Photo: Chevrolet GM is continuing its shift to Tesla’s NACS charging standard, and the 2027 Chevy Blazer EV is next in line.

The Blazer EV isn’t the first to make the switch. The 2027 Chevy Bolt is also set to use NACS, while the 2026 Cadillac Optiq was GM’s first EV to roll out with the new port.
