I always like the redline reviews because of the honesty about the good and the not so good of each vehicle and the performance of each in real world driving situations. Good review as always.
Fun Fact: The Zeus Bronze Metallic paint featured on this TrailBlazer is the same color offered on the new C8 Corvette... although I'm not sure if that's that impressive of a Fun Fact...
Fun Fact: The reason the pocket on the back of the passenger front seat is weird and different than the driver's seat is because the passenger one folds flat and has a hard plastic backing accordingly... also I look pregnant from eating too much spaghetti.
In this active trim it's actually pretty capable off-road also surprisingly. TFL took it up one of their off-road challenge courses and it made it up all of it with little difficulty. And it was running on these exact sort of fake off-road tires. Pretty damn impressive. Can't believe how much room there is for such a small car.
The reason why they don’t offer auto up is cost cutting but that’s for good reason. To get auto up feature you have to incorporate pinch sensors and those cost money. That’s why you are auto down but only up on front 2 or just the drivers side. Love your vids. Keep up the great work.
Funny how in Europe everything but the absolute cheapest cars get auto up windows. In US for some reason people tolerate getting shafted when it comes to all these little features
The right side map pocket is higher because the front passenger seat can fold forward flat so the back passenger can put their legs up or use it for long cargo.
The front passenger seat has the higher mounted map pocket because the front passenger seat folds flat. Also, all of the windows are auto down because you can hold the unlock button on the key fob and all of the windows go down.
Great review man! Just got a 2024 trailblazer LS in FWD with the 1.3 turbo gotta say quite impressed! Especially with rear seat leg room I’m 5’9 and can sit behind myself comfortably. Overall definitely consider the trailblazer if you’re in the market
Right? That last little Mitsubishi Mirage hatch is 3 cylinders. My coworker bought one for her daughter about two years ago. I didn’t even know it was such a thing as a 3 cylinder car until she told me.
@@raptor9088 so? 3 cylinders still work fine for a supercar. New Ford Escape also has a 3-cylinder engine. I drove both new Trailblazer and a new Ford Escape, both are fine. Can't feel any difference from 4 cylinders.

Anyone looking at this thing test drive new Equinox/Terrain instead. Much better crossovers with better engines and handling for the same price considering discounts.
It’s ironic that people buy the GM badge to “ buy American “ but Chevys are actually Isuzu, Daewoo ( in this case) and Suzuki. Chevy builds the Camaro, Vette and body on frame truck/SUV and nothing else.
The small CUV market is now heading well into that mass anonymity that sedans are in. Can't tell the difference between this and all the other same looking ones now.
5:35 tinny? id say thin or papery but tiny idk about that tinny to me implys metal to metal like an old 69 c20 with no door gasket. that's more "tinny" not disagree with you just on phrasing...
I remember the older trailblazers back when that name meant something. This is... similar to when Mitsubishi killed off the eclipse and brought back the name... as a crossover. A crossover not worthy of the name. It's probably not as bad as I think it is, but I just don't care for CVT.
This thing looks decent with all the bells and whistles but if I'm gonna spend high 20's I'll take a CR-V with a 4 cylinder turbo, more space, more power, better resale value and generally higher quality.
Never owned a recent domestic brand but this is a very nice looking CUV. For the price I would go with a Mini instead but Chevy did a great job designing it
Where is this car made? Car factories don't look far when sourcing tires, and those Hankook tires makes me suspect this car came out of the GM plant in Korea that used to be Daewoo's.
You are completely right. And this was not even the top of the line model. This vehicle is in the same class at the Nissan Kicks, 24 grand fully loaded, the Hyundai Venue, 23 grand fully loaded, Hell my 2017 Nissan Juke Nismo R was 28 grand fully loaded. And I got 215 hp 1.6 turbo 4 wheel drive alcatera headliner Recaro sportbuckets etc. Had it for 70 thousands miles, no issues. GM has lost its collective mind on the MSRP. Especially since this vehicle is made in Mexico or is it China? Can't really tell anymore with GM. At 32 grand they should have dropped The Bolt drive train and battery pack in it. That would make more sense.
if you just press the button once, and i mean once, it stays on until you turn it off, and it is in AWD, it is actaully better than most AWD systems because usually it is a computer doing the work, whereas this button makes it a full time system.
Did anyone notice that this was filmed in two different settings? One with olive colored shorts with shoes on, then another with blue shorts and flip-flops? Maybe I just pay attention to the smallest details
Wait, how is this thing getting just 30mpg on the highway? My car has a V6 biturbo with nearly 400hp and gets 29mpg on the highway...and it weighs almost 4,000lbs.
why are so many obsessed with the top of the dash being soft touch material? All new vehicle seats are hard/firm in the beginning. Over time they'll soften up some.
@Daniel Zhang If they wouldn't have let the products get so stale it could have sold better. The engines were pretty solid. If they would have put more into the rest of the vehicle Pontiac probably would have fared better. A new Pontiac Grand Prix with a Supercharged 5.3LS could have gave a Charger a run for the money.
I like this car design is good and size is perfect not too big and not too small.I wish they build inside like Audi E tron dash board. Any at perfect size.
I like it, but I don't see how it will be able to compete with the upcoming 2.5 liter turbo charged Mazda CX-30, which will slot in close to the top price of the Trail Blazer.
It's sad to see that the trailblazer became a unibody suv insteas of body on frame like the old one. This car is probably great for people who live in places with tight parking.
