2021 Trailblazer Activ Jumps To June's Demands With Stellar Mileage, Class-Leading Urban Ability

When the Chevy Blazer came roaring back on the scene two years ago here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis, it arrived as an SUV that did not quite boast the off-road capabilities as its predecessor, but evolved into a savvy and sharp-edged daily driver. The 2021 Chevy Trailblazer boasts a bit squarer of a stance, and fulfills a comfortable slot just in between the Trax and Equinox to provide a capable and energetic rival for the rock-crawling Jeep Compass and frequently-braggin' Bronco Sport!

This 155-horsepower front-wheel-drive number now boasts increased ground clearance up to 7.5 inches on front-wheel-drive Activs and 8 inches with all-wheel-drive, situating it in the same size rung as the Jeep Trailhawk. The AWD system provides satisfactory handling, it grips adequately during cornering and offers a precise sense of placement as only a slightly smaller model can. Plus, the Activ has already turned many heads due to its keenly-lifted profile and ideally knobby tires.

Jetskis, ATVs, and camping gear all are items that make a trip more fun, and after the last year, who doesn't want to experience a high dose of the tranquility the outdoors can provide? The Trailblazer Activ can provide the ultimate in recreational rebound time with the towing package and its 1.000-lb towing ability, which is enough for a pop-up trailer full of toys to let the rock climbing, trout fishing, or inner balance session begin!

Inside you'll find a soft-touch dashboard insert and cloth trim on the door panels, and enough rear-seat legroom to feel as if you can spread out when the urge comes to experience a completely new urban surrounding. It was only around 5 years ago when safety features required a hefty upgrade, and buyers were still thrilled to put the best and most brilliant engineer's technology to work.

The Trailblazer now comes standard with automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and backup camera, with the option to add goodies such as wireless charging and Bose premium audio to bump things up an upper-end and exciting notch. We encourage you to look at baits and lure, put the Ipad down for a minute, and plan your next journey “near yet far”: this year's Trailblazer has what it takes to allow for a much-needed fresh air embracing disappearance!

GM Authority On 2021 Trailblazer Trim Levels: Each Trim Boasts its Own Set

Growing families and small business owners that come to see us frequently here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis while they are collecting their thoughts regarding a new vehicle purchase are drawn to Crossover SUVS. This category admittedly makes the most sense to many: it is practical, fuel-efficient, and still equipped for all-important outdoor duty when it comes to the lake for a weekend. The all-new 2021 Chevy Trailblazer was just featured on the GM Authority blog this week, and they put together a very comprehensive guide to the wheels, just as they did for the Corvette model last year.

Four of the five 2021 Trailblazer wheel choices are made of aluminum, while one set is comprised of durable steel. All the wheels range from 16 to 18 inches in diameter and vary in design and finish. The prime focus of the article was that every single trim level gets its own wheels, with the base L model getting 16-inch steel wheels with covers, the LS, LT, and ACTIV models getting various sets of 17-inch aluminum wheels, and RS models getting 18-inch aluminum wheels.

The gallery here shows plenty of detail, and our favorite is most definitely the 18-model that is seen on the RS trim. For the ultimate car geek embedded deep in all of us, there's a very detailed spec- layout of the RPO Code, Diameter, Material, Finish, and Trim Level that each wheel finds its home within. After a close look at all the available wheels for the all-new Trailblazer subcompact SUV, we'd say that there is an ample amount of variety and visual appeal to sway just about anyone!

 

What many new owners are finding out they love so much about the Equinox is its styling: the very bold proportions and sculpted design make it look modern and the grille sports more height than the tinier front ends of some of the competition. Passengers stay in optimum comfort with best-in-class rear seat legroom, and plenty of different spots to store what the need most on board. You'll get plenty of time to enjoy the Chevy Infotainment 3 System with 7-inch diagonal color touchscreen, AM/FM stereo, and Bluetooth audio streaming for two active devices, and voice command pass-through to compatible phone.

You’ll find the ultimate traction to meet your needs with included Normal, All-Wheel Drive, and Sport drive modes, and this SUV comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist as well as a long additional safety and driver assistance features that can help keep you safe while navigating where life calls you on the road. Now more than ever, having “report cards” generated on more than just your teen’s school performance hails safety as well. It’s great to know via Teen Driver Technology if those dearest to you have overstepped their boundaries, speed limit, or tailgating within the last day!

2021 Chevy Trailblazer Spotted by GM Authority Minus any Camo Cover

During the very exciting and high-tech luster of the Auto Shanghai show last April that had so many exciting models to gaze at and discover, the 2021 Chevy Trailblazer was revealed to the public. In November 2019 at the Los Angeles Auto Show was when the SUV graced the lovely Pacific Coast with the outdoor-oriented Active and sportier RS trims on display. The following photos offered up to us by the seasoned staff at GM Authority showed the Trailblazer RS trim out for a stroll on public roads, without the traditional obstructionist camo cover.

The upgrades you'll enjoy with the RS trim are mostly performance-flavored, as we asked what  customers wanted to experience and avidly listened. Even if the errands you are running may seem mundane, a little extra visual might and muster always provides some added excitement not just off the line, but while navigating through highway traffic that has not yet slowed to its nightly crawl. The RS trim this year sees a unique fascia similar to what is seen on the Chevy Blazer and Camaro, sporting a mesh grille insert, and very sharp styling lines. As you look lower in the fascia, you can see a one-of-a-kind splitter element, while black Chevy Bow Tie badging is added the back as well.

