🔥 Big Chevy headlines right now
đź›» Next-gen Silverado coming soon
One of the biggest pieces of news is that GM confirmed a new-generation Chevy Silverado reveal is coming later this year.
What that likely means:
-
Major redesign for gas Silverado and Sierra
-
New tech + efficiency updates
-
Chevy doubling down on trucks even while pushing EVs
👉 Translation: Chevy isn’t abandoning gas trucks — they’re evolving both gas and electric at the same time.
⚡ Silverado EV is getting more serious
Chevy is clearly betting heavy on the electric Silverado lineup.
Recent updates include:
-
New Trail Boss off-road EV trim added
-
Up to 725 hp and serious off-road upgrades
-
Expanded trims beyond the original launch model
Also — engineers pushed a Silverado EV past 1,000 miles on a single charge test run (under controlled conditions), which shows how far GM is pushing efficiency and battery tech.
Even if you’re not into EVs, it shows where Chevy’s engineering focus is right now.
⚡ EV lineup changes + growing pains
Chevy’s EV strategy is moving fast — and not without hiccups.
Blazer EV changes
-
Chevy dropped the RWD RS version for 2026 to simplify the lineup.
-
Focus shifts to FWD, AWD, and the performance-focused SS trim.
Equinox EV + Blazer EV recalls
-
Some Equinox EVs recalled due to braking software issues with adaptive cruise control.
-
Small Blazer EV recall related to wiring harness affecting parking brake operation.
👉 Honestly, this is pretty normal for new tech rollouts — GM is clearly still dialing in the software side of things.
🔋 The Bolt is coming back
Yep — the Chevy Bolt isn’t dead.
GM confirmed production of a next-gen Bolt EV is moving forward as part of a multi-billion-dollar investment in U.S. plants.
That tells you Chevy wants:
-
Affordable EV options
-
High-volume entry models (not just big trucks)
👀 Smaller updates you might’ve missed
A few quieter developments:
-
Chevy working fixes for things like dashboard glare on the Equinox EV.
-
Software updates and Super Cruise improvements continue across the lineup.
-
Gas Blazer isn’t going anywhere yet despite earlier rumors.
🧠Big picture: Where Chevy is heading
If you zoom out, Chevy’s current strategy looks like this:
âś… Still committed to trucks (Silverado updates, new generation coming)
âś… Heavy EV expansion (Equinox EV, Blazer EV, Silverado EV, Bolt reboot)
âś… Off-road branding growing (Trail Boss, ZR2-style trims)
⚠️ Software and early EV glitches are still being ironed out
Honestly, it feels like Chevy is trying to balance old-school truck buyers with future EV buyers at the same time.
