2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Five trim levels are available for this year's Trailblazer. The lineup starts with the L trim, which comes with appearance elements such as 16-inch steel wheels, signature LED daytime running lamps, and halogen headlamps and taillamps. Higher trims are the LS, LT, ACTIV, and RS. With these higher trim levels, you can look for stylish and functional features like 17- or 18-inch wheels, LED lighting elements, roof-mounted side rails, and deep-tinted glass. Some trims are also available with front and rear splash guards, a hands-free programmable liftgate, a keyless entry pad, and a panoramic power sunroof.

Standard for the Trailblazer is a 1.2-liter turbo engine that puts out 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque. If you go with one of the higher trims, you'll find a 1.3-liter turbo engine under the hood. This block generates up to 155 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. No matter which of these capable engines you choose, it will come mated to a continuously variable transmission, although you can get a nine-speed automatic transmission if you upgrade the drivetrain.

Front-wheel drive is standard across the lineup, but for a better grip on the road, you can upgrade to the all-wheel-drive system. With auto start/stop technology on every engine, you'll enjoy improved fuel efficiency. If you plan to take your Trailblazer off-roading, go with one of the trims that feature off-road suspension tuning for better handling on rough terrain. When properly equipped, this SUV can tow up to 1,000 pounds.

Take your place behind the wheel of this exceptional Chevrolet and find yourself surrounded by comfort and convenience. Even at the base trim level, you'll find features such as a four-speaker audio system, a 60/40 split-folding rear bench seat, rear cargo lighting, and cloth seat trim. Higher trims offer more comforts and conveniences like leatherette seat trim, remote start, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, and heated front seats. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration let you connect your phone to the Trailblazer so you can access your playlists and other useful apps when you're on the go.

The 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer will keep you and your passengers safe out on the road thanks to its array of driver-assist technologies. Standard safety features include forward-collision alert, automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist with lane-departure warning, a following distance indicator, and automatic high beams. If you have a teenage driver in the house, the Teen Driver tech will help you monitor their driving habits and set limits for things like speed and radio volume to help keep them safe when they're first learning to drive. A rearview camera is also standard and will help you see what's behind you when you're backing up.
