In this episode of savagegeese, the team dives into the 2024 Chevrolet TrailBlazer RS, a vehicle that seems to have been given a new lease on life. They kick things off with a captivating tale of a group of engineers who were thrust into the daunting task of refreshing the TrailBlazer. It's a classic underdog story, with the team facing the challenge head-on, determined to turn this mundane CUV into something more exciting.
When it comes to the exterior, the TrailBlazer exudes toughness and American pedigree, with a design that screams "I'm here to make a statement." But interestingly enough, despite its American roots, the manufacturing of this vehicle has been outsourced to Korea. It's a CUV designed for those who have been stuck in the friend zone for far too long, yearning to break free and make a bold impression. And with its affordable starting price and generous incentives, it's a tempting choice for those looking to upgrade their lives.
Moving on to the interior, the team doesn't hold back in their critique. They describe it as mundane and average in every scenario, with only a few standout features, such as a wireless charging pad that's unfortunately obstructed by the shifter. The infotainment system, while boasting a big screen, suffers from sluggish performance and lackluster animations. It's clear that the designers have made some effort to update the vehicle, but it still falls short when compared to its competitors.
But where the TrailBlazer truly shines is in its technical prowess. Built on the JD Power award-winning VSSF platform, this front-wheel drive CUV offers a highly modular architecture. The optional all-wheel drive, paired with the 1.3L three-cylinder engine and a 9-speed automatic transmission, delivers impressive power and acceleration. The suspension, composed of high-quality steel, provides a comfortable and easily serviceable ride. It's a vehicle that handles well, with a near-perfect chassis balance and an all-wheel drive system that is nothing short of incredible.
In conclusion, the team acknowledges that while the TrailBlazer may not be the best small CUV on the market, it's certainly not as bad as some may think. It's a vehicle that represents a turning point for GM, as they begin to invest more effort into their small car lineup. With its strong drivetrain and commendable ride quality, the TrailBlazer offers a compelling option for those seeking a reliable and powerful CUV. However, the team suggests considering other vehicles in the segment unless the TrailBlazer is available at a significantly lower price. It's a vehicle that shows promise, but still has room for improvement in order to truly stand out in the competitive market.
