The Trailblazer from Chevrolet does share a name with a far more rugged ancestor and no it's not what it once was, but Mike Danger has some things to say about it that might make you change your mind about how you feel about this new Trailblazer. #KBB

Entertaining presentation. I just bought one last week so it was roomier for my dad. I love it! AWD, sunroof, heated seats, heated steering wheel, power seats, the list goes on. One review said it was boring to drive without much pick up. That's completely false.
it has a 3cl engine.
I like this guy, it’s good to see an individual of a more normal height checking out these vehicles.😂
6'4" is more than average height. 😊
He’s the perfect height to show me what fits 👍👊🏻
I just picked up this Trailblazer RS in red. Got all the packages: sunroof, dual-pane, panaramic; Convenience package; adaptive cruise and soumd package; driver confidence package. Really like this vehicle. I also have the fully loaded 2024 Trax 2RS and love that one as well. The difference, other than appearance, I think, are the Trailblazer is a little smoother ride, larger on the inside, the center console and door arm rests are slighltly softer (but not much), power drivers seat in the RS model, but a negative is that the Trailblazer is louder with road noise than the Trax. Really love both of these, of course I got the AWD version of the Trailblazer.
I like Mike Danger doing reviews. I don't know why people be hating.
They're not really hating on the person (although some are), they're hating on the car because it's not how they remember the original Trailblazer which was great offroad. Kinda how they reacted when Mitsubishi announced the Eclipse Cross in 2018.
Aw thanks Abid. I was the new guy so it takes some time to warm up to the KBB crowd. But people like you make it easier and make me happy to do these reviews. Thanks for watching and your support, friend! 🙏
@@yesmikedanger I still don't like the Trailblazer lol 😂😂😂
@@abidshaikh3077 well dang 🤣🤣🤣
We still love ya Mike danger.
Awww thank ya
Dear Kelly Blue Book, if your smart you will give Mike as many assignments as you can..You guys have a great line up and Mike is perfect compliment to what this channel is.,smart and informative car reviews..
Awww thanks so much!
@@yesmikedanger you are the Colion Noir of car reviewers.
Fun that GM looks to Camaro for styling cues yet is canceling it. Good for Mike for mustering some enthusiasm and humor!
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada I really enjoyed the video
Mike is a great reviewer. Him and Micah are huge assets to you guys.
Love it. Thanks for the review.
I like when you do auto reviews because you’re tall like me and if you fit in the car good, it would be a car I would consider.
I like to see Mike Danger do these videos … He should do more videos !!
Thanks for watching, Tino! I appreciate you
I saw one of these on the road today and it reminded me of my 1961 Corvair!!
Really helpful review! THANKS
My pleasure!
Thank you. I’m considering purchasing this SUV. You’re video is helpful
Mike, you're a trooper and I love your videos. And I like this little Trailblazer, hands up for the power liftgate option! (Had an '06 Scion tC and a huge con was the hatch not holding up over time...) Anyone seeing the outgoing Toyota Yaris hatchback's taillights when looking at the Trailblazer's taillights?
Nice Review. THANKS
Great review Mike!
Thanks Jewels!
Wow awesome video thanks a lot 😊
Thanks for watching, Mega!
Great review Mike!😸
Hey thanks Ryan! Happy new year! 🎊
Great vid Mike!
Thanks friend!
This is really a hot looking car, especially topped out in RS Trim!
Excellent presentation. I'm 6'4" as well and this was super helpful because while I fit in the Trax I cannot see out of the windshield appropriately.
Glad I could help!
My New Favorite Presenter! I want to see 3 Mikes in the back seat.
Haha thanks Gene! 3 Mikes would be super-tight!
Well done Mike.
Mike Danger you are awesome. KBB should show more MD video reviews.
Appreciate you, Noah!
As a long time KBB watcher Micah will always be my favorite but Mike and Lynn have won me over. Mike is the big fella ( gotta know if the bigger ppl can fit in these cars) and he’s fun. Lynn is the big sister who’s always giving you advice… like the car you should buy!
Awwww happy to hear that, friend! 🎉
We love hearing that. Thanks for being a loyal subscriber. We'll keep making videos!
Can I get dual temp controls?
Mike is awesome 👏
Haha thanks Sid!
Mike Danger is a name dropper...
Btw the Trailerblazer looks decent enough, but will it last?
LOL cool review! Aaaaah on the Bronco ---that's how I feel too.
Mike im 6'4 so nice to see you fit and help me out unfortunately i have a 2019Mazda GS sport hatchback will keep until it stops working lol
Always happy to help out the taller folks! Thanks for watching, Stephen!
Imagine me, I’m 5’7 😂
I am waiting to hear back about a Colorado, if that falls through, I am going to get this in the Red Tincoat - looks super nice.
Just one reason why I should go for this instead of crosstrek !!!
I like ALL the kbb presenters, but prefer my 6’ 4” height twin to show me the interiors!
