Blazing a Trail: Chevy Blazer EV Earns Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX Honor
April 24 2024,
In the rapidly evolving world of electric vehicles, the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV is turning heads not just for its electrifying performance but for its exceptional interior and user experience. The all-electric SUV has been named one of the 2024 Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX award winners, an accolade that solidifies its place among the elite when it comes to cabin design and technologies.
Each year, the team at WardsAuto evaluates the interiors of new vehicle models based on a comprehensive set of criteria ranging from design aesthetics and use of materials to comfort, ergonomics, and user-friendly tech integration. The Blazer EV emerged victorious from a field of 25 contenders, impressing judges with its artful fusion of style, craftsmanship and intuitive interfaces.
"The Blazer EV's main display screen rivals those in luxury brand models with its great resolution and clarity," remarked WardsAuto judge Christie Schweinsberg. The eye-catching 17.7-inch diagonal colour touchscreen serves as the command center, enabling seamless control over vehicle systems and infotainment features.
But the Blazer EV cabin isn't all about supersized screens. As Bob Gritzinger from WardsAuto noted, "Eye-popping red accents and oh-so-sporty radial air vents are just the starting points for the Blazer EV, which features lightning-quick Google-based voice controls backed by a bevy of proper knobs and switches to manage the most-used functions."
It's this balanced approach to user experience that makes the Blazer EV so compelling. While offering cutting-edge technologies like the massive digital cockpit and natural voice commands, it still retains the satisfying tactility of traditional controls for core functions.
According to Phil Zak, executive design director at Chevrolet, the Wards recognition is a testament to the brand's uncompromising approach. "Our designers worked hard to elevate the exterior and interior design of the Blazer EV but maintain its true functionality. This award shows we are offering a great experience to our customers."
Beyond the show-stopping tech, the Blazer EV wraps its occupants in an upscale cabin filled with premium materials, distinctive styling accents, and generous passenger space thanks to the dedicated EV platform architecture. Attention to detail is evident everywhere you look and touch.
Now available at Chevrolet dealerships, the 2024 Blazer EV lineup starts at $56,999 for the well-equipped LT model. The athletic RS trim features bold styling flourishes and comes standard with an all-wheel drive system capable of travelling 449 kilometres on a single charge. The RS is also available with a rear-wheel drive configuration, which increases the range to an electrifying 521 kilometres on a full charge.
With the 2024 Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX Award, the Chevrolet Blazer EV establishes itself as the new benchmark for electric vehicle cabins at a mainstream price point. Uncompromising style, cutting-edge technologies, and user-focused luxury coalesce into a truly luxurious experience behind the wheel.
