The New 2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Chevrolet Trailblazer Performance & Specs

This year, Chevrolet offers two excellent engine options to power your adventures in the Trailblazer. The base engine is an ECOTEC 1.2L Turbo that delivers 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque.

For those wanting more power, the ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine steps things up with 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of max torque. Both engines work with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission that delivers power to the wheels.

You will enjoy three drive modes with available all-wheel drive to tackle various road conditions. Surprisingly, both engines have the exact same mileage numbers from the 13.2-gallon fuel tank. You can expect 27 mpg combined. That's 26 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.

Chevrolet Trailblazer Interior

The interior cabin of the 2026 Trailblazer offers comfort beyond what you might expect. Passengers in the front get 39.98 inches of headroom and 40.90 inches of legroom. Those numbers go down a bit in the rear, but only slightly. Rear occupants will find 38.40 inches of headroom and 39.00 inches of legroom.

The standard fold-flat front passenger seat allows you to transport cargo items up to 8.5 ft in length. Storage space is abundant with up to 54.40 cubic feet of cargo space behind the front seats. Even with all seats up, you still have an impressive 25.30 cubic feet for groceries or luggage.

Convenience features abound throughout the cabin. For example, there is a Push-Button Start and Panoramic power sunroof.

Chevrolet Trailblazer Exterior

The Trailblazer stands out from other SUVs in the Chevy lineup with its bold stance and athletic profile. Two exciting new colors join the lineup for 2026: Apex Red and White Sands. These fresh options complement returning favorites like Mosaic Black Metallic, Marina Blue Metallic, Iridescent Pearl Tricoat, Cacti Green, and Sterling Gray Metallic.

For those wanting to make an even bolder statement, two-tone color options are available. They consist of one of the above colors paired with Summit White for the roof and accents.

Right above the beautiful dual exhausts, you'll find a Hands-Free Power Liftgate. Up front, Signature LED Daytime Running Lamps give the Trailblazer a premium appearance on the road.

2025 Chevy Trax Technology

Technology is seamlessly integrated throughout the driving experience with the Chevy Trailblazer. Modern features keep you connected and entertained no matter where your journey takes you. Everything centers around the 11-inch diagonal HD color touchscreen that comes standard.

Connect your smartphone instantly with standard wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto. No wires needed means a cleaner cabin and less hassle when jumping in for quick trips. We recommend upgrading to the available Bose audio system for the best sound quality.

Wireless charging adds another layer of convenience. Simply place your compatible device on the charging pad and power up without the clutter of cables.

2025 Chevrolet Trax Safety

Safety remains one of the most important considerations when looking for an SUV. The Trailblazer comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, six advanced safety and driver assistance features. Front Pedestrian Braking can detect pedestrians ahead and automatically apply brakes. The Forward Collision Alert also works with Automatic Emergency Braking. It will warn you of potential front-end collisions with vehicles you're following. When necessary, it can apply brakes automatically to mitigate impact.

Adaptive Cruise Control maintains a safe following distance on highways, while Teen Driver technology allows parents to set limits and review driving habits. Protection is further enhanced with 10 airbags strategically placed throughout the cabin.

LS

The LS trim level serves as the base model but offers an impressive array of features that make it far from basic. The exterior sports 17-inch Silver-painted aluminum wheels. At the back, the HD Rear Vision Camera helps you navigate tight parking spaces with confidence.

You can view the camera feed on the 11-inch diagonal color touch-screen display. This screen connects to a 6-speaker audio system with an amplifier that delivers clear sound throughout the cabin.

The 8-inch diagonal Driver Information Center screen provides important vehicle data directly in your line of sight. Even the base trim has a versatile fold-flat front passenger seat. The optional LS convenience package adds deep-tinted rear glass for privacy and sun protection. It also includes remote start functionality to pre-condition your cabin before entering.

LT

The LT trim level represents a step up in every way from the base model. First, the wheels are upgraded to 17-inch high-gloss Black machined-aluminum wheels. The Silver-painted front and rear lower fascias further distinguish this trim level. Silver-painted roof rails not only look great but add functionality for roof-mounted cargo. The deep-tinted rear windows and liftgate glass provide privacy and reduce interior heat buildup.

Keyless Open and Start lets you enter and start your Trailblazer without removing the key from your pocket or purse. Remote start comes standard on this trim without requiring an additional package.

For those in colder climates, consider the LT Cold Weather package. It includes heated driver and front passenger seats for quick warmth on frosty mornings. The package also adds a heated, wrapped steering wheel and shift knob for additional comfort.

ACTIV

The ACTIV trim takes all the features of the LT and adds enhancements focused on off-road capability. The 17-inch high-gloss Black machined-aluminum wheels come wrapped in all-terrain tires. Off-road suspension tuning and a functional skid plate protect the vehicle when the pavement ends.

Inside, the driver enjoys an 8-way power seat with 2-way power lumbar adjustment for perfect positioning. You'll also find a wrapped steering wheel and satin silver and chrome wrapped shift knob. Rear seat passengers benefit from a center armrest.