LOL- I bought my fully loaded 2015 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X, a body on frame off-road SUV with shift on the fly four-wheel drive for less than $31K back in late 2014. Has leather seating, great stereo, reverse camera, heated seats, etc. It's been faultless now at 75,000 miles. It has a 4.0L V6 engine which was made in USA. Just drove it on a 4,100 mile round trip from Vegas to Indiana, and blasted through a snowstorm on I-70 in the Rockies where semi trucks were required to install chains. It's run perfect in 15 below zero Ohio winter weather (coldest February in Ohio history in 2015) and now 115 degree Vegas summer weather. It would crush this Korean pile into dust. Garbage Manufacturing is making a killing on this junk!
Moe Anthony not really considering it’ll have the best acceleration, handling, most standard features and have the nicest interior by far in the segment
GM took this segment to a different level altogether. This is arguably the best looking SUV out of the bunch.

@@UProductions457 Please list them. I know GM far too well. Yes maybe trucks and suvs because of their engines. 3.8l for cars was about it.
Ready for the rental fleet and not much else.
why are so many obsessed with the top of the dash being soft touch material? All new vehicle seats are hard/firm in the beginning. Over time they'll soften up some.
I love it but they shouldn’t have called it a trailblazer...they should’ve came up with a new name for it.
i am honestly still not really a huge fan of GM, buy their fit and finish in their newer cars seem better than back in the 1990s
I bet all black wirh white would look well. But that bronce with white isn't cutting it.
3 cylinder engine buzz, 25mpg, 9.5 seconds 0-60, high price tag.
Why is this being sold?
The words Chevy and least expensive bring shivers down my spine.
what is the point of having both the trax and trailblazer? the size difference is small
I really don't understand why Buick is still around. I'd go Chevy or Cadillac.
@Daniel Zhang wouldn't that be GMC?
@Daniel Zhang you realize how confusing that is. There should be just Toyota (chevy) and lexus (Cadillac) distinction
Buick sells well in China. But I agree. I wish Chevy would have saved Pontiac instead and used it as a performance competitor to Dodge.
@@BCCHSMD yes! Pontiac would have done great as just performance
@Daniel Zhang If they wouldn't have let the products get so stale it could have sold better. The engines were pretty solid. If they would have put more into the rest of the vehicle Pontiac probably would have fared better. A new Pontiac Grand Prix with a Supercharged 5.3LS could have gave a Charger a run for the money.
This video was helpful; it's a little mall shopping bug. Definitely going Chevy truck instead.
I like this car design is good and size is perfect not too big and not too small.I wish they build inside like Audi E tron dash board. Any at perfect size.
Don't know anyone talking so fast like you ✌️🤗 like always 'crisp' great rewiev, keep up mate😁💪
Nice looking vehicle, but the 3-cylinder engine doesn't cut it for me.
why?
This has vibes of that discontinued Toyota SUV. What was it called??
FJ Cruiser?
@@KuzcosPoison yep
I like it, but I don't see how it will be able to compete with the upcoming 2.5 liter turbo charged Mazda CX-30, which will slot in close to the top price of the Trail Blazer.
GM should've named it something else. They keep ruining well known model names of the past.
What a joke! I wouldn't pay 10k for this crap
😂😂
😂 😂 😂 😂
Its a cheap car what you expect mercedes level of quality lmao you dumb kid
You have a scion as your pic you can't even speak both this car and yours are junk
It's sad to see that the trailblazer became a unibody suv insteas of body on frame like the old one. This car is probably great for people who live in places with tight parking.
body on frame will not sell because
A. it is not as safe as unibody.
B. it rides a lot harsher.
Conclusion: Unibody does BOF a lot better.
That an earthquake at 4:50?
LOL- I bought my fully loaded 2015 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X, a body on frame off-road SUV with shift on the fly four-wheel drive for less than $31K back in late 2014. Has leather seating, great stereo, reverse camera, heated seats, etc. It's been faultless now at 75,000 miles. It has a 4.0L V6 engine which was made in USA. Just drove it on a 4,100 mile round trip from Vegas to Indiana, and blasted through a snowstorm on I-70 in the Rockies where semi trucks were required to install chains. It's run perfect in 15 below zero Ohio winter weather (coldest February in Ohio history in 2015) and now 115 degree Vegas summer weather. It would crush this Korean pile into dust. Garbage Manufacturing is making a killing on this junk!
Hello Daewoo!
Once the cx 30 with the 2.5 t comes out no point buying anything else in the segment
Still will be overpriced
Moe Anthony not really considering it’ll have the best acceleration, handling, most standard features and have the nicest interior by far in the segment
Why is the smaller trax more expensive?
well the Trax's starting price is more but the trailblazer offers more trim level and can get more expensive
This rides on the VSS-F GM platform, Sofyan, it's not a Korean platform but it is assembled in South Korea.
I would rather buy a 2021 crosstrek. It is much handsome and more reliable.
Subarus are junk
@@andym1223 at least it's better than a 3 cylinder.
Well, i like how it looks. But the three cylinder turbo is not a good idea
why not? it works perfectly fine for what this is designed for, and it is lighter which means you dont need more power to move more engine.
@@auronhennessy2755 hopefully you are right. I have a Trax with a turbo 4 and it is extremely slow. Still i would rather have the Trailblazer
5:35 the sound of the door shuttling sounds like a fart?
