Loving my new Trailblazer LT
Just leased a new Trailblazer LT and am loving it! Great features and comfortable ride. Turbo is awesome and love the fact I can take it out of AWD when I don't need it!

Innovative compact SUV
My wife aid I were shopping for a larger SUV than this, but after we laid eyes on the Trailblazer with it's unusual features we wanted a test drive and came back so impressed that we bought it. We liked the sporty handling and well thought out design, and after owning it for a few days we're even more impressed. There's a little more road noise than larger cars but not objectionable, and the Bose radio in the technology package will drown that out. Ours also has the moon roof package, double the size of most sunroof openings. The 1.2 liter engine didn't feel sluggish, it has adequate torque to do what we wanted. If you get all-wheel drive and expect to do off road exploring then the 1.3 engine with 9-speed automatic is probably the combination for you.

noise blazer
I have a 2023 Chevy Trailblazer RS front wheel drive and new. Lots of noise on the highway and bumpy on normal roads. The color is the crimson red which looks real nice under the lights of a dealership but outside the appearance of color is darker and like oxblood color which to me is not to good. The 1.3 engine is fine. There is room in this car for the The interior is ok. The looks of the vehicle is decent. Since I have only had this for a short time things could change. If you ride it easy and steady you should get around 35 mpg. Theres alot of rubber like and plastic in the interior. The car is not overpriced and not underpriced. I would recommend a different color. The ad colors plus on Chevy site seem to glorify the colors they are different looking in person and not so nice looking.

Meh
I started seeing this body style around, and thought I had to get one. Purchased the 23 RS in October of 22, with several parts on back order. After a year of ownership, all the back ordered parts are installed. It’s pretty fun to drive, the size and gas mileage are great. I’ve had no mechanical issues so far. The heated seats and steering wheel get warm quickly, and the seat heat starts up when it’s remote started. The bad: It absolutely sucks in the snow. A few inches of snow on the ground and this vehicle is pulled all over the road. The speakers are so crappy, I never turn it on. It lacks proper insulation. In below zero temperatures, you’d think you left a window cracked for as much cold air that comes in through the console. Air filter doesn’t filter, I get to enjoy exhaust from surrounding vehicles, even on the interstate. The seats are not comfortable, I can handle about one hour before I'm squirming around. Road noise is loud at Highway speeds. The suspension is stiff, you feel every bump in the road. The trailblazer might be a good fit for younger couples or a good college car, but personally, I plan to trade it soon for a more comfortable ride.

Great Looking & Spacious
This is my first SUV in the last several years, but I really like it. It's very spacious for a small SUV and has a ton of headroom. It's a great looking vehicle inside and out. I especially like the front grill area on my RS model. I think it has a good amount of features in most departments, but definitely lacks in the modern safety features. Despite having the top trim model, my vehicle does not have adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, or automatic breaking while in reverse. I think all of these things should be standard in 2023. Additionally, the collision alert is very sensitive and even faulty. It typically does multiple collision alerts each time I commute, and I haven't found a way to adjust the sensitivity of it. The main display and Chevy infotainment is terrific. The audio system in the vehicle is satisfactory. The daytime running LED lights and LED fog lights are cool looking, along with the LED taillights. I only wish the headlights themselves were LED. My main complaint with the vehicle's electronics is the display of the odometer/tachometer area is highly outdated. I'm talking like 10 years behind current technology. It consists of a tiny little black and white screen with limited and unhelpful information. I cannot believe Chevy has made no effort to update this. Other than that, the vehicle drives pretty good. It's zippy and accelerates relatively quickly from stop but has very poor acceleration once you're already at speed. As other commenters have noted, the road noise of the vehicle is somewhat bad, but hasn't bothered me much. All in all, it's definitely a vehicle that I'm going to enjoy leasing but do not plan on buying it.
