Performance and Charging
The Blazer EV SS with Wide Open Watts delivers 557 hp and hits 0-60 in the mid-3-second range. The Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition delivers 480 hp and roughly matches on straight-line speed. Both are legitimately fast EVs at similar price points. The Blazer EV has 77 more horsepower on paper; the Mach-E has slightly quicker 0-60 in the top trim configurations. Both use NACS-compatible charging with Tesla Supercharger access.
Charging is a real gap: 190 kW peak on the Blazer EV vs 150 kW on the Mach-E. Over the course of a typical DC fast-charging stop, the Blazer EV adds roughly 20% more range in the same 30 minutes.
Interior, Tech, and Cargo
The Blazer EV’s 17.7-inch touchscreen dwarfs the Mach-E’s 15.5-inch vertically oriented display. The Blazer uses Google built-in — no CarPlay or Android Auto. The Mach-E supports both, which is a real advantage if you prefer projecting your own phone. Cargo edges to the Mach-E at 29.7 cu ft when you include its 4.7 cu ft front trunk (frunk) — the Blazer EV doesn’t have a frunk. Behind the rear seats alone, they’re roughly comparable.
Pricing and Value
The Mach-E starts at $41,995 — $2,605 less than the Blazer EV’s $44,600 base. But the Blazer EV’s max range (324 mi) beats the Mach-E’s max (320 mi) by 4 miles, and the Blazer EV’s 190 kW DC charging significantly outpaces the Mach-E’s 150 kW. The Mach-E GT Performance runs about $60,000; the Blazer EV SS runs about $61,000. Very similar pricing at the performance tier.
Common mistakes Denver shoppers make
- Assuming similar starting price = similar overall value. Charging speed matters over 5+ years of ownership.
- Overlooking that both offer legitimate performance trims (557 hp SS vs 480 hp GT Perf).
- Missing the 17.7″ vs 15.5″ screen difference in daily use.
- Not comparing hands-free highway systems back-to-back — Super Cruise and BlueCruise have different coverage areas.
