2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer To Start From $19,995

The new Chevrolet Trailblazer will launch in the States early next year and will be available in five trim levels named L, LS, LT, Activ and RS.

Pricing for the base model, which packs a 137 hp, 1.2-liter three-pot, matched to a CVT and FWD, will reportedly start at $19,995, according to Car&Driver.  Standard equipment will include amenities such as the 7-inch touchscreen infotainment, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with the SUV riding on rather small 16-inch steel wheels in basic trim.

For the LS spec, you’re looking at $22,495 with front-wheel drive, or $2,000 more for the AWD version, which comes bundled with the 155 hp, 1.3-liter turbo-three. The LT will set you back $24,595 with the 1.2 unit and FWD, but you can also get the 1.3 lump with FWD, whereas the AWD system, available with the latter engine only, is a $2,000 option.

Those who want to leave the beaten path at certain times can choose the Activ, which brings larger grille, 17-inch wheels with a different pattern shod in Hankook Sport Terrain tires, dampers with a different setup and the 1.3-liter engine with standard FWD and $1,500 optional AWD.

Adding a sportier feel to the new Trailblazer is the RS trim, which gets the same 1.3L power unit, with standard FWD and optional AWD ($1,500), as well as a few extra styling cues, including a large mesh grille, black bowtie emblems, unique rear bumper with diffuser and dual exhaust pipes.

Standard safety features include the automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert and front pedestrian braking, with the lane keep assist, lane departure warning, auto high beam assist, reversing camera and rear seat reminder. Among other options available are a rear cross traffic alert system, HD reversing camera, rear park assist, lane change alert with side blind zone alert and adaptive cruise control.