Haha thanks for that! Always happy to help out 😊
Nice!!!
I bought a rs and I love it ❤
Very helpful information Mike! For my next fleet vehicle I have to choose between the Chevrolet Trailbazer and the Subaru Impreza . . . Thinking about giving tbe trailblazer a shot 🤔
Nice! Give em both a chance 👍 thanks for watching
I’d say Subaru Impreza. There’s a lot of things that made me think “stay away, stay away”. For example, the center console elbow test. Plastic. PLASTIC. I’m paying close to $29k, but I get a PLASTIC elbow rest!!! GM really needs to up their game. As I said in my other comment, this is just another piece of South Korean GM trash (the Trailblazer is assembled in South Korea).
@@yesmikedangerYo Mike!! Wasap!!
@@carfan108 yooooo what’s up!
@@yesmikedanger Hey! I’m subscribed to your channel (though you haven’t had a video on there in a long time LOL)!
Mike Danger is lowkey a star
Aw shoot, I’m tryna be! Appreciate the support 🙏
It’s really amazing how roomy the traileblazer is for such a subcompact suv..I’m 6.2 and I fit in the back seat
Just love that monterous engine and it's Corvette inspired CVT.
Bought,itloveit too❤
Well in Brazil 🇧🇷 they still have a real trailblazer, should’ve brought that one to the states
Just fyi for anyone else that doesn’t know, but if you want to see more of Micah, he has his own channel, Micah Muzio, where he reviews cars with his wife Evie (I might have the spelling wrong) and his daughter!
Makes me like my 2006 Saturn VUE with the 3.5 Honda 250hp powertrain even more 😊
And I like this little Trailblazer,
Awesome video Mr. Danger! And I don't even like the Trailblazer...Haha.
Ha! Well I’m glad you still watched. That was nice of you!
Mike Danger is that dude. Miss the sarcastic guy who went to Acura a lil bit tho
Thanks! Yeah Zach’s reviews were pretty damn good.
What’s like the point though of 3 SUVs: Blazer Trailblazer Trax - all look so similar. What purpose do they serve? GM’s product portfolio planning team doesn’t seem to know what they’re doing, it looks like…
Let me just say, the name "Mike Danger" alone makes you more awesome than that Micah guy.
I think I was meant to have a trailblazer. It's like the work version of my dream car as a kid.
Chevrolet trailblazer midsized is still around. It's available in the South America. This subcompact Trailblazer should not be confused as the replacement of the midsized Trailblazer.
At 7:55, if Chevy didn’t have the trailblazer name on that model, I would call it the 2024 Chevrolet HHR . That would've been a huge surprise if chevy did that
P.S. the new Chevy Trax RS is like a budget Lamborghini Urus because the Chevy Trax RS can go quicker than you think just saying
Great bang for your buck
LOL at US. Chevrolet Trailblazer has a current generation here in Asia that is a Midsized SUV
They don't make Trail Blazer with a 6cyl., no turbo!?
Be nice to have a midsized option 2 row with v6 and v8 options. Chevy and GM in general are not making compelling vehicles. Only 1 I like is Tahoe.
thought I recognized Irvine!
If this is subcompact, what is the compact model?
Has everything but comfortable armrest
I think its pretty cool but the engine is WAY to small and probably going to explode after 100k miles or less, also cvt is big oof but besides that its fine
Yeah you could put Micah in there. Imagine that.
Too bad they are not made in the U S, maybe the dealers would have more than one.....
Downsizing is a trend I’d like to see more of in the U.S. Props to Chevy for sticking with the smaller design they started producing a couple years ago!
@ByrdNick
Downsizing?? This is just one of 5 Chevrolet suv/crossovers they offer. Each in its own size-class. Which, this slots one above the Trax(smallest offering)
Every manufacturer has the same lineup/competing vehicles.
the trax is slightly bigger than the trailblazer
I three cylinder turbo, reminds me of a 80s, Chevy sprint! And yes, they had those in a turbo as well. It sounds like a sewing machine! Go with the Honda CRV you’re gonna get the same gas mileage! Plus you’re gonna have outstanding reliability!
And double the price in Canada
Honda sucks nowadays. They are number 19 in jd power and associates reliability list 2024. Chevrolet is 4 on that list The CRV cost more than this with options plus it has a cvt transmission.
The 2019 Body Look Way Better Then These💯💯💯 These Look Like Some Of The Cars My Granny Got I Don’t Wanna Feel Like I’m Going To Bingo💯💯💯
I hate that all these ICE Cars/SUVs/Crossovers are being made with less than 200hp. I get that the EPA wants better MPGs but jeez!! no one wants to buy expensive turtles in 2024.
PS: Another great video, Danger!!! Where's Micah? lol j/k
Haha thanks for watching! Micah says hello 😊
@@yesmikedanger Micah and his family are good people. But hey!!! This is 2024, It's Danger time!!!! (While doing the hammer dance) LOL!!!
