Yes, or GM next gen OS not ready yet. GM seems to unveil about a year before production

They are targeting the west coast for this reveal.
Probably means I'll be disappointed by the amount of power it has.

What do you expect? I am thinking the SS Blazer will be over 400HP, AWD, 280 mile range and about $49999.

I think GM has been taking a beating on their available dates, when they miss slightly, like LYRIQ people saying LYRIQ is late because GM said "initial availability first half 2022" but the actual first delivery was July 14th... Might as well Lower the expectation to ease the pressure.
Do you guys think the Blazer will get batteries from Lordstown, or China? With the failure of the USA battery bonus legislation, I am leaning towards China, CATL cells to keep the cost down, and free up Lordstown production for Hummers, BrightDrop, LYRIQ

I notice the Blazer unveil is scheduled after the Home Run derby, think GM is going to advertise during the HR derby?

Will GM hit a home run? Blazer SS 2500 horsepower, 1000 mile range, and sell it for $500... Tesla fans would still find reasons to knock it....

If you really want to upset them, make it GM's first car with a Tesla connector for use on the supercharger network.

All kidding aside, it’s not Cadillac, Buick, or GMC products that change GM’s course or the US‘s EV attitude. Chevy is GM’s heart, and the US auto market’s. Chevy‘s are the every-man’s cars and trucks. Silverado, Blazer, Equinox are the make-or-break. US Chevy dealers, already primed on a decade of selling/servicing Volts and Bolts, don’t require the coddling GMC and Cadi dealers needed to convert service or sales to EV. The just need compelling EV product, at a knockout competitive price. Come on, GM, we old Chevy men are rooting for you. Knock it out of the park!
