2027 Chevrolet Trailblazer
2027 Chevrolet Trailblazer
Rear-seat air vents, a shifter on the steering column and a console with cupholders that fold away are some of the everyday changes inside the 2027 Chevrolet Trailblazer. Chevrolet also gave this small SUV a Z71 trim for the first time, built around standard AWD, an off-road-tuned suspension, an underbody skid plate and sport-terrain tires. Beneath it all, an upgraded electrical and software architecture lets Chevrolet fit more than 20 safety and driver assistance features as standard. Technology steps up too, with Google built-in with Gemini compatibility and larger 11.3-inch-diagonal and 11-inch-diagonal screens, while an AutoSense power liftgate joins the options. The Trailblazer remains one of Chevrolet’s two most affordable vehicles, a role it shares with the Trax, and Chevrolet counts more than 80,000 deliveries of the two in Canada over their first three years. Three trims are offered: LT, RS and Z71. Premier Chevrolet Cadillac Buick GMC in Windsor will have the 2027 Trailblazer once it lands at Chevrolet dealers, anticipated for spring 2027.
Features
Powertrain
Under the hood is a turbocharged 1.3 L 3-cylinder rated at 155 hp and 174 lb-ft of torque. Two drivetrain paths are available. Front-wheel drive teams the engine with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), for ratings of 7.7 L/100 km combined, 8.1 L/100 km city and 7.2 L/100 km highway. AWD uses a 9-speed automatic, with ratings of 8.7 L/100 km combined, 9.1 L/100 km city and 8.1 L/100 km highway.
AWD and Towing
The Z71 takes the AWD route as standard and pairs it with an off-road-tuned suspension. Towing capacity across the lineup is rated at up to 1,000 lb (453 kg). Drivers who split their time between the E.C. Row Expressway and county roads out toward Kingsville and Leamington will cover both city and highway kilometres in a normal week.
Technology
Three pieces make up the connected experience. Google built-in with Gemini compatibility is standard. An OnStar Basics plan comes included for up to eight years. OnStar One is newly available, includes 12 months of service and adds the complete set of OnStar features, among them an in-vehicle WiFi Hotspot and video streaming. All of it runs on the larger 11.3-inch-diagonal centre screen, and voice control covers navigation, calling and music.
Chevrolet counts more than 20 standard safety and driver assistance features on the 2027 Trailblazer. Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Zone Steering Assist help on the highway. Front and Rear Park Assist, Reverse Automatic Braking and Rear Cross Traffic Braking help in parking lots. Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking and Side Bicyclist Alert watch busy corners, and the Safety Alert Seat and Rear Seat Belt Indicator round out the list.
Exterior
Every 2027 Trailblazer picks up exterior enhancements meant to add style, but the eye goes straight to the Z71. It wears sport-terrain tires and carries an underbody skid plate, two clear signs that this version is meant to handle unpaved roads. Those features follow a Chevrolet tradition. The brand’s “Z” designation first appeared in 1963 as a capability marker, and Z71 has meant extra hardware and a tougher appearance since the full-size pickups first wore it in 1988.
The rear of the Trailblazer gains a useful option as well. An AutoSense power liftgate can now be added, so the hatch rises without a tug. Arriving home with a cooler, folding chairs or a load of shopping, getting into the cargo area takes less effort.
Interior
Chevrolet says the Trailblazer interior is designed for the driver, and the layout backs that up. The shifter now mounts on the steering column. With the console no longer holding a shifter, Chevrolet rebuilt it to offer more flexible storage, and the cupholders retract to open up extra space when you are not using them. Facing the driver is an 11-inch-diagonal information centre. Beside it, an 11.3-inch-diagonal infotainment screen handles audio and apps.
Rear passengers get vents of their own, thanks to that same console redesign. Storm Sky Gray, a natural, earthy shade, makes its Chevrolet debut here as an all-new interior colour. Z71 owners get a cabin that matches the trim’s character: Jet Black and Storm Sky Gray with Orange accents, along with debossed front-row headrests.
