New Chevy Trailblazer: Small SUV, Big Versatility – For Sale near Springfield and Decatur, IL
If you're looking to add some utility to your daily drives but need something with minimal space requirements, the new Chevy Trailblazer is an excellent choice. Its nimble handling and city-friendly dimensions make it well-suited to navigating busy streets and parking lots. And while it's technically a subcompact crossover, it's on the larger end of the segment and offers impressively roomy seating and cargo capacity for its size. Plus, with its bold Camaro-inspired style, it's not afraid to stand out from the crowd. In short, the Trailblazer is one of the most well-rounded and appealing models in its class. And you can find it right here at Landmark of Taylorville.
Accommodations and Utility
The Chevy Trailblazer's diminutive exterior dimensions belie a surprisingly spacious interior with ample seating for five passengers and plenty of headroom and legroom in either row. With all seats in use, Trailblazer retains 25.3 cubic feet for your luggage, groceries, or other errands. And when you need to prioritize cargo space, the 60/40-split rear seats fold easily, expanding capacity to 54.4 cubic feet. Still need more? Trailblazer comes standard with a fold-flat front-passenger seat, allowing it to accommodate items up to eight feet long. Trailblazer's cabin is stylish and inviting, with modern design details, quality materials, comfortable seating, and intuitive, seamlessly integrated tech. Available comfort and convenience upgrades include roof rails, proximity keyless entry, remote ignition, automatic climate control, a hands-free liftgate, a panoramic sunroof, and a household-style power outlet.
Performance
A well-tuned suspension system helps the Trailblazer maintain its composure in the curves and corners while cleanly absorbing road imperfections for a smooth and comfortable ride. The base 1.2-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine is efficient and responsive, sending 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels via a continuously variable transmission. If you're seeking a bit more internal motivation for your Chatham or Virden commute, RS and ACTIV models come standard with a 1.3-liter turbo-three powerplant (155 hp, 174 lb-ft) and a nine-speed automatic transmission. LS and LT models also get the stronger engine when equipped with available all-wheel drive. For improved handling and control in wintry conditions, the ACTIV trim adds an extra "Snow" driving model, plus underbody skid plates and an off-road suspension tune.
Technology
The Chevy Trailblazer comes standard with the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System, making it easy for drivers to stay connected, enjoy their favorite tunes, and find route directions while on the go.

ACTIV and RS models can also equip the available Technology Package, which adds features like Adaptive Cruise Control, wireless smartphone charging, a larger 8-inch touchscreen.
