The latest Trailblazer models offer surprising interior space and modern styling, and Chevy’s technology features are among the easiest to use in the industry.

What’s New for the 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer
The only change made to the 2025 Trailblazer was the introduction of a new Marina blue Metallic paint color. Chevy issued a more substantive update for 2024, giving the SUV a new exterior design and a larger standard infotainment display.
Design
The Trailblazer falls in line with the styling seen on other Chevy SUVs, with slim LED daytime running lights, a large grille, and available two-tone paint options. Chevrolet offers a few wheel choices, depending on the trim and package, and top trims add tasteful chrome exterior accents.
Powertrain
Chevy offers two powertrain options for the 2025 Trailblazer. The base engine is a turbocharged 1.2-liter three-cylinder, making 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque. A turbocharged 1.3-liter three-cylinder is available, which produces 155 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. The base engine pairs with a continuously variable transmission, while the 1.3-liter comes with a nine-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard, but all-wheel drive is available. While the engine options don’t deliver many thrills, there’s enough power to make the Trailblazer a competent daily driver and commuter, though passing at highway speeds can take some planning.
Interior
The 2025 Trailblazer seats five people on standard cloth upholstery, but top trims add synthetic leather. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are available. The front seats are wide, spacious, and supportive, and the story is much the same in the back seat, though headroom is limited for tall adults. The available sunroof cuts into headroom further, but the SUV will be comfortable for most passengers. Cargo space is above average for the segment, measuring 25.3 cubic feet with the rear seats upright and 54.4 cubic feet with the second row folded flat.
Technology
Chevy equips an 11-inch touchscreen and an 8-inch digital gauge cluster as standard. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, four speakers, SiriusXM radio, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and remote keyless entry are also onboard by default. Chevy offers a Bose audio system, extra USB ports, and wireless charging.
Safety
The Trailblazer missed a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, but it comes well-equipped with driver-assistance technologies. Standard features include forward-collision warnings, automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, lane-departure warnings, automatic high beams, a rearview camera, buckle-to-drive mode, and a teen driver mode. Parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alerts are available.
Pricing and Release Date
The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer is on sale now. As of the time of this writing, pricing for the 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer starts at $24,495 for the base LS trim. The LT costs $25,695 and the RS starts at $29,095, and the Activ trim matches the RS’ price tag.
