Sources: chevrolet.com and Build & Price for ZIP 80226 (2027 models), Chevrolet’s destination charge table, GM News (Bolt cargo volumes), fueleconomy.gov and Chevrolet’s 2026 Trailering Guide. Chevrolet lists a 150 kW DC peak for the 2026 Equinox EV but no kW figure for 2027, and has not published a 2027 Blazer EV tow rating. Bold marks the better figure.
Prices and Trims
Prices below are Chevrolet’s starting MSRPs excluding destination, from chevrolet.com and Build & Price for ZIP 80226. Destination is $1,395 on the Bolt, $1,800 on the Equinox EV and $1,795 on the Blazer EV.
- 2027 Bolt: LT $27,600 and RS $31,600. Both are front-wheel drive only, with a 210-hp motor and a 65 kWh battery.
- 2027 Equinox EV: LT 1 $34,995, LT 2 $42,095 and RS $44,395 with FWD. AWD adds $3,300 on every trim (LT 1 AWD $38,295).
- 2027 Blazer EV: LT $45,000 and RS $50,800 with FWD. AWD adds $3,000 (LT AWD $48,000). The SS is AWD only at $60,700.
Starting MSRP by model
MSRP excluding destination. Gold bars are FWD; gray bars are AWD. The Bolt is FWD only.
With destination, the starting prices are $28,995 for the Bolt, $36,795 for the Equinox EV and $46,795 for the Blazer EV. That puts the Bolt $7,800 below the Equinox EV, and the Equinox EV $10,000 below the Blazer EV.
One catch on the Equinox EV LT 1 AWD: Build & Price requires the Comfort Package and Active Safety Package 2, so expect LT 1 AWD models to be about $40,295 before destination.
The Equinox EV and the Blazer EV LT and RS have the same motor outputs (220 hp and 243 lb-ft with FWD; 300 hp and 355 lb-ft with AWD) and an 85 kWh battery. The Blazer EV’s higher price brings a longer body, more cargo room with the seats folded, more ground clearance and standard HD Surround Vision, but not more power unless you choose the SS, which has a 102 kWh battery and 615 hp in Wide Open Watts mode.
Range and Charging
EPA rates the Equinox EV FWD at 319 miles, the Blazer EV FWD at 312 and the Bolt at 262. With AWD, the Equinox EV is rated at 307 miles and the Blazer EV LT and RS at 283; the Blazer EV SS, with its larger 102 kWh battery, is rated at 302.
EPA-estimated range
On a full charge, per fueleconomy.gov. Gold bars are FWD; gray bars are AWD. A Blazer EV FWD with the optional 22-in. wheels is rated at 283 miles. Actual range varies with temperature, terrain, loading and driving.
The Bolt uses less energy per mile than the other two. EPA rates it at 120 MPGe combined, vs 108 for the Equinox EV FWD and 104 for the Blazer EV FWD. EPA’s annual fuel-cost estimates are $650 for the Bolt, $700 for the Equinox EV FWD and $750 for the Blazer EV FWD.
Fast charging and Tesla Superchargers
Every 2027 model here has a native NACS port, so it can plug into compatible Tesla Superchargers without an adapter. Chevrolet lists the Bolt as 150 kW+ DC fast-charging capable, with a GM-estimated 10% to 80% charge in 25 minutes. For the 2027 Equinox EV, Chevrolet says you can add up to 80 miles of range in 10 minutes. The Blazer EV LT and RS can DC fast charge at up to 150 kW and the SS at up to 190 kW; Chevrolet hasn’t published a 2027 Blazer EV charge time.
2026 Equinox EV and Blazer EV models are on dealer lots. They use a CCS1 port and need a GM-approved NACS DC adapter, a $275 Chevrolet option, to use Tesla Superchargers.
At home, all three have an 11.5 kW onboard charger and come with a Dual Level Charge Cord that works with a standard 120-volt outlet or, at up to 7.7 kW, a 240-volt NEMA 14-50 outlet. Charging at the full 11.5 kW needs a professionally installed charge station. The Bolt uses a lithium iron phosphate battery, and Chevrolet recommends charging it to 100% regularly.
Size, Space and Towing
All three seat five. The Bolt is 169.6 inches long, about 21 inches shorter than the Equinox EV (190.6 in.) and about 23 inches shorter than the Blazer EV (192.2 in.).
