GM Will Loan Four Chevrolet Blazer EV Electric Cars to Lula and Alckmin for One Year, with Charging Infrastructure Installed by WEG at the Planalto Palace.

Electric Mobility has officially arrived at the top of the federal government. It was reported this Friday, 09/19, that General Motors (GM) will loan four Chevrolet Blazer EV electric cars to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Vice President Geraldo Alckmin.

The agreement, made on a loan basis, also includes the installation of charging infrastructure at the Planalto Palace, carried out by the Brazilian company WEG. The initiative reinforces the strategy of decarbonizing the official fleet and marks another step in encouraging the use of clean energy in the country.

How the Vehicles Will Be Used

The cars loaned will be used for official commitments of the president and vice president for one year. The loan, at no cost, may be renewed, covering both the vehicles and the chargers. According to GM, the measure reinforces the automaker’s commitment to increasing the presence of electric vehicles in Brazil and contributing to the reduction of carbon emissions in strategic sectors, including the government.

Blazer EV: Power and Technology

The Chevrolet Blazer EV is an SUV that stands out for its performance and technology. With a range of up to 481 km, according to data from Inmetro, the model delivers 347 hp of power and 44.9 kgfm of torque. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in 5.8 seconds, rivaling combustion sports cars.

In terms of charging, the vehicle accepts up to 190 kW of direct current (DC), allowing it to reach 80% charge in about 40 minutes. On alternating current (AC), the limit is 22 kW.

In design, the Blazer EV bets on sporty lines, 21-inch wheels, striking creases, and distinctive lighting, highlighted by the illuminated front bar and rear lights in a “Y” shape. The interior is another attraction: high-quality finishes, heated steering wheel, panoramic sunroof, premium sound system, and ample space, especially in the rear seat, in addition to a trunk capacity of 436 liters.

It is worth noting that this is not the first time electric vehicles have been incorporated into the official fleet. In February, BYD also signed a loan agreement, providing two electric cars for the Presidency of the Republic and another 20 for the Superior Court of Justice (STJ). The contract, valid until January next year, is part of a growing movement of rapprochement between the government and automakers to promote electric mobility in the country.

How the Vehicles Will Be Used

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

Scientists find in pigeons’ livers a possible “biological compass” capable of explaining how birds follow invisible routes through the Earth’s magnetic field.

US proposes extra tariff on Brazil for “forced labor” and raises alert about new commercial pressure against Brazilian exports

How remains of a 17th-century ship found in Finland turned into dresses: wood from the Hahtiperä shipwreck, buried for over 300 years, was transformed into textile fiber by Ioncell technology.

World Cup paintings can result in fines and even legal action in some cities, but many people still ignore this rule before the tournament.

Fishermen find a rare 127 kg substance inside a whale in Yemen, sell the “whale vomit” for $1.5 million, and become millionaires with the find in the Gulf of Aden.
