Review and specifications
2022 Chevrolet Blazer
The Blazer name was resurrected for an all-new SUV that slots between the compact Equinox and three-row Traverse. This midsized crossover model takes aim at the Ford Edge and Nissan Murano, five-passenger midsized SUVs that focus more on styling and luxury and less on utility. Four-cylinder and six-cylinder engines are available. The Blazer rides and handles well, it's quiet, and the V6's power delivery is smooth. Controls are easy to use but the low dash vents hurt air distribution. In 2022 advanced safety features such as forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning and lane keeping assistance became standard on all trims. A 10-inch infotainment screen became standard on 2023 models and heated seats became standard in 2024.

Brand context
About Chevrolet
Chevrolet sells a wide range of sedans, coupes, compact SUVs, large SUVs, EVs, and pickup trucks. Most models have roomy interiors and come with standard safety and convenience technology. Several models, however, have poor visibility and lack steering agility. Many Chevrolets rank average or below average for reliability in CR’s rankings. The brand stands out for selling historically significant and category-defining vehicles. The Suburban and Tahoe can keep three rows of passengers comfortable within their enormous cabins. The Silverado pickup truck competes with the best-selling Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 by balancing interior comfort with towing and cargo capability. In the past and today, the Camaro and Corvette are performance car bargains. The rear/mid-engined “C8” Corvette can be as thrilling as much more expensive European supercars. With some exceptions, used Chevrolets can have reliability issues, but are often less expensive to maintain and repair than competitors.
