- Powertrain: Features three electric motors with all-wheel drive
- Battery: 78kWh liquid-cooled system
- Tires: Specialized Goodyear rubber for enhanced grip
While no concrete performance stats are available, it’s expected that the EV.R could outperform current NASCAR vehicles. For reference, the production Blazer SS can accelerate to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds; this prototype likely surpasses that benchmark.
Chevy test driver Justin Allgaier shared insights from his experience:
- Adjusting to new driving dynamics without relying on engine sound or gearing
- Learning to manage regenerative braking for improved cornering balance
Significant attention has been given to aerodynamics:
- Altered shape: Blazer’s design has been stretched and lowered
- Upgrades: New splitters, diffusers, and a massive forged carbon wing enhance downforce
Imagine the thrilling sight of Blazer EV.Rs racing against Ford's Mach-E NASCAR prototypes at 200 mph—it promises to be an exhilarating spectacle.
Chevrolet's Blazer EV.R is an electrifying prototype that melds the iconic Blazer design with cutting-edge NASCAR technology. With its immense power and innovative driving features, it’s poised to redefine racing dynamics in an electric future.
