2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV Ready for Patrol

As the future becomes more electric, with more local municipalities implementing carbon reduction plans and targets, Chevy is prepared to advance the market in all aspects. The all-new 2024 Blazer EV PPV has been created to help achieve state carbon reduction plans without compromising performance and capability for officers. Chevy is proud to offer the first pursuit-rated, all-electric Chevrolet after tailoring vehicles for law enforcement for more than sixty years. 

“Chevy’s commitment to meeting the needs of law enforcement is rooted in decades of cooperation with police agencies across North America,” said Ed Peper, U.S. vice president of GM Fleet. “This purpose-built electrified Blazer EV PPV will have excellent pursuit performance, the reliability of a Chevrolet and fast-charging necessary to be a high-performance patrol vehicle.”

Based on the upcoming Blazer EV SS, the Blazer EV PPV will be offered with specific police content including skid plates, police-rated tires, steel wheels and additional emergency equipment support. It will also have the capability for light-duty towing for items such as radar trailers, as well as the capability for bicycle racks when equipped with a dealer-installed Class 1 trailer hitch. Additionally, the Blazer EV PPV has a low center of gravity, thanks to the roughly 1,200-pound (544 kg) battery pack mounted low in the chassis. It also employs Brembo brakes based on the high-performance Blazer EV SS, which are designed to offer superior stopping power.

Many patrol cars spend a lot of their time idling, creating emissions from running a gasoline engine to support the electrical loads of a law enforcement vehicle. Chevrolet is utilizing the largest possible Ultium battery available for this Blazer EV PPV to support the electrical needs of a patrol car needed for law enforcement.
