According To Reports, Chevy Will Discontinue The Gas-Powered Blazer In 2026

The Chevrolet Blazer will not be part of the American lineup for much longer. A recent report from GM Authority, citing reliable sources, confirms that the automaker is set to eliminate the gas-powered crossover following the 2025 model year.

Sales of the popular crossover, the Chevy Blazer, experienced a significant decline last year, falling by 20 percent compared to 2023. In its second model year, the Blazer reached impressive sales figures, with nearly 95,000 units sold, marking the peak of its popularity.

Unfortunately, since that initial surge, the Blazer has struggled to replicate that level of success. The vehicle made its U.S. debut in 2019, combining stylish design with versatile features, yet it has recently faced challenges in maintaining consumer interest and robust sales figures.





A Chevy spokesperson declined to comment on the report, saying only the company had no portfolio changes to share.

Chevy produces the Blazer at its Ramos Arizpe plant in Mexico, alongside a range of electric vehicles from General Motors, including the Chevrolet Blazer EV, Equinox EV, and Cadillac Optiq, as well as the Honda Prologue. In a recent report, Automotive News announced that GM has streamlined operations by reducing the factory’s shifts from three to two, optimizing efficiency and productivity.

In January 2023, Mexico’s Economic Ministry made it clear that General Motors (GM) would transition to producing only electric vehicles at its facility starting in 2024. However, that deadline has been missed. The Chevrolet Blazer, which shares a platform with the Cadillac XT5 and XT6, is facing the possibility of being cut after 2025, according to reports from GM Authority.