When you climb inside the RS cabin you also notice added red accents to the upholstery stitching, trim made specifically for the air vent, gauge pod, and center console. The roof has undergone a two-tone treatment, which is fitting against the white-and-black color theme of the RS. The Trailblazer RS comes with all-season tires to handle anything the Memphis roads will dole out to you with confidence, and power is derived from GM's new turbocharged 1.2L LIG 3-cylinder engine. It cranks out 137 horsepower, and 166 lb-ft of torque.

If you're on the hunt for more juice, you can opt for the turbocharged 1.3 L L3T engine, which boosts the power factor up to 155 hp, and 174 lb-ft of torque. You have your choice of AWD or FWD, with a CVT stowed away to take care of the FWD and the GM nine-speed automatic transmission for AWD models brandishing the upgraded 1.3L 3-cylinder variant. The savvy and always-in-the-know staff at Carbuzz.com also reported during the fall that SiriusXM with 360L will see deployment in a million of Chevy and GMC vehicles onward from the 2020 vehicle year, including the Trailblazer.

Ask us here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis about the available Remote Access Plan: here you acquire the added convenience of selecting your favorites through your respected mobile app without even needing to be sitting in the vehicle. Their chosen selections will automatically sync with the infotainment system the next time the vehicle is turned on. By having a close watch on connectivity patterns in vehicles, more channels and choices that were ever thought of before are available, and it is easier than ever to find the programming that is tailored to you!

Breakdown of 2021 Chevy Trailblazer's Lighting Elements Featured on GM Authority

It was back in November of 2019 when the 2021 Chevy Trailblazer was unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show, much to the delight of SUV fans who are looking for a midsize and feature-rich daily driver. This new crossover slots in between the subcompact Chevy Trax and compact Chevy Equinox in the current lineup, and draws a hefty amount of design inspiration from the new Blazer. The folks on staff poised and ready to provide the scoop at GM Authority cranked out a feature last week providing an up-close look at what each specific trim offers in the lines of lighting, and other features that will make you want to test drive a new one right here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis this January!

The five trim levels for the model lineup are L, LS, LT, ACTIV, and RS. In the front, there are three unique elements: daytime running lamps, headlamps, and fog lamps. Both halogen and LED elements are available, with halogen headlamps now offered as standard across the lineup, and LED headlamps appearing higher up the scale alongside the optional Technology Package.

Signature LED daytime running lamps are also standard across the range, while LED fog lamps come as standard with higher trims. When opting for the Technology Package, you also will enjoy the following benefits:

·        HD radio

·        Chevy Infotainment 3 Plus system

·        Bose premium 7-speaker Soundsystem

·        Sirius XM with 360L

·        Memory card receptacle

·        Wireless phone projection

·        Adaptive Cruise Control

·        HD Rear Vision Camera

·        Enhanced 4.2-inch diagonal multi-color display Driver Information Center

In the rear, the 2021 Chevy Trailblazer is equipped with LED tail lamps or Halogen tail lamps, with standard outfit determined by respective trim: the ACTIV and RS levels are where the LED tail lamps come into play. The ACTIV trim offers up a more rugged look, also boasting a two-tone roof, unique front and rear fascia, and sport terrain tires as well as suspension tuning enhancements. The RS quenches the thirst for those looking for something sportier, with a performance-inspired mesh grille sporting a Chevy bow tie and unique front splitter elements.

You also get the dual exhaust with circular tips, a nice touch with a more-than-fair element of flex. To stay seamlessly connected while on the road, the Trailblazer will allow two phones to be paired via Bluetooth at the same time, and optional SiriusXM with 360L will offer music minus the commercials, among other exclusive content genres. Standard active safety features on the new Trailblazer include Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and Automatic Emergency Braking. You can also add top-of-the-line safety and driver-assist features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Park Assist, and a High Definition Rear Vision Camera.

2021 Chevy Trailblazer Poised to Unveil Higher-End Luxury Features

Early 2020 is when the all-new Chevy Trailblazer is set to make its first appearance, fitting comfortably into the lineup between the Trax and Equinox. As the staff of Newswheel reported last week, it's not just the low sticker price that could sway buyers right here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis and nationwide and that it will probably sport some unexpected luxury features as well. The images you can check out here reveal what appears to be a ventilated seating button situated on the center console, which would give the Trailblazer some stride and swagger regarding the ever-present competition.

While ventilated seats may only be present on testing prototype models, they could find their way into the final cut due to the increased demand for comfort and luxury features. As you dig deep into your New Year's vehicle wish list and go beyond the smaller items such as socks and sweaters, you'll see that the Chevy Equinox Premier trim level offers ventilated seats, on top of heated rear outboard seats. It would seem to make sense to see this carry over to the Trailblazer, a vehicle that will be no stranger to inclement weather or constantly changing conditions.

To the far corners of Tennessee or anywhere else you choose to roam, the Trailblazer features a large amount of helpful navigation and assistance technology. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto have become staples and mainstays regarding what people expect for any new model, but we are very excited about the Chevrolet Infotainment System 3, another great additive that lets you stay seamlessly connected wherever you choose to explore. Wireless charging is also available, another feature that helps all your devices stay at peak potential without the familiar cord-dangling act.

Standard driver-assist technology onboard included front pedestrian braking automatic emergency braking, a rear-vision camera, lane-keep assist, and teen driver technology. Teen Driver is simply amazing: years ago, you had no way of monitoring those closest to you after school, on the weekends, or in the evening. The fact that it gives you a report card regarding location, top speed, and more is invaluable: those who just learned how to drive are sometimes going to not be honest about their whereabouts!

No matter how much a youngster does not enjoy having their every move watched, it ultimately will protect them from accidents and higher insurance rates in the future. We will keep you updated about this and any other luxury elements you might notice on the incoming Trailblazer and hope this holiday season is happy, safe, and peaceful for you and yours!