@@Kiss__Kiss 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 epic!
This little nuggets doesn’t need 200hp. 0-60 is roughly 8 seconds which is more than adequate for regular driving. It’s a normal car, not a race car
@@dawsongranger4940 While I understand your sentiments, it's not really about 0-60, as it is about passing power. More over, if you live in a city/state where your commute has hills and/or a noticeable difference in elevation? This may change your mind about buying such a vehicle.
But at the end of the day, we all lead different lives, and/or different priorities.
I like a 2002 of 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer 4x4 of Trailblazer ext 4x4 have a Tow hitch is Standard all across the board. Because I’m tall I don’t like a downsize. I love a big engine
Hardly any difference between the Trailblazer and Trax. Why does GM need two vehicles of roughly the same size and price?
So the big differences are the upgraded engine, AWD (for those who need it), and the two tone paint. But besides that, they’re pretty similar. And tbh when I drove the Trax last year in April, that engine isn’t half bad.
@@yesmikedanger GM could have chosen just one model, Trax or Trailblazer, and offered that as base FWD or optional AWD. Two very similar sized vehicles with the same (base) engine and styling, is only likely to confuse buyers! Plus… given what the Trailblazer was 20 years ago, this new one (along with the one it just replaced) is just not doing it for me!
Danger… need to see you review a McLaren or a Ferrari, they’re surely more your style 😎
Looks like kis seltos (but expensive 😂)
an suv should be able to do work/play and with the anemic motor it really lacks any utility of the old s10/trailblazers ...so much for new technology
A 1.3L engine is the upgrade? LOL
With almost as much power as my 2012 Matrix with a much bigger engine, and more torque. That 1.3 won't be as reliable though.
I hate the tiny engines with turbochargers route gm has gone. They are not gonna last long
Crazy that Chevy offers a RS trim with all that stitching and red but no more than a 150 horses. That's absurd.
Made in korea
Say activ one more time
Activ
Isn't this a Korean car now? I mean whatever, never wanted a Trail Blazer.
Not a real American trailblazer, if its not broke don't try to fix it. Who the hell wants a soccer ⚽️ mom vehicle, when the trailblazer should look like the Tahoe. 🤔
Yeah it's supposed to be a midsized Tahoe. They killed it
You realize this has been out for 3 years now right? The “downsized Trailblazer” would have been appropriate for the 2021 model year when it was first released. Not now.
I don't see a size difference between the 2021 models and this. They're probably comparing this to the GMT360 Trailblazers of the early 2000's.
Yup! This video is also for the folks who have never even seen a review on the Trailblazer. So now… EVERYONE gets good info! Win-Win! 🥳🎉
I don't mind this car and I like the car but, they should have never have named it trailblazer. They could have named it something else. This is not the trailblazer. If they would have named it something else it would have been fine. Matter of fact get rid of those other two cars that's below it and name it one of those
I have a feeling this was built by a Chinese car maker and sold by GM.
Overpriced immensely
So now chevrolet have a huge hole in their range. Its nonsense, i'll be going elsewhere.
Oh no
Oh YES!!!
Complete joke 😂😂😂😂gm said there ya go we spent all our money on the vette 😂😂😂.
...and the full size SUVs.
What a joke
😂
And why is that?
Stay away from 3cylinder American cars , thank me later gm chevy is known for doing these pos cars when theybknow economy is bad history repeats itself when in early 80s made the powerful nova lasted years then 90s made a 3 or 4 cylinder novas that were pos stay away stay away that goes for fords like there pos fiesta better of with a honda or toyota for that price ,listen to what this guy just said they made and off road option one 😂 but dont go off road with it , this car is a joke and you'll be the bloke if you buy it .
They ruined it
Why someone would buy this car is beyond me
I bought it and I absolutely love it
CRAP!! 👎🏽
Not even made in North America. I would buy a 2001-09 Trailblazer a million times over before I even touch this sad excuse of a trailblazer. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
This was the second worse rental car I’ve ever had. I would pass.
Do you remember which trim? And what didn’t you like about it? Just genuinely curious 👀
@@yesmikedanger it was a mid-grade LT AWD trim. It was too small cargo-wise (IKEA+Costco run), the infotainment kept freezing on us, the heated seats on level three got way too hot a couple times, the auto stop/start was very intrusive, and it wasn’t great at going up hills. It was all distracting and made me nervous on the road. Silver-lining, it was a judicious fuel sipper.
We were booked for a mid-size SUV and this is what Avis gave us. It was just not a comfortable place to be with all the plastics either. The seats were fine. I don’t remember disliking them. We are 5’10 and 6 ft. 160-175 lbs. Very average adults. I don’t remember head room or seat position being an issue.
@@Jojoba-wz6ri hey thanks for sharing that! I always wonder what people experience with a ride that they just flat out don’t like. I mean different strokes for folks and different needs, but sometimes the shoe just doesn’t fit. Appreciate the honesty!
Just buy a Toyota
