The heritage favorite Chevy Blazer is being converted into an EV General Motors Company (GM) vision of an all-electric future. The news comes after GM’s CFO said the automaker has hitting an inflection point with the expansion of its EV strategy.

GM is investing $35 billion between 2020 and 2025 to increase production of electric vehicles and gain market share. The automaker is also working to secure important EV resources for its electric growth strategy.

For example, GM has “binding agreements” covering all raw materials for electric vehicle batteries 1 million annual capacity until 2025.

Chevy will be critical in GM’s transition to an all-electric future. The company currently offers Chevy Boltwith an EPA-estimated range of 259 miles, and Chevy Bolt EUVelectric SUV with an EPA-estimated range of 247 miles.
