2022 Chevy Blazer Is Rich With style, Built With Grave Detail to Visually Stun on The Street


Fitting in the comfy slot between the very compact Equinox and the 3-row Traverse in size, the Blazer nameplate was revived 3 years ago, bringing back what was one of the most unique blends of an early SUV and car with truck-like capabilities. Immediately here at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse, positive response may have been just a bit slow as the older 4X4 K5 and S-10 Blazer fans were just a bit “on pause” regarding their reaction. Offering various exciting engines and an array of new features, it found its popularity and true personality eventually, as its exciting stance and sporty manners were taken to.

The new 2022 Blazer is going to undergo a few minor and useful changes, while still providing a righteously edgy and aggressive SUV ideal for the driver who embraces this powerful and comfortable option. During this refresh, the element of comfort was to be fine-tuned, and the engine lineup may not see too much drastic change. The standard option is the 2.5-liter 4-cylinder, cranking out 193 horsepower and 188 lb-ft of torque. Moving up the ladder just a bit provides the 2.0-liter turbo-four, generating 237 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, also offering the convenience of All-Wheel-Drive.

The mid-size crossover is a breed of vehicle that is made to be perpetually on the street, and the original model it drew its influence from saw a bit of difference in persona. The original Blazer was destined for camping and outdoor activity from the start, and preferred to spend its spare time roaring around the outskirts of town on fire roads and trails begging for knobby tires and an extra lift. The current design pays homage to very sharp lines, slimmer headlights, and a larger two-tiered grille. 


You'll be treated to 64.2 cubic feet of overall cargo space, and the same great standard features in the cabin including an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, six-speaker stereo, Bluetooth audio streaming, four USB ports, cruise control, keyless entry, 18” wheels, and all-season tires. As you move excitedly up in trim level, you get to enjoy features such as wireless smartphone charging, rear-park assist, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, lane change alert with blind-spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, lane change alert with blind spot monitoring, rear camera mirror, adaptive cruise control, and surround-view parking camera system. 

When the weekend finally arrives and it's time to get further away from urban confines, the new trailer hitch guidance system with crane package will come in handy, and the turbocharged engine option adds premium power at a very reasonable price. The design parallels and striking resemblance to the Camaro do not necessarily stoke the same presence as the XXL “Wranglin' runaround” vehicle that it was in its early stages, but we know wholeheartedly that you're gonna love this modern crossover that displays cutting-edge character and a very taut, agile stance!
