully loaded RST First Edition model will follow, for regular customers.

While detailed specifications are awaited, General Motors says that the Silverado EV RST will generate up to 664 hp and 780 lb-ft of torque in the ‘Wide Open Watts Mode,’ enabling a GM-estimated 0-60 mph time of under 4.5 seconds. GM Chair and CEO Mary Barra revealed during GM’s Q1 2022 earnings conference call that trial production of the Silverado EV at Factory Zero in Detroit-Hamtramck will start in March 2023.

As of October 3, 2022, GM is sitting on 170,000 Silverado EV reservations, and this figure includes intent from nearly 400 fleet operators.
