2022 Chevy Blazer Trims Comparison

2022 Blazer trim level differences

The Blazer is a five-passenger SUV available in four trim levels: 2LT, 3LT, RS and Premier. The 2LT, 3LT and Premier come standard with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (228 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque) and a nine-speed automatic transmission. Optional on those trims, and standard on the RS, is a 3.6-liter V6 (308 hp, 270 lb-ft). Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional for all Blazers. The Blazer's significant standard and optional features include:

2LT
The base 2LT provides a decent amount of standard equipment including:

  • 18-inch alloy wheels
  • Six-speaker audio system with satellite radio
  • Four USB ports (two USB-A, two USB-C)
  • 8-inch touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone compatibility
  • Cruise control

Safety features as a part of the standard Chevy Safety Assist package include:

  • Forward collision warning (alerts you of a possible collision with the car in front)
  • Automatic emergency braking (warns if a front impact is imminent and applies the brakes if you don't respond in time)
  • Lane keeping assist (steers the car back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)

3LT
Builds on the 2LT's equipment with:

  • Leather upholstery
  • Heated front seats
  • Heated outside mirrors
  • Power liftgate
  • Blind-spot monitor (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
  • Rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle behind you is about to cross your vehicle's path while in reverse)

RS
The RS comes standard with the V6 engine, plus:

  • 20-inch wheels
  • Special black grille and black exterior trim
  • Programmable power liftgate
  • Upgraded touchscreen infotainment with navigation
  • 120-volt power port
  • Heated steering wheel

Premier
The top-line Premier reverts back to the four-cylinder engine as standard and has its own unique chrome and silver exterior trim. Otherwise it's equipped much like the RS.

Many features from the higher trim levels can be added to the lower trims via various equipment packages. Other significant packages include:

Sound and Technology package
Available on the 3LT, it includes:

  • 8-inch touchscreen with navigation
  • Upgraded eight-speaker Bose audio system
  • Digital rearview mirror (allows you to see out the back even with a fully loaded cargo area)
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Blazer and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • 120-volt power outlet

Enhanced Convenience package
Available on the RS and the Premier, it includes:

  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated outboard rear seats
  • Driver's seat memory settings
  • Upgraded eight-speaker Bose audio system
  • Power-adjustable steering column

Driver Confidence II package
Adds extra content to the RS and Premier trims with:

  • Wireless device charging
  • Surround-view camera system
  • Rear camera mirror
  • LED headlights
  • Rear-seat reminder (alerts you to check the rear seat before exiting the vehicle)
  • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the Blazer and the car in front)
  • Enhanced automatic emergency braking (works at higher speeds than the standard automatic emergency braking system)

Which 2022 Blazer trim does Edmunds recommend?

Even though the base L and 1LT trim were eliminated for the 2022 Blazer, we're sticking with our recommendation of the 2LT trim level, which is now the new base version. It's decently equipped with convenience and technology features and represents the best value. Consider adding the Convenience and Driver Confidence package for some extra features such as remote start, heated front seats and auto-dimming mirrors.
