Blazer vs Equinox
Since they did a silent roll out there isn’t that much info out there
The Blazer is bigger than the equinox so i’d assume that stays the same with the EVs
And yet, everything that I see online says this thing competes against things like the Ioniq5, EV6, and MachE
Which is the flock i’d bet the EQuinox EV will be pitted against as well…time will tell
