The Chevy Trailblazer has been around for two decades, but is the 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer still living up to the line’s stellar reputation? We certainly think so. This year’s Trailblazer is the first subcompact in the lineup, yet it retains versions of all the impressive features from all the past iterations of the model. We’re sure that you’ll be as impressed as we are.
1. Spacious Cargo Area
The Chevy Trailblazer is one of the few subcompacts on the market that has a surprisingly large amount of cargo space. It beats the closest competition by a few cubic feet. It has a total of 54.4 cubic feet of cargo space, and that’s with the vehicle’s second row and the front passenger seat folded flat. The longest part of this area is 8.5 feet long, so it’s perfect if you have a long box, a pole, or construction materials to transport.
2. A Delightfully Roomy Cabin
Competitor subcompacts suffer as far as roominess is concerned. Often, the back row is only suitable for kids. However, the Chevrolet Trailblazer can easily accommodate five adults. Each adult will have plenty of headroom and legroom. It’s easy to find comfort in the space.
Passengers will also appreciate the fine craftsmanship that went into the roomy seating area. The seats have the perfect amount of cushioning and support, and higher trims have even better seating than the already spectacular base model.
3. You Can Tow
Subcompact SUVs aren’t known for being able to tow, so the fact that you can tow at all is mind-blowing. Equip your Trailblazer with its 1.3-liter engine option, and then you can tow 1,000 pounds with ease. Most competitors can tow less than this, and some subcompacts don’t let you tow at all. The Trailblazer definitely stands out from the competition in that regard, and it’s something that we have to applaud.
4. Off-Roading Abilities
If you’d like to hit the trails in the Trailblazer, then you can definitely do that. The vehicle has all-wheel drive, and that makes it much easier to tackle beaten paths. All trim levels have the ability to go off-roading, although you may wish to consider selecting the Activ trim. The Activ trim comes with a suspension system that’s tuned for off-roading, so it’s the most suitable option for avid off-roaders.
5. Comfortable Handling
The Trailblazer is more pleasant to handle than its competitors. It feels more like a coupe to handle. It’s agile, highly maneuverable, and fits well into tight spaces. It’s perfect for getting around crowded city streets and winding country lanes. Regardless of where you drive the Trailblazer, we’re certain that you’ll find that the handling is highly beneficial.
The handling remains comfortable even when the cargo space is packed, and it’s still almost as comfortable and easy when you’re towing a 1,000-pound load. That’s a better performance than several competitors can provide.
