Just before this year's “legendary DAYTONA 500 race,” Chevrolet showcased its Blazer EV.R NASCAR Prototype. Although it didn't see actual racing, the prototype previewed tomorrow's electric race cars. Here's a summary of its key highlights.
High-Performance Electric Powertrain
Replacing the traditional V8, the Blazer EV.R NASCAR Prototype boasts an all-electric powertrain. Its three six-phase motors deliver around 1,300 horsepower and spin to a blistering 15,000 rpm.
Power management is handled by a programmable all-wheel drive system, ensuring accurate torque delivery. It rides on a modified Next Gen chassis equipped with track-ready suspension and Goodyear Racing Eagle tires.
True Race Car Styling
Based on the “road-going Chevrolet Blazer SS EV,” the EV.R's racing enhancements stand out. A broad body and prominent rear wing maximize aerodynamic efficiency, and its very low stance helps cornering performance.
Motorsports Innovation
The EV.R NASCAR Prototype serves as a testbed for cutting-edge technologies that will influence both future racing efforts and production models.
