The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV has a quirky $4k discount for Tesla drivers
Chevy is offering a $4,000 discount for owners and lessees of Teslas and other EVs for the 2024 Blazer EV but with some quirky conditions.
Chevrolet’s conquest bonus cash offer doesn’t require a trade-in and can be transferred to household members, so that’s nice.
The $4,000 discount applies to both 2024 Chevy Blazer EV leases and purchases and according to CarsDirect, it can be stacked with other deals, such as the $7,500 tax credit and the $1,000 Costco member-only incentive.
Chevy also offers a $2,500 EV Loyalty Cash Allowance for current owners or lessees of a 2017 or newer Chevy Bolt or Bolt EUV.
All of that adds up to a nice price reduction for an EV with a base price in the mid-$50s.
But here’s where it gets a little quirky. As for which EVs you or your household members drive to qualify for the $4,000 discount, Tesla, of course, is on the list. So are Lucid, Rivian, and Fisker. CarsDirect notes that the Honda Fit EV qualifies, but the Hyundai IONIQ Electric doesn’t. Okayyy. So you’ll have to check with a dealer for your EV’s eligibility.
The $4,000 offer is also only being offered in what seems to be a somewhat random list of cities:
- Albuquerque
- Birmingham, Alabama
- Charleston, West Virginia
- Charlotte
- Chicago
- Dallas
- El Paso, Texas
- Greensboro, North Carolina
- Greenville, South Carolina
- Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
- Huntsville, Alabama
- Jacksonville
- Little Rock
- Mobile, Alabama
- Norfolk, Virginia
- Orlando
- Richmond, Virginia
- San Antonio, Texas
- San Francisco
- Savannah, Georgia
- Tampa
- Washington, D.C.
So if you want this deal and you don’t live in any of the above, then a road trip may be on the cards. (Atlanta and Santa Fe folks, I’m looking at you.)
And if that’s not possible, you’re not out of luck. If you want to lease, Chevy is offering $3,250 in lease cash for the Blazer EV in other parts of the US, and that’s open to everyone, regardless of what you or your household members drive.
The $4,000 conquest bonus cash deal is available from May 1 to June 3, 2024.

Trump says he wants to negotiate a nuclear deal with Iran after imposing ‘maximum pressure’
Vammo, a battery-swapping service for electric motorcycles in Latin America, has just announced that the company has surpassed an impressive 1 million battery swaps in a little over a year.
The company has built its service around a combination of VMoto electric motorcycles and a battery-swapping service designed to keep those motorcycles rolling all day without stopping to charge.
Headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, Vammo’s electric motorcycles and battery swap cabinets currently serve around 1,800 customers, with that number growing quickly. The service was launched just over a year ago and has already saved its customers a combined US $1.3 million in fuel costs. That’s on top of preventing the release of 3,050 tons of CO2 emissions.
Vammo’s subscription model saves users as much as 50% compared to gasoline-powered motorcycles, translating into annual savings of thousands of dollars. “Not only are we helping to cut carbon emissions by 85%, but we’re also putting significant savings back into the pockets of our customers,” said Jack Sarvary, Vammo’s co-founder and CEO. “Many of our users, especially delivery drivers, are saving as much as $2,000–$4,000 per year, making electric mobility both affordable and sustainable.”
That success has led to rapid growth for the company. Last year alone, Vammo saw 8x growth in both revenue and customer base.
“Our growth demonstrates the power of affordable, clean transportation,” said Billy Blaustein, Vammo’s COO. “We are proving that sustainable mobility can be both accessible and scalable.”
Vammo’s VMoto models have now become the #1 registered electric motorcycle brand in Brazil, likely making the company the top player in Latin America.
Battery swapping for electric motorcycles has gained significant interest in the last few years, especially as Gogoro has expanded its world-leading model for swappable electric scooter batteries. But unlike Gogoro, which built a swappable battery standard and then began persuading other companies to adopt it, Vammo built its service around existing electric motorcycles and their already operational battery designs.
Vammo began operations in São Paulo and has positioned its service as a solution not only for Brazil but also for broader Latin America.
Brazil is uniquely suited for electric motorcycles and battery swapping, as the country not only sells 4x the amount of motorcycles per year as the US, but has some of the cleanest electricity in the world. Over 90% of the country’s electricity is generated by clean sources, primarily hydroelectric power, with wind and solar also contributing to the mix. Compare that to the global average of just 13%.
Vammo is building on its momentum, recently announcing a partnership with app-based taxi provider 99, offering mototaxi drivers access to its electric motorcycles.
