2022 Chevy Trailblazer Review

2022 Trailblazer: Smooth, Seamless Performance

The purpose of the Chevrolet Trailblazer is to create a seamless on-road experience. There’s nothing jarring or choppy when you’re behind the wheel of this refined SUV. You get to speed easily, stop easily, turn smoothly, and will enjoy decent fuel economy all the while.

Engine options are as follows:

• Standard 1.2L turbo making 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque
• 1.3L turbo making 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque

As far as fuel economy, you can expect up to an EPA-estimated 29 city/33 highway MPG. Either a 9-speed automatic transmission or a continuous variable transmission will handle the gear changes. Front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive are both available.

2022 Trailblazer: A Usable Cabin

Practicality is often why folks turn to SUVs in the first place. The Trailblazer interior is a wonderful space to spend time.

Headroom measures 40 inches up front and 38.4 inches in the back. Legroom is good also, measuring 40.9 inches up front and 39.4 inches in the rear. Passengers of any size will find the Trailblazer to be a roomy, cushiony option. Five passengers can easily sort themselves into the available 98.2 cubic feet of total passenger volume.

So, how about cargo? All SUVs have to be able to store valuable belongings, right? Here’s what the Trailblazer provides:

• 25.3 cubic feet of cargo in the trunk behind the second row
• 54.4 cubic feet of maximum cargo when you fold down the second row

2022 Trailblazer: A Trim for Everyone

The Chevy Trailblazer isn’t a cookie-cutter SUV. You can personalize the model to your needs. The Trailblazer trim list looks like this:

• LS
• LT
• ACTIV
• RS

The loaded RS is the most aggressive choice, touting LED taillamps, a dual-exhaust setup with round polished tips, and 18-inch high-gloss Black machined-aluminum wheels. From the base LS trim, you still can enjoy niceties such as a 6-speaker audio system and 17-inch aluminum wheels.
