2026 Chevy Trailblazer | Small SUV
The Small SUV with a Big Personality
The 2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer continues to prove that you don’t have to go big to go bold. As a standout in the subcompact crossover segment, the Trailblazer combines athletic, Camaro-inspired styling with the functional versatility of an SUV. Designed for urban dwellers and weekend explorers alike, the 2026 Trailblazer offers a surprisingly spacious cabin, cutting-edge technology, and the confidence of available All-Wheel Drive—all wrapped in a maneuverable package that’s as easy to park as it is exhilarating to drive.
Sharp Lines. Adventurous Spirit.
One look at the 2026 Trailblazer reveals its performance-oriented DNA. With its sharp body lines, available two-tone roof, and a front fascia that commands attention, this SUV is designed to reflect your individual style. Whether you choose the street-smart RS with its mesh grille and 19-inch wheels or the rugged ACTIV trim tuned for off-pavement adventures, the Trailblazer ensures you never blend into the background of a crowded city street.
Defining the Trailblazer Experience: Connectivity, Versatility, and Style
Performance: Agile Power and AWD Confidence
The 2026 Trailblazer offers a choice of two efficient turbocharged engines. The available 1.3L Turbocharged engine delivers a spirited 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque, providing plenty of muscle for highway merging. Unlike many in its class, the Trailblazer offers an advanced All-Wheel Drive system available on LS, LT, RS, and ACTIV trims, paired with a responsive 9-speed automatic transmission to keep you moving through rain, snow, or mud.
Technology: Your Digital World, Unplugged
The Trailblazer’s cockpit is a tech-lover's sanctuary. Every model comes standard with a massive 11-inch diagonal HD color touchscreen angled toward the driver for easy access. With Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Wireless Android Auto™, your smartphone integrates seamlessly without the need for cables. Add the available wireless device charging, and your cabin remains a clean, cord-free environment no matter how long the journey.
Safety: Standard Protection for Every Drive
Chevrolet’s commitment to safety is standard. The 2026 Trailblazer features Chevy Safety Assist, a suite of six advanced safety technologies designed to help you stay safe on the road. From urban commutes to interstate travel, you are protected by:
- Automatic Emergency Braking: Helps you avoid or reduce the severity of impacts.
- Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning: Keeps you safely within your lane lines.
- IntelliBeam: Automatically toggles high beams based on surrounding traffic conditions.
