The rear bed of the Blazer, meanwhile, now holds the 60-kWh battery pack—which really removes a lot of the daily functionality of the two-seater SUV-truck blend. But this project was built to show off the tech, so keeping the components visible may have been a higher priority than squeezing them into tight spa

The Tesla Model 3 comes with 2 options that you can buy: an autopilot system or full self-driving capability. This is the future, now! However, you must not mistake it for a fully autonomous vehicle, as you still have to be aware and ready to take over should something go wr

Thanks to its advanced impact protection, the Tesla Model 3 got a stellar score of five stars in crash-test safety ratings. As it doesn’t have an engine at the front, the empty aluminum and steel at the front of the car draw the shock of a crash. Also, it received top marks in several other safety areas, such as its roof strength and driver-assistance sys

read this blog post from Evinsightzone 1977 K5 Blazer has received a conversion to an entirely electric drivetrain, replacing its original 400ci V8, which produced an anemic 175 horsepower from the factory that was routed through a three-speed automatic. Now, under the hood lurks a Bolt EV motor, providing 200 ponies and 266 lb-ft of torque to a four-speed automatic. The transfer case, driveshaft, and axles remain in factory f

But due to the lack of a rotating internal combustion assembly, other electrical components have been added including an electric power steering setup, an electric brake booster, and a conversion to electronic control for the gauge cluster that adds a battery charge meter in place of the fuel ga

The Tesla Model 3 contains 97 square cubic feet of passenger space, only best by the Lexus LG, Toyota Camry XLE, Lexus ES, and Honda Accord Hybrid. The cargo space of the Tesla Model 3 is 15 cubic feet, the second-highest ranked out of the competition. Combining both of these numbers, the Tesla Model 3 offers more passenger and cargo space combined than nearly every other car on the l

The majority of new owners won’t know the cost of maintenance or how often they’ll be required to carry out such maintenance on their cars. It even gets more puzzling with a new entrant EV. Hence, Ford’s decision to not offer complimentary maintenance for Mach-E could discourage prospective buy

Founded in 2003 by two engineers, the company's name is a nod to an electrical engineer and inventor Nikola Tesla. One of the co-founders, Elon Musk, formerly served as chairman and is the current CEO - add this to the list of things you didn't know about Elon . After a decade in the market, Tesla ranked as the world's best selling plug-in and the best-selling battery electric passenger car manufacturer based on the number of cars sold in 2019. Despite Tesla prices rising in China due to the slashed EV subsidies, the Tesla Model 3 is cheaper than much of its competit

Everyone in the automotive industry knows that electrification is the way of the future. Just look at the Ford Mustang Mach-E with 1,400 horsepower screaming through some drifts or Elon Musk's Tesla models as they dominate drag strips. Lucid's VP of Design Derek Jenkins even said that the Saudi Monetary Wealth Fund is hedging its bets with a $1 billion investment into the EV market, a serious sign of the changing times. Now, Chevrolet has announced a new pilot program for a potential electric conversion crate engine that will be revealed for the first time in a restomodded K5 Blazer at the upcoming virtual SEMA360 eve

Some have criticized this, but this allows you to change settings far more intuitively. Remember when people first criticized the touch-screen on mobile phones? Now, it’s on almost every phone out th

Over 90 percent of the system's parts are shared with the Chevy Bolt, including regenerative braking, battery heating, and cooling functions, and an overcharge protection kit. After renowned GM aftermarket builders Lingenfelter Performance Engineering tests out a training and certification program for the eCrate package, Chevy hopes to begin sales to the general public in the second half of 2

Yes, as we mentioned, the Tesla Model 3 has the ability to drive itself. It is not fully autonomous yet, but according to the American automakers, it will become more capable with time. It can drive itself, park, change lanes, and soon, it will be able to recognize and react to traffic lig
