For this 2025 Chevy Blazer EV review, we noticed a bold first impression with its massive 17.7-inch infotainment screen dominating the dashboard. This huge display isn’t just for looks — it’s the control center for nearly everything in the car, including voice assistants, navigation, and entertainment.
I spent a full week testing the Blazer EV on road trips and commutes, focusing on one thing: how well Alexa and Google Assistant work in a fully electric SUV. The results were impressive — and surprisingly fun.
Alexa in the 2025 Chevy Blazer EV
Alexa integration is one of the highlights of the Blazer EV’s tech package. After enabling hands-free voice activation, you can just say “Alexa” anywhere in the car — no button presses required.
This made the driving experience incredibly convenient. Passengers could ask Alexa for weather updates, request specific songs, or find out how far we had to drive. The voicebot even displays the artist, song title, and album cover on the main display when music is playing.
Alexa can also:
- Provide turn-by-turn navigation on the center screen
- Adjust the climate control by setting a specific temperature
- Control audio volume
- Answer trivia questions, tell jokes, and more
For families, this feature is a game-changer. Rear passengers can stay entertained, and the driver never needs to take hands off the wheel.
Google Assistant in the 2025 Blazer EV
While Alexa is excellent, Google Assistant feels more deeply integrated with the Blazer EV. It performs all of Alexa’s basic functions — navigation, music playback, volume control — but adds more vehicle-specific commands.
For example, you can ask Google Assistant about:
- EV range
- Tire pressure
- Vent control (turning airflow up or down)
This deeper integration makes it clear that GM designed Google Assistant as the primary voice assistant for the Blazer EV. While Apple CarPlay is no longer supported in this model, I rarely missed it because Google handled nearly everything I needed.
Final Thoughts: The Best Voice Assistant in an EV?
The 2025 Chevy Blazer EV sets a high bar for in-car voice technology. Both Alexa and Google Assistant worked flawlessly during my tests, making road trips easier and more interactive.
If you want a modern EV with a massive display, advanced Google integration, and Alexa support for your smart home and playlists, the Chevy Blazer EV delivers. The lack of CarPlay might be a drawback for iPhone users, but for most drivers, as we found in our Chevy Blazer EV review, the tech experience is one of the best in its class.
