The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer presents a compact SUV designed with precision engineering and practical functionality. This model integrates a turbocharged engine, efficient drivetrain options, modern technology, and a range of safety features. The overall package supports a broad spectrum of driving requirements including everyday commuting and light off-road capability.

Exterior Dimensions and Design Considerations

The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer measures 183.2 inches in overall length and rides on a 107.5-inch wheelbase. Its width extends to 74.9 inches, providing a stable footprint, while its height is set at 65.6 inches. Ground clearance is consistent across trims, ranging from 8.05 to 8.2 inches. 

The vehicle's design includes squared wheel openings and pronounced fender flares, visually reinforcing its ruggedness. Wheel options include standard 17-inch aluminum wheels on most trims, with 19-inch and 20-inch wheels available for higher specifications. Tire choices vary, including all-terrain tires on specific trims to enhance off-road traction.

Technology and Driver Interface

The interior integrates technology focused on driver engagement and convenience. A configurable 11-inch diagonal driver information display presents critical vehicle data clearly. The main infotainment screen measures 11.3 inches diagonally and is positioned to be easily accessible from the driver's seat. This system supports Google built-in services, offering access to navigation, media, and voice commands.

Additional tech features include wireless charging for compatible devices and a six-speaker audio system that delivers clear sound quality. The vehicle's electronic transmission range selector is mounted on the steering column, which frees up storage space below the infotainment screen.

The interior material selection incorporates tactile finishes and coordinated textures across seats, the instrument panel, and door panels, balancing durability with a refined feel.

Interior Space and Cargo Capacity

The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer offers an interior that focuses on functionality. Headroom in the front seats measures 40 inches without a sunroof, slightly reduced when equipped with one. Shoulder room reaches 57.7 inches up front, ensuring adequate space for occupants. Hip room is 55.2 inches in the front seats, and rear seats provide 55.8 inches of shoulder room and 50.8 inches of hip room.

The rear cargo area provides 29.8 cubic feet of space behind the seats. Folding the 60/40 split rear bench increases cargo volume to 63.5 cubic feet. The vehicle also features a hidden cargo floor storage compartment for additional organization and secure storage.

Engine and Drivetrain: Balanced Power and Efficiency

The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with dual overhead camshafts and direct fuel injection. This powertrain employs variable valve timing and an automatic stop/start system to optimize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The engine produces 175 horsepower at 5600 rpm. Torque output varies with drivetrain configuration, delivering 184 lb.-ft. between 2000 and 4800 rpm in front-wheel-drive models, and 203 lb.-ft. between 2000 and 4000 rpm when equipped with all-wheel drive.

The engine's cast aluminum block and cylinder head contribute to reduced weight while maintaining durability. The four valves per cylinder configuration supports efficient air intake and exhaust flow, enhancing performance and responsiveness.

Transmission options include a continuously variable transmission paired with front-wheel drive and an eight-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission available for all-wheel-drive configurations. The eight-speed automatic transmission offers a broad range of gear ratios, beginning at 4.69 for first gear and tapering to 0.62 in eighth gear. This wide ratio spread supports smooth acceleration and efficient highway cruising. The final drive ratio varies between 5.81 for front-wheel-drive models and 3.47 for all-wheel-drive models.

Chassis and Suspension: Engineered for Control and Comfort

The suspension system on the 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer uses a MacPherson® strut setup in the front, featuring specifically tuned coil springs and a direct-acting stabilizer bar. The rear employs a four-link independent suspension designed to balance ride comfort with stability. 

Steering is accomplished through a dual pinion rack electric power steering system. The steering ratio is 17.0:1, allowing for responsive maneuvering and control. The vehicle's turning circle measures 37.1 feet, facilitating easier navigation in tight spaces.

Braking utilizes four-wheel disc brakes equipped with anti-lock braking system and electronic stability control. The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer features Duralife rotors designed to reduce drag and enhance durability, paired with low-drag calipers that help maintain braking efficiency.

Additional standard systems include side bicyclist alert, rear vision camera, rear seat reminder, lane change alert with side blind zone alert, rear cross traffic braking, and rear park assist. Enhanced versions of automatic emergency braking and lane keep assist are also included, providing greater responsiveness in critical scenarios.

Teen Driver technology allows for parental control and monitoring of new drivers, offering customizable vehicle settings and driving reports through the infotainment system.
