Chevrolet Blazer
The Chevrolet Blazer is a nameplate that has been used by Chevrolet on different SUV models over the years. The Blazer was replaced by the Chevrolet Trailblazer in 2001. The Blazer nameplate was revived in late 2018 for the 2019 model year. The Chevrolet Blazer is the brand’s flagship SUV in China, above the existing Tracker, Trailblazer and Equinox.
The Chevrolet Blazer nameplate has represented two distinct approaches to SUV design. The original Blazers were known for their rugged, off-road capability, while the revived Blazer shifted toward a more stylish, on-road focus. The modern Chevrolet Blazer appeals to those looking for a sporty and comfortable mid-size SUV, while the older Blazers have a following among off-road enthusiasts and those appreciating classic SUV design. As the Blazer has evolved significantly over its history, specific details can vary widely based on the model year and version, so it’s advisable to consult information for the particular generation or trim level you’re interested in.
Chevrolet Blazer Overview
In 2019, Chevrolet revived the Blazer nameplate, but this time as a mid-size crossover SUV, aiming at a different market segment. The Blazer is available in three trim levels: 2LT, 1LT, and LT. It is powered by a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 230 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. It is available with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The Blazer gets an EPA-estimated 22 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway.
The Blazer has a spacious interior and can seat up to five passengers. It also has a large cargo area that can hold up to 64.2 cubic feet of cargo. The Blazer is praised for its stylish design, its spacious interior, and its off-road capability. It is also criticized for its high price tag and its lack of fuel efficiency. Overall, the Chevrolet Blazer is a good mid-size SUV that is perfect for those who want a stylish and capable SUV.