Behind the rear seat, the Equinox EV holds 26.4 cu ft, the Blazer EV 25.5 and the Bolt 16.2. Fold the rear seats and the gap narrows: 59.1 cu ft in the Blazer EV, 57.2 in the Equinox EV and 56.3 in the Bolt, which also has an underfloor storage compartment of up to 4 cu ft. In back, the Bolt has 39.1 inches of legroom, vs 38.9 in the Blazer EV and 38.0 in the Equinox EV.
Ground clearance is 7.97 inches on the Blazer EV FWD (7.89 with AWD and 7.49 on the SS), 6.4 inches on the Equinox EV and 5.57 inches on the Bolt.
- Bolt: front-wheel drive only. Chevrolet says it is not rated to tow.
- Equinox EV: AWD on every trim for $3,300 more. Rated at up to 1,500 lbs; Chevrolet offers its factory hitch on the LT 2 and RS.
- Blazer EV: AWD on the LT and RS for $3,000 more, and the SS is AWD only. Chevrolet’s 2026 Trailering Guide rates the LT and RS at up to 1,500 lbs with factory-installed trailering equipment; Chevrolet hasn’t published a 2027 rating yet, and the SS is not rated to tow.
Tech, Super Cruise and Safety
Screens and phone connection
The Equinox EV and Blazer EV have a 17.7-inch touchscreen and an 11-inch driver display. The Bolt has an 11.3-inch touchscreen and an 11-inch driver display. All three run Google built-in, which requires a service plan, and include OnStar Basics for 8 years.
Chevrolet says the Equinox EV does not offer Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, and it does not list either for the Bolt or the Blazer EV. If you rely on your phone’s apps in the car, try Google built-in on a test drive.
Super Cruise hands-free driving
Super Cruise is available on all three models, but not on every trim, and it is standard only on the Blazer EV SS. On other trims it comes in a package that requires other packages, so the real added cost is higher than the package price.
| Trim | Super Cruise package | Also required | Total added cost | Price with Super Cruise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 Bolt LT | $3,255 | Technology ($1,695), Comfort and Evotex packages | $6,660 | $34,260 |
| 2027 Bolt RS | $3,255 | Technology Package ($1,195) | $4,450 | $36,050 |
| 2027 Equinox EV LT 1 | Not available | — | — | — |
| 2027 Equinox EV LT 2 | $3,945 (Active Safety Package 3) | Convenience Package II ($3,100) | $7,045 | $49,140 |
| 2027 Equinox EV RS | $3,945 (Active Safety Package 3) | Convenience Package II ($2,495) | $6,440 | $50,835 |
| 2027 Blazer EV LT | $3,795 | Comfort and Convenience Package ($2,495) | $6,290 | $51,290 |

| 2027 Blazer EV SS | Standard | None | Included | $60,700 |
Sources: Chevrolet Build & Price, ZIP 80226, October 2026. Prices exclude destination. “Price with Super Cruise” is the trim’s FWD starting MSRP plus the total added cost; the SS is AWD only.
Every Super Cruise-equipped model includes 3 years of OnStar One with Super Cruise. After that, GM says plans start at $39.99 a month, with discounts for yearly billing, and Chevrolet sells a prepaid plan that extends it to 8 years for $3,000. Super Cruise works only on compatible roads, and the driver must always pay attention. On the Equinox EV and the Blazer EV LT and RS it also supports hands-free driving while towing, though GM says Turn Signal Activated Lane Change and Automatic Lane Change are not available while trailering.
Safety features and ratings
Adaptive Cruise Control, Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Zone Steering Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Braking are standard on all three. HD Surround Vision is standard on the Blazer EV and the Equinox EV LT 2 and RS, and available on the Equinox EV LT 1 and the Bolt.
NHTSA has not rated any of the 2027 models yet, including the Bolt, which is sold only as a 2027. The 2026 Equinox EV earned five stars overall with FWD and AWD, and the 2026 Blazer EV AWD earned five stars overall (the FWD was not rated overall). IIHS rates the Blazer EV (2024–27 models; headlights 2025–27) Good in the updated moderate overlap and side tests and Acceptable in the small overlap test and for headlights, with no TOP SAFETY PICK award. IIHS has not rated the Equinox EV or the Bolt.
All three carry a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and an 8-year/100,000-mile battery and electric components warranty, whichever comes first.
