What’s not to love?
To say the Blazer is economic for such a sporty SUV would be an understatement. This vehicle gets really good economy and is extremely efficient, especially on the highway. The most efficient engine, the turbocharged 2-liter, is good for 9 km/l in the city and 11.5 km/l on the highway, which is something not many crossovers in its class can say the same.
The Blazer has also been praised for its excellent handling by motoring journalists. Since crossovers are usually top-heavy, they’ll often understeer or have a tendency to exhibit extreme body roll when pushed hard, but not the Blazer. Chevy designed the suspension to be soft and absorb bumps and road imperfections, but also stiff enough to deal with body movement and comfortably control it.
If you want a mid-size crossover that looks great and drives brilliantly, I can honestly say the Blazer is one of the best options at the moment. For 2021 it also gets a host of safety assist features as standard, such as automatic emergency braking, making it one of the safest in its class too. It’s the ideal family car and daily driver.
