So, there are differences between the interior shown in the "Gen 7 Camaro interior" thread, but there are more similarities than differences. Main differences being the nut-grabber seats are absent in the Blazer EV and the shift mechanism is not Corvette-like in the Blazer EV, but the IP, the infotainment screen, the door cards are all the same.

More SS pics...

LT vs RS vs SS...

Notice that the RS and SS both wear Conti Extreme Contact DWS06

Trim levels, prices, and battery range...

Here are the Blazer EV trim levels with prices and range on a full charge:

1LT: Starts at $44,955. Gets 247 miles of range.
2LT: Starts at $47,595. Gets 293 miles of range.
RS: Starts at $51,995. Gets 320 miles of range.
SS: Starts at $65,995. Gets 298 miles of range.

Just have one thing to say. Well two actually.

The 190 kwh fast charging is the weakest link in the vehicle. Better than most other mainstream vehicles, but 250 kwh should be the bare minimum. But given Lyriq is also limited to 190 kwh, sounds more of an architecture issue than GM being cheap? Not GM's fault or the vehicles, but the supercharger network remains the biggest advantage with getting a Tesla. Though with Tesla seemingly getting ready to open it up, that advantage may be going away. Just a shame Tesla played games with the patents, etc because the Tesla connector is much better plug than CCS design wise.....

It is priced really well though. I would be interested in an RS if I didn't have a Model 3 and my mom didn't just get an Y.

SO GM did what Ford did and made the Camaro a SUV.
