City Chevrolet Of Grayslake – Why the 2026 Chevrolet Blazer EV RS Is the Sweet Spot for Style and Range around Mundelein, IL

If you want an electric SUV that looks bold, feels comfortably familiar, and travels far on a charge, the 2026 Chevrolet Blazer EV RS hits a rare sweet spot. The RS’s design makes a statement before you even get in: a Black-painted grille panel and lower fascia, gloss Black rocker molding, and that unmistakable illuminated front light bar and bowtie with animation. A standard Black two-tone roof completes the athletic stance, while 21-inch wheels signal this is the street-savvy choice in the lineup. Inside, a best-in-class 17.7-inch diagonal display anchors the cabin alongside an 11-inch Driver Information Center, so key details are always clear at a glance. With Google built-in, you can ask for a charging stop, route to your next meeting, or call home using natural voice commands—no phone pairing needed.

Range confidence is equally compelling. With up to 312 miles of EPA-estimated range with FWD, the RS comfortably handles workweeks and weekend escapes. One Pedal Driving and regenerative braking help recapture energy while easing your right foot through traffic. When it is time to plug in, the standard Dual Level Charge Cord supports Level 1 and Level 2 charging, and the myChevrolet mobile app with Energy Assist helps plan your route to more than 250,000 public chargers, including Tesla Superchargers with a GM-approved NACS DC adapter. Chevy Safety Assist adds reassurance with Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam® Auto High Beams.
