2025 Chevrolet Blazer Overview

What’s new:

  • I am not looking forward to any big changes.
  • Part of the 2019 Blazer generation’s first appearance.

Making sporty SUVs has been very successful for brands like Jaguar and Porsche. The 2025 Chevrolet Blazer will have a design that is a lot like the Camaro. The Blazer handles well and has well-controlled body moves, which aren’t often found in midsize SUVs at this price point. However, it has some of the same problems as the Camaro. The trunk space is much smaller than in most competing SUVs, and the back seats have less headroom because of the sharp angles.

The Chevy RS badge isn’t just a cosmetic addition to the Blazer; it was first used on the Camaro. The Blazer RS has an all-wheel-drive system with a torque-vectoring rear differential that helps it grip better when speeding up after turning turns. The suspension and steering have also been tweaked to make the car easier to drive. As expected, it comes with a package that makes it look better. It has 20-inch wheels with black accents, a black grill, and black outer trim.

The Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and Honda Passport are two competitors that don’t use the Blazer’s performance tricks. They move more smoothly and have more space for people and things. The new Toyota 4Runner or Jeep Grand Cherokee are great choices for people who want the best off-road mobility or towing capacity.

Pros

  • Better quality of the ride.
  • SUVs can be handled quickly and easily.
  • The entertainment system looks good and is easy to use.
  • A strong V6 engine that can be added.

Cons

  • People in the back need more space.
  • More freight space than some rivals. 

 

Just tell me how to drive a Blazer. People like the Blazer because it’s easy to drive and can go fast. It took the V6-powered Blazer 6.6 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph. It’s a little faster than the Ford Edge and Honda Passport thanks to its four-cylinder turbocharged engine, but it’s still fast for this type of car. In addition to being quick to turn, the Blazer can also control its body roll.

But things could be better. The Blazer wants to be a sports car, but its slow and heavy steering and annoying torque steer make it hard to drive. Torque steer makes the steering wheel pull away from your hands when you press the pedal. Because the Blazer has a lower ride height than the Jeep Cherokee and Subaru Outback, the available all-wheel drive system can be used off-road, which is better for when it’s raining.

How does the Blazer feel in your arms? The Blazer has the usual amount of comfort on the road that you’d expect from a modern SUV. The ride is smooth and well-controlled but not too rough. The well-bolstered front chairs are comfortable enough to sit in for long amounts of time. Even though the back seats are the right height and angle, they are very flat.

The Blazer could be quieter; as you drive down the highway, noisy tires, wind, and traffic fill the car. If you want to talk to people in the back, you should be loud. The heaters for the seats are slow to turn on, and it takes a while for the climate control to warm up the car.

How is the inside? The Blazer is easy to get in and out of, but people bigger than six feet will need help fitting their heads in the back because the roof slopes down. Also, the back has just the right amount of arm space for two people. There is more room up front, and the seats and steering wheel can be changed to fit drivers of all types.

Another bad thing is that the settings could be in a more comfortable place. Some buttons and knobs don’t have clear names and are in the wrong place. Like the closely styled Camaro sport coupe, the Blazer makes it hard to see outside, especially from the front and back. It is suggested that you buy a Blazer with the blind-spot warning system that is offered.

What’s wrong with the tech? The Blazer’s tablet is easy to use and shows clear images. Smartphone connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is available, but the built-in system works very well on its own. There is a Bose sound system that works, but it could be more high-end. The sound quality is definitely midrange, and you can’t turn it up too much without getting distortion.

Voice directions have very strict grammar rules, and people often ask to be told something again in everyday speech. The Blazer’s high-tech driver assistance features work great.

What’s going on with storage? Most of the other trucks in its class can carry more goods than the Blazer. When the back seats are folded down, it can hold 64 cubic feet of stuff, which is a lot less than similar cars like the Hyundai Santa Fe and Passport. It’s hard to carry big things in the Blazer because the liftover height is so high. Still, its unique freight rail system can help keep things of different lengths and widths safe.

The bedroom is simple, and there is little space for personal items. The center desk is big and deep, but the door pockets are short and shallow.

A well-built Blazer with all-wheel drive and a V6 engine can pull up to 4,500 pounds, which is about average for a large crossover SUV.

How much fuel does it use? Our front-wheel-drive Blazer V6 test car got an average of 21.1 mpg on Invoices’ official mixed-driving test route. That’s less than the EPA’s estimate of 22 mpg for combined fuel economy, but it’s close enough to show that the numbers should be attainable in a normal drive. The Blazer gets a little less gas mileage than the average large SUV.

Does the Blazer have any use? The Blazer could be a better deal compared to other midsize SUVs because it costs about average, drives about average, has a nice but average cabin, and has less cargo space than other options. Besides being able to turn more sharply, it’s not much better than the others, but an SUV doesn’t need it.

The guarantee is still fine, though. Most rivals, including the Blazer, offer a standard warranty that lasts for three years or 36,000 miles and a powertrain warranty that lasts for five years or 60,000 miles. The Blazer’s plan is different from many others because it includes one free service visit in the first year of ownership and roadside help while the powertrain warranty is in effect.

It would be better if the Blazer moved more like the Camaro, which it was based on. Instead, it’s an SUV that’s a bit sporty and, unlike most of its rivals, can be fun sometimes. After taking off the big front grille and other unique features, the Blazer looks like any other medium SUV. However, the style does matter, especially in a class where a lot of people are anonymous.

Chevrolet hasn’t said anything public about the 2025 Blazer yet as of this writing. We will change our suggestions if something changes. However, based on the Blazer from the previous year, the base 2LT trim is the better choice. The 3LT doesn’t give much more, and most SUV buyers don’t want the RS’s extra power and aggressive style. Extra benefits are available in the Driver Confidence and Convenience packages, which are not required.

Different kinds of Chevrolet Blazer

Five people can fit in the Chevrolet Blazer, a midsize crossover. There are four trim levels: Premier, 2LT, 3LT, and RS. All models come with standard front-wheel drive, and all-wheel drive can be added as an option. The 2LT, 3LT, and Premier all have a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that makes 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The RS, on the other hand, has a 3.6-liter V6 engine that makes 308 horsepower and 270 lb-ft; it is standard on the 3LT and Premier.
