Going Electric: An Overview of the Chevy EV Lineup

Unlike other companies that have gotten cold feet about EVs, Chevrolet remains full speed ahead in its commitment to this automotive technology. By introducing new all-electric models and making big updates to existing vehicles, Chevy is establishing itself as a leader in automobiles that are eco-friendly and offer a great driving experience. At Parks Chevrolet Richmond, we have the latest Chevy EVs for sale plus used models, offering everyone the right combination of performance, features, and value.

Whether you’re buying your first EV or upgrading, it’s important to know which Chevy EV is right for your needs. This overview looks at all the new Chevy EV models currently available, plus one that is set for a comeback. From compact crossovers for daily commuting to reliable trucks for work and weekend adventures to the return of Chevy’s well-known urban subcompact, there is a vehicle you’ll love.

Equinox EV: A Capable Compact SUV

Chevy’s newest EV has proven to be a popular pick among drivers, solidifying the nameplate’s place as one of the best-selling EV options in America. Like its gas-only counterpart, the Chevy Equinox EV is a crossover SUV for the common person. It’s an affordable vehicle that manages to offer everything people need for daily city commuting and spontaneous weekend road trips.

For an entry-level model, the 2025 Equinox EV has a lot to offer. Its base front-wheel drive setup delivers 220 hp and 243 lb-ft of torque with an EPA-estimated range of 319 miles, getting you around town with ease. There’s also an all-wheel drive option with 300 hp, 355 lb-ft, and added traction for wet roads. The AWD Equinox EV can still travel over 300 miles on a full charge, so you’re never in the lurch.

Other highlights of the Equinox EV include excellent legroom and cargo space, comfortable seats, and plenty of great tech. How great? Every trim has a huge 17.7-inch touchscreen and 11-inch digital gauge display, Google built-in, satellite radio, four USB ports, remote start, and more. The 2025 Equinox EV also earned a five-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA for your peace of mind.

Finally, there are numerous packages to customize the Equinox EV with more of the amenities you want. Goodies like driver lumbar adjustment, trailering equipment, an AutoSense liftgate, a head-up display, 21-inch wheels, wireless phone charging, and even Super Cruise hands-free driving further elevate this compact SUV.

Blazer EV: Sporty Performance and Style

Do you want a midsize crossover that drives, looks, and feels more like a sports car? The Chevy Blazer EV has a racing-inspired heart beneath its SUV body. It can pose as a daily driver when the situation calls, but when you get out on an open highway, this model won’t hold you back.

While the base powertrains are the same as the Equinox EV, Chevy adds two more options to get your adrenaline pumping. The rear-wheel drive 2025 Blazer EV RS upgrades the single electric motor to give you 365 hp and an EPA-estimated 334 miles of range. Then there’s the all-wheel drive Chevy Blazer EV SS, which scorches the pavement with 615 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. The Blazer EV SS also has a sport-tuned suspension, Brembo brakes, giant 22-inch wheels, and a larger battery pack.

But you don’t need the SS to feel the rush. Every Blazer EV has a smooth-handling chassis with minimal body roll for tight cornering. It has plenty of front legroom to accommodate taller drivers while maintaining competitive rear legroom and cargo space. Higher trim levels offer amenities like heated and ventilated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a heated steering wheel. The 2025 Blazer EV is also one of the most tech-forward SUVs on the market, building on the Equinox EV’s loadout with standard LED headlamps, HD Surround Vision, and another USB port.

Silverado EV: Horsepower, Ruggedness, and Range

Sometimes, to get things done, you need the power of a truck. That power doesn’t go away when you go electric. On the contrary, the Chevy Silverado EV represents the next generation of pickups.

This battery-electric truck comes standard with a dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain that cooks in any configuration—and it goes far, too. The 2026 Silverado EV offers up to 605 hp and 605 lb-ft of torque with the standard-range battery pack. Add the Extended Range pack for up to 645 hp and 775 lb-ft plus over 400 miles of EPA-estimated range. With the Max Range battery pack, you’re looking at up to 760 hp, 775 lb-ft, and a range of nearly 500 miles for all-day driving.

The Silverado EV isn’t just a screamer, either. It has a towing capacity of up to 12,500 lbs and a maximum payload of 2,350 lbs with a six-foot bed, letting it do just about everything a gas-powered Silverado 1500 can do. It has a frunk for concealed storage, and there are even more available tech niceties, like Bose premium audio and an AC power inverter. The unique sloped front end and windshield distinguish the truck visually while improving the aerodynamics.

You can choose from several trim levels to maximize your road and trail time. There’s the diligent Work Truck, the more elegant LT, and the off-road-ready Trail Boss. Previous model years offered the athletic RST, and more trims could be added as Chevy continues to fine-tune its EV truck.

Bolt EV: The Hatchback Returns

On the opposite side of the spectrum, we are seeing a rarity in the automotive world. Chevy discontinued the Bolt EV subcompact hatchback following the 2023 model year as part of its focus on trucks and SUVs. However, there was such a public uproar that the automaker reversed course, and a new Bolt EV is expected to arrive early next year.

Although not all the details have been revealed for the next-generation Bolt EV, it will undoubtedly build on the original’s mission of being an affordable, easy-access entry point to the EV world. The vehicle is based on the Ultium modular battery architecture with a variety of range and charging options for different trim levels. It’s also expected to offer Super Cruise hands-free driving as part of its active safety package, and there is the possibility it could be available in all-wheel drive for those who spend more time on wet roads.

We’ll certainly have more on the new Chevy Bolt EV as it gets closer to release. In the meantime, there are many used Chevy Bolt EV options available if you want a high-value, city-friendly ride. It’s an efficient subcompact that’s also surprisingly fun, and its hatchback design increases cargo storage. The longer Bolt EUV adds more rear legroom for those who like to go road-tripping with adult friends or teenage kids.
