Chevrolet Blazer EV home charger: charge time and which amps it can use
2024-2026 model years, 11 EPA-listed configurations
The Chevrolet Blazer EV accepts up to 11.5 kW of AC power from a home charger, which is 48 A at 240 volts (computed from the kW figure; the maker publishes kW only). Source: Owner-provided window stickers 2026-07-23 (kw confirrmations folder). It reaches that limit at 48 A, so any charger rated above 48 A adds nothing on this car. The AC charge port depends on the model year: J1772 on the 2024 model year. For 2025 to 2026, check the charge port door before buying. Adapters cover either direction.
Chevrolet Blazer EV home charger buying guide: chargers matched to it
The Chevrolet Blazer EV takes at most 11.5 kW from a home charger, which it reaches at 48 A. The lowest verified price for a charger that fits its charge port and reaches that rate is $336.33, for the ApexCharger MACH 1 Hardwired: 48 A, hardwired. No plug-in charger we track reaches it: on an outlet a charger may draw at most 80 percent of the outlet's rating, and the fastest plug-in option delivers 9.6 kW (10.2 to 12.5 h to full), from $179.00 for the MUSTART Level 2 J1772 EV Charger, 40 A (NEMA 14-50 plug, 21 ft cord, display). A higher-rated charger charges it no faster: the car caps the rate at 11.5 kW, so each of the 20 matching chargers rated above 48 A (from $389.95) delivers the same 11.5 kW at its rating as the ApexCharger MACH 1 Hardwired at $336.33. Spending less buys a slower charge: the MUSTART Level 1 & 2 EV Charger, 16 A (NEMA 6-20 and 5-15 plugs, 25 ft cord), 16 A at $129.00, takes 25.6 to 31.3 h to fill it against 8.5 to 10.5 h.
Selection rule, in full
chargers that fit this car's AC port directly, with a verified price, a published current rating and Level 2 charging. Each row is the lowest verified price among the chargers that meet its condition; ties go by name. Full speed means the current the charger delivers in that install (its rating when hardwired; plugged in, its plug-in limit and never more than 80 percent of the outlet, NEC 210.20(A)) reaches the car's 11.5 kW limit. No charger is ranked on quality, and affiliate links never change a row.

Charge time by charger amps
A charger's amp rating sets its power on a 240 volt circuit; the car then takes the smaller of that and its own onboard limit. Each row is one standard charger rating.
| Charger rating | Power at 240 V | Rate on this car | Full charge | Against the row above | Tracked chargers at this rating that fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16 A | 3.84 kW | 3.84 kW | 25.6 to 31.3 h | Slowest standard rating | 9 |
| 32 A | 7.68 kW | 7.68 kW | 12.8 to 15.7 h | Adds 3.84 kW | 22 |
| 40 A | 9.6 kW | 9.6 kW | 10.2 to 12.5 h | Adds 1.92 kW | 51 |
| 48 A | 11.52 kW | 11.5 kW | 8.5 to 10.5 h | Adds 1.9 kW | 50 |
Power is amps times 240 volts. Full-charge times divide the EPA wall energy for a full charge (98 to 120 kWh), which already includes charging losses, by the rate the car accepts. The comparison column reads the car's limit. The last column counts chargers in this database rated at exactly that current that plug into this car directly.
Port note: for the 2025, 2026 model years we have not verified which charge port ships on every configuration; check the charge port door before buying.

Charging the Chevrolet Blazer EV on a regular 120 volt outlet
A standard household outlet is Level 1 charging. On a 15 A household circuit it can supply 12 A for hours at a time, which is 1.44 kW: far below the car's 11.5 kW limit, so the outlet, not the car, sets the speed.
| Power from a 120 V outlet | 1.44 kW (12 A) |
|---|---|
| Full charge from empty | 68.3 to 83.5 h |
| Range added per hour plugged in | 3.6 to 4.5 miles |
| Range added in 10 hours overnight | 36 to 45 miles |
| Charging cord in the box | 2027 model year: included, one cord for 120 V and 240 V outlets (Dual Level Charge Cord, standard) |
The 120 V figures divide the EPA wall energy for a full charge (98 to 120 kWh) by 1.44 kW, and multiply 1.44 kW by the EPA range per wall kWh of the lowest and highest configuration, the same arithmetic as the Level 2 table above. EPA measures that energy on a Level 2 charger; the same wall energy is assumed on Level 1. The 15 A circuit's 12 A ceiling is the NEC 125 percent continuous-load rule (210.20(A)). Cord: 2027 from chevrolet.com. A model year not listed has no maker statement we could verify.
Chevrolet Blazer EV charge port by model year
| Model year | AC charge port | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | J1772 | Through model year 2024 every non-Tesla EV sold in the US used the J1772 port for AC charging. |
| 2025 to 2026 | not verified | Not verified for this model year: check the charge port door. |
The port is the one a home charger plugs into. A year with two rows has a trim or build split. An adapter covers either direction.

Lowest standby draw
Each list is named for its metric and drawn from all 176 chargers that plug in directly, priced or not. Standby draw comes from ENERGY STAR test data and is published for 88 of them.
Vehicle figures come from EPA fuel-economy data (2024-2026); the maximum AC rate is verified against the manufacturer's own documentation. Charger specifications follow the same methodology as every page on this site.
What a full charge costs
Electricity is the whole running cost, and it is the number that varies most by where you live. A full 98 to 120 kWh at the Chevrolet Blazer EV, priced three ways:
| Rate | Cents per kWh | Full charge |
|---|---|---|
| Nevada, the cheapest state | 12.72 | $12.50 to $15.29 |
| National average | 18.16 | $17.85 to $21.83 |
| Hawaii, the most expensive | 47.18 | $46.38 to $56.71 |
Rates are the EIA residential series, August 2026. Your own utility and any time-of-use plan decide the real figure.
The circuit this car needs
A home charger is a continuous load, so the National Electrical Code sizes both the breaker and the conductor at 125 percent of its draw. A charger matched to this car's 11.5 kW ceiling pulls 48 amps at 240 volts, which needs a 60 amp circuit rather than the 48 amp one the arithmetic alone suggests. That gap is where most installation quotes go wrong.
Of the 176 chargers that plug in directly here, 84 meet or beat the car's ceiling. Going above it changes nothing for this vehicle, though it leaves headroom for a future one that draws more.
