Engines and Performance

The Chevy Blazer offers two engine options to suit different power needs: a standard turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder capable of producing 228 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, and an optional 3.6L V6 that produces 308 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. At 4,500 pounds of max towing capacity, you can haul almost any boat, trailer, or quad. On AWD variants, you’ll get the advanced Twin-Clutch AWD system to maximize traction.

If power is what you’re after, you may want to opt for the Chevy Traverse. Its sole engine is a turbocharged 2.5L V6 that harnesses the power of 328 horses and produces 326 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The Traverse offers up 500 pounds of extra towing weight over the Blazer, making it slightly more capable but overall very similar in hauling strength. Like the Blazer, the Twin-Clutch AWD system is available on AWD trims.

Interior and Cargo

The Blazer is a two-row SUV with seating for up to five passengers. The second row has standard 60/40 split-folding seats that fold flat to create extra cargo room, bringing the storage capacity to a total of 64.2 cu.ft. Heated and ventilated front seats come standard, while heated rear seats are optional, as is customizable ambient lighting. The climate system features intuitive controls and round air vents that can be twisted to shift the temperature settings.

The Chevy Traverse has three rows of seating for room for eight passengers maximum. This might be ideal for large families that need the extra seats but don’t want to invest in a minivan. The second row features your choice of captain’s chairs or bench seating, and has standard power folding in the RS and High Country trims. Like the Blazer, the rear row is a 60/40 split bench that folds down flat. With both rows folded, there’s 98 cu.ft. of space to play with.

Technology and Infotainment

The Blazer has a relatively small 10.2-inch center touchscreen when compared to the Traverse’s standard 17.7-inch screen. Both SUVs have standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and optional Wi-Fi hotspots. Google is built into the Traverse’s infotainment system, offering easy access to Google Maps, Google Assistant, or Google Play. The Blazer has six USB ports to charge up various devices, while the Traverse only comes with two.
