2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer Performance and Specs
The 2025 Trailblazer offers two turbocharged engine options that balance peppy acceleration with everyday efficiency. The standard engine is a 1.2-liter turbocharged inline-3 that generates 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. It's mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and comes in a front-wheel-drive configuration.
Looking for more muscle? The available ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine also produces 155 hp and 174 lb‑ft, paired with a 9‑speed automatic transaxle when equipped with AWD. Front‑wheel drive models use a CVT transmission.
Despite its energetic character, the Trailblazer remains fuel-efficient. The EPA estimates up to 30 mpg combined for the FWD 1.2L model. Opting for AWD with the 1.3L still offers solid numbers, with ratings up to 26 mpg city and 29 mpg highway (impressive for a non-hybrid crossover in this category).
Responsive steering, compact dimensions, and well-tuned suspension make the Trailblazer a joy to maneuver through downtown Milwaukee traffic or park on tight urban streets. The ride remains composed and quiet at highway speeds, so you'll have confidence and comfort when commuting or road-tripping.
2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer Capabilities
While the Trailblazer isn't built for
rugged trails or towing heavy loads, it confidently handles everyday driving
scenarios and light-duty utility. Its available all-wheel-drive system makes it
a trustworthy option in snow, sleet, or rain, ideal for families living in
Brookfield or Waukesha, where seasonal weather can turn quickly.
A ground clearance of over 7.5 inches gives the Trailblazer the ability to handle gravel paths, construction zones, or poorly maintained backroads without stress. The suspension is tuned for a balance of ride comfort and cornering control, ensuring the Trailblazer doesn't feel out of place on winding roads or pothole-ridden streets.
This SUV's versatility isn't just about where it can go: It's about how it adapts. Whether you're dropping the kids at school or loading up gear for a camping trip, the Trailblazer is designed to keep up with your lifestyle.
2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer Interior
Inside, the 2025 Trailblazer offers a cabin that punches well above its size class. It comfortably seats five with generous front headroom and legroom. Even rear-seat passengers will appreciate the supportive cushions and ample space. High-quality materials, modern design touches, and available leatherette seating create a refined environment, whether you're running errands in Glendale or headed out of town.
Cargo flexibility is one of the Trailblazer's strongest suits. You'll find 25.3 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats, and a full 54.4 cubic feet with them folded flat, making it easy to fit large items, sports gear, or shopping hauls from Mayfair Mall. The flat-folding front passenger seat allows you to transport items up to 8.5 feet long, a rare bonus in the compact SUV class.
Other interior features include an available heated steering wheel, wireless charging pad, and dual-zone automatic climate control, helping you stay comfortable no matter the season.
2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer Exterior
The 2025 Trailblazer makes a bold first impression with its styling. Chevrolet updated the front fascia with sleeker LED headlights, a sculpted hood, and a larger grille that gives the SUV a more assertive stance. A variety of vibrant exterior colors, like Copper Harbor Metallic, Cacti Green, or Mosaic Black, give drivers a chance to express their style.
Base trims come with 17-inch alloy wheels, but higher trims are upgraded with 18- or 19-inch options in machined aluminum or blacked-out finishes. Roof rails come standard on most trims and offer added practicality for bike racks, rooftop carriers, or weekend adventure gear.
Details like signature lighting elements, muscular body lines, and RS-exclusive accents give the Trailblazer a sporty edge, but maintain its approachable, everyday character.
