Chevrolet Blazer EV Police Pursuit Vehicle Will Cut Off The Desire Of Speeding Up

Based on the electric Blazer SS, the new Chevrolet will help out the police make those movie maneuvers the real thing in their job description. Well, pretty sure that Chevrolet Blazer EV Police Pursuit Vehicle will become itself a car to pursue… to own.
While the civilian version reaches its first 100 km/h in less than 4 seconds with its all-wheel drive powered by a 557 hp dual motor, reaching 878 Nm of torque, no info on the police version has been provided. But do expect to have those figures seriously boosted.
What we do know is that the car is powered by the biggest Ultium battery in the Blazer range and that it will be available both in rear and all-wheel drive. Chevrolet Blazer EV Police Pursuit Vehicle will feature Brembo brakes. As for the interior, it has been designed especially for the police’s needs, with enough space for storing all the necessary equipment.
Scheduled for the beginning of 2024, Ed Peper, GM Fleet Vice President, announced that it will have zero emissions, while also cutting off maintenance costs associated with the regular police fleet cars.
This isn’t the first time Ford is flirting with the idea of a police car. We have already seen it in Mustang Mach-E, which has been evaluated by the Michigan police in terms of braking, speed, acceleration, and others.
Police departments have already bought Mach-E, and New York City has announced that it intends to buy 184 units.
