Nicole Wakelin of Boston.com was hot
on the trail of an exciting new-car release story this week when she was put on
assignment to give her thoughts regarding the 2019
Chevy Blazer. All-new for this year here at Chuck Hutton, it is solidly
celebrating the return of a heavily-followed platform. The original Blazer was
discontinued more than 10 years ago, and lovers of its rugged abilities have been
patiently waiting for its return ever since. Nicole stated clearly that this is
a Blazer that has been revamped with today's driver in mind, taking a bit of a
different approach than the original.
The design specifically aims for a vibe that is
very performance-focused, and heavy inspiration is drawn from the Corvette
and Camaro,
which can really be seen from a glance at the front. The base level L trim
features a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder with 193 horsepower, and 188 lb-ft of torque
paired to a 9-speed automatic, and also comes standard with front-wheel drive.
After a few steps up, there's the available 3.6-liter V6 brandishing 305
horsepower, and 269 lb-ft of torque together with all-wheel drive. There is
always the option to up the ante and add leather, providing more interior
comfort and upper-end appearance.
The RS trim is the sportiest of the bunch, and you
get the darker-presence luster of unique black trims, including the iconic
Chevy bowtie on the grille, more powerful V6 engine, and perforated leather
seats with red accents. This is the version that the Boston.com testing
staff spent their time with and found it thoroughly fun as well as highly
responsive on the road. This article had quite a bit of truth regarding the
fact that not every SUV can really live up to the claim that it's fun to drive,
as they are vehicles that are all about hauling people and cargo around, while
possessing a high dose of everyday practicality.
The V6 provides ample pep as well as power, and
the nimble feel of the new Blazer
is due to tight, crisp steering. Make sure you ask us about the Premier, which
is the luxury trim with sporty black accents and heavy dose of chilling and
ambient chrome inside. You'll also get to roll around in audio lover's bliss
with a booming and crisp 8-speaker stereo by Bose. Five passengers are seated
easily, and rear seats can slide forward to make room for more passengers or
back for more cargo. This is the 2019 model that Motor 1.com claims
“looks cooler by a mile than the dozens of other SUVs parked near it”, and we
guarantee that your family or business's needs will be met with ease while
cruising in savvy style and the best of safety and tech features out there!
