A subcompact SUV with plenty of personality despite its size, the 2023 Chevrolet Trailblazer packs a lot of valuable features into a stylish package.

With Chevrolet's reliability under the hood paired with the cutting-edge exterior design, you can get the best of both worlds without compromise.

New paint options for the 2023 model give you even more opportunities to customize your ride.
The Perfect Ride For...
SUV lovers who need a space-saving ride that's not short on features. The 2023 Trailblazer is ideal for growing families that have to haul all the kids on some days and all the gear on another. Fold-down passenger seats and nearly 55 cubic feet of cargo space make this compact SUV great for anyone who needs to help friends move or bring home a big haul from the antique store. This compact SUV is practically designed for an active lifestyle, even if the majority of your weekly activity is a long commute to and from work. Comfortable passenger seats encourage friends to ask you to drive for future road trips. It's even teen-driver-friendly thanks to its combination of safety features and comfortable handling.
Drive and Handling
Two engine options help you find just the right level of power and fuel efficiency. The standard 1.2-liter engine offers 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque and is limited to the front-wheel-drive option. For the LT and Activ trim levels, an ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine is available that provides 155 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. It's standard on the Activ trim package for better responsiveness in fast-paced driving challenges. With fuel efficiency as high as 29 MPG in the city and 33 MPG on the open highway, there's no need to worry about fuel prices when hitting the road. Front-wheel drive is the standard drivetrain option for all trim levels except for the Activ, which comes with AWD. Other off-roading details on this trim level include sports terrain tires and skidplates to protect the undercarriage from damage. Three drive modes are available on all models, including a Snow mode on AWD vehicles. Don't let wet or gravel roads cause you to lose control when the Trailblazer adapts traction and steering controls at the touch of a button.
A continuously variable automatic transmission or nine-speed automatic transmission are the two main options on this model. Add on a hands-free liftgate to stop struggling with full hands when you need to load up your cargo area. While the handling is responsive and the performance impressive, it's truly the modern and stylish exterior that draws the most attention for the 2023 Chevrolet Trailblazer. No matter what you're looking for in a compact SUV, this model has something for you.

Automatic emergency braking helps you stop even when you don't notice a hazard, while forward collision alerts can save lives without interrupting your normal driving habits.
