My first initial thought. Hot Dang it looks good!

After stewing on it for a few minutes. The front end is a tad busy (surprising for an EV) but other than that based on what I can see here it still looks pretty great. That's good, considering that (in my opinion) the current Blazer looks pretty sweet and stylish for a mid-size SUV.

I don't know what it is about the Cadillac Lyric, but at first I really liked that thing, and now every time I see it just looks worse and worse. Without those top of the line wheels, I'm not even sure I like it. This 100% looks better to me than the Lyric.

Now....I don't see much reason (if any reason) the ICE powered version of the Blazer couldn't look exactly like this EV version. Will there even be another ICE powered generation of Blazer? I'd like to think so. I have little doubt this Blazer SS will be fast and handle well, but I'm also certain it will cost as much or more than a ZL1 Camaro. I'd expect it to be in the same category as the Mustang Mach-E GT Performance in terms of performance and price...and that thing starts at 65K.

Let's hope Chevy is smart and offers looks like this, at a less performance and less price point. An RS version that looks aggressive similar to this, but at least 10 - 15K less than my "guestimated" price is what is needed.
