If you’re looking to purchase a new Chevy Trailblazer near Dubuque, then look no further than Runde Chevrolet. The new Trailblazer is a great choice for someone looking for an entry level SUV.  The vehicle has some great standard features as well as some great available features and packages.  There are a number of trim levels to choose from including the LS, LT, the sleek and sporty RS trim level, and if you’re looking for something a little bit more rugged or a little more “off-road” in appearance you should take a look at the Activ trim level.

If you get the FWD version, it comes equipped with a 1.2 liter turbo standard engine.  If you opt for the AWD version, then your vehicle will come with a 1.3L turbo engine with a little more horsepower, a little more torque, and great overall performance.

Style Is Saying Who You Are Without Speaking

The styling of the Trailblazer may look a little bit familiar to you and if you’ve see the Chevy Blazer (the big sibling of the Trailblazer) you’re sure to notice the resemblance.  The Blazer is a really popular, great-looking vehicle from Chevy and a lot of what you see with the Trailblazer (when it comes to styling) comes from the Blazer.

One of the most visible differences between the trim levels on the Trailblazer can be seen when you look at the top of the SUV.  On the Activ and the RS trims, you get a different colored exterior roof.  The various roof colors on the RS and Activ are white, black, and bronze and what color the roof is will depend on what color you choose for the exterior.

Remote start is a nice feature that’s standard on the LT trim level or above.  That’s something that’s definitely nice especially when temperatures dip into the single digits or below during the winter season in our geographic area.  So if you end up purchasing a new Chevy Trailblazer near Dubuque, you’ll definitely want to go with one of the trim levels that offers remote start.

The Trailblazer is Packed with Useful Features

Another great feature is a folding passenger seat in the front row … when you combine this feature with the flat-folding rear seats, you create a cargo area that can carry an eight-foot ladder if needed.  That alone demonstrates the overall versatility of this vehicle.

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard features on the Trailblazer which will allow you to plan out everything for all your upcoming road trips.  Mix tapes are definitely a thing of the past when you own this vehicle.

There are safety packages available on the upper trim levels that offer things like “Teen Driver”.  If you’re a parent and have a teenage driver, you can set up “Teen Driver” to have a PIN protected report card of how your son or daughter is doing.  With this you can see things like how fast they were driving, hard braking and hard acceleration.  There are parameters in the Teen Driver feature once they’re activated that promote safe driving … for example the radio won’t work if the seat belts aren’t fastened.  It’s things like this that assist parents in teaching their kids to be safer drivers.
