Unlike the bigger and mechanically unrelated Chevy Blazer, the Trailblazer doesn't stand out for its driving dynamics.
Instead, Chevy makes up ground with its relatively large back seat and versatile cargo area.
Also of note are its two unique trim levels: the outdoorsy Activ and sporty RS.
From the curb, either of these will stand out from the crowd of other boring small crossovers.
The Trailblazer's interior design and styling resemble other Chevy crossovers.
That means it's rather uninspiring to look at with plenty of black plastic switchgear, but it doesn't feel cheap or especially low-rent for the money.
