THE CHEVROLET BLAZER EV IS THE 2024 SUV OF THE YEAR

Right now, at this very moment, we’re living through the greatest shift in the automotive industry since the dawn of the industry itself. Our transition from fossil fuels has implications of vast magnitude; electric vehicles will redefine environments, industries, governments, and societies. Viewed so broadly, this shift seems daunting, insurmountable—but a narrower scope reveals how attainable it really is.

It all comes down to you.
Some already know. Early EV adopters recognize the joys and potential of battery power. Others can’t imagine renouncing gas. Wherever you stand, you likely agree more EVs should be approachable, capable, and enjoyable enough to make electric driving realistic for more people. You should pay attention to our 2024 SUV of the Year: the Chevrolet Blazer EV.

The State of Things

More than a decade after we named the Tesla Model S our Car of the Year, the EV landscape remains skewed toward specific driver niches. That’s been predicated on and perpetuated by avant-garde SUVs such as the BMW iX or Jaguar I-Pace, premium sedans including the Porsche Taycan and Lucid Air, and ostentatious trucks like the Rivian R1T and GMC Hummer EV. Varied makes and form factors aside, these vehicles share chic, genteel appeal, not to mention price tags approaching or surpassing the six-figure mark. Many such EVs are great, but none of them is exactly ... normal. At the same time, many mainstream EVs have many turn-offs of their own, whether extraneous drama, first-effort foibles, or polarizing designs.

2023 Ford F-Series Super Duty

The heavy-duty truck world moves more slowly than other pickup classes, and progress comes in spurts. Take the Ford F-Series Super Duty, whose recent refresh included softer-edged styling, a new entry-level gas-fed V-8, a new high-output 6.7-liter turbodiesel V-8, and myriad small improvements like new bedside steps. Is it still basically the same truck as before? Absolutely, but it’s also a better Super Duty, however incrementally.
