#Chevy #Blazer - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Nice review. Thank you.
Damn this car really sucks holy shitt😷
@@cadechew5118 thank you for agreeing with me
I have a 2020 Chevy blazer daily driven and I’ve already put about 85k miles in 2 1/2 years and I honestly have no complaints, and no problems. It has great power and great handling.
Got the nitro yellow 22 good ride
grill looks as angry as the owner will be after the warranty lapses
😕😬😲😦
Especially since it's built in Mexico 🇲🇽
Don’t keep it that long
Or when they go into trade it in and its worth 15k after the first year.
I imagine many GM owners will regret jumping on the 84 month loans and being stuck with repairs after warranty expires,
This should have been the new “Trailblazer” and GM should have built a proper Blazer to live up to the legacy of the original. And no chance I am paying over $30K for this
That’s $50k for “ok”. HARD pass
30k? That’s the base price of a new 2021 Ford Bronco. I wouldn’t pay 21k for this blazer
Woah. The trailblazer should never be like this
@@grim5113
Trailblazer has a real legacy 😑
made in mexico $20000 tops
Chevy should have just taken the risk and make an off-road vehicle rather than another Equinox
Joe Moore bruh fax. And that trashy new Trailblazer should have been the next Trax. And instead they should have brought the real Trailblazer that they sell in Asia and brazil to the us!
Agreeeeeeddddd
Chevy does make off road vehicles. Ever herd of the Colorado Bison or the ZR2.
Lolll yeah but how about a real blazer body on frame to compete with bronco and Wrangler
ZeroCool trucks that no one is interested in? Ok 👌. They get killed in that segment by Toyota and Jeep.
$51,000 is extremely high . I’d rather purchase a Tahoe .
You could just about squeeze into a new base Tahoe for $51k...or less if incentives are offered.
My brothers Tahoe was nothing but problems.....stay away from GM products
@@toddbob55 never had issues with my 1999 Tahoe.
I wouldn’t pay 51 dollars for this...Chevy sucks now
Andrew M
😂
These car companies just never learn. They still stuck with the old ways.
Would rather pay a couple more grand and get a new Tahoe
You hit the nail on the head
Me to
Couple grand more? Have U priced Tahoe? A typical "rental" grade will sticker for $70,000
@@Coupydog no they're not just looked mid 40s for a LS Tahoe and mid 50s if you want 4wd.
$50k gets you a loaded Telluride or Palisade.... big nope to the Chevy at that price
Those are selling in huge numbers! Unlike this Soccer mom SUV
Yea u can buy an outdated Grand Cherokee limited X cheaper than this Blazer
This comment makes alot of sense , you are correct, why buy this at 51k when u can get a loaded 3 row suv such as highlander, telluride, palisade, explorer ,etc. Chevy is just using the blazer name to try and get more sales.
@@MiguelRamirez-bn9sz The GM messed up and made the Blazer a generic GM SUV. It needs or should be built on the Colorado chassis.
@@sjohnsonnc06 I have seen a few 90s and early 2000 Blazers with low miles for under $10K
I would not pay anything close to $51000 for this I see 33k
Lmao 💯 true
Because you can't afford shit lol
@@leonardrice1500 no because for 51k you could have a tahoe or suburban or crew cab 4wd truck... and all that money you save in fuel mileage in the blazer will be lost in far higher rate of depreciation.
Leonard Rice no it’s because this Blazer is overpriced you ignorant ass
@@Proxyyy825 kiss my ignorant ass you poor loser. LMFAO
How dare Chevy desecrate the Blazer legacy with this. It should have been called the Grand Equinox or something more 'crossovery.'
Indeed it could have been made into a rival for the upcoming Ford Bronco but they made it into a wimp
All they had to do was make the ZR2 a SUV and it would have been the perfect blazer
Spot-on with grand Equinox! You really need to see a Blazer and Equinox side by side and see the large Blazer name on the side to tell the difference
Chevy: What do we do when we already have so many soccer mom "pretend" SUVs? Oh yeah let's make another one and call it a Blazer.
This is so pathetic from GM.
The blazer still exists. Its called the Tahoe.
Great job Tommy. Price ruins this. My wife liked them, but it’s too small for my crew in the back. No way worth 51K!
It better have 15 grand in the trunk charging that much
Make it $20-$25K as far as I'm concerned!!
Not worth 51k . Good review
51,000 I would buy a Sierra for that kind of money...
Cameraman was so unimpressed he started photographing planes flying by. Lol
I clicked here it to answer the question. No is the answer.
BAAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA
When it comes time to replace those 21 inch tires, it will cost $350.00 to $400.00 a tire.
Thats what the RS stands for "Really Spendy"
Goddamn,low profile tires are a great idea if you have a good relationship with your chiropractor and your bank. They even look ugly.
No kidding I am paying $320 for 2 10ply Mastercraft cxt all terrains and them things can flat out eat, low profile is stupid .......
Future boat anchor after the warranty expires.
😂
Alex - I'd say, not quite... At least it doesn't have an I4 or a turbo (something had to be said for an "old-fashioned NA-V6").
Specially the glove box opening switch . . . 🤣
@@GIGABACHI - BIG MISTAKE!
Other automakers put MECHANICAL ALTERNATIVES for whenever those "electric-driven openings" fail.
Not GM here...
(if Doug had to test this he'd LAMBASTE GM about it)
syxepop the only engines GM builds well are their v8s and the pushrod 4.3 v6. Everything else is junk.
Put the 6.2 in this for that price and I’m there. Not interested in that V6
Why did they call this a Blazer? This is like if Jeep tried to say the Renegade is the new Wrangler.
BaleshNTP facts. This should have been called the Grand Equinox as a parody of the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee but shittier
The Renegade was a CJ5. When American Motors was alive
By the way they market it, thats what they're saying.
At that price, the buyer will still owe $25K when the timing chain snaps 😂
That a 35 to 40k vehicle at max. I haven’t seen a single one on the road.
The sales are VERY LOW. I actually saw one sit at a dealer for a year. It was the only they "tried to sell" too!
daaa the country was on lock down... alot of 2020 models late to the game...
@@jaybee2344 we have some at work, at even ones with only 200 miles on them, we have to sell them as used bc no one is buying them as new
i've seen one on my street and it is the rs. Then again there's 5 wranglers with grumper grills in my street as well.
Last year I worked on one the customer had a flat tire. When I first looked at it I said that looks ugly 🤣😂. I love the older style way better!!
A lot of nope with this one. Or should I say: mucho nop con este.
Haha learn Spanish first, bet you used translate...
grande nope. they ruined the blazer line forever. It used to be a mini tahoe but now they're effing crossover lib mobiles.
@@reynaldomancillas6285 In the US, no one needs to learn Spanish. English is our language.
Reynaldo Mancillas I did..lol.
I use The Blazer in my Sales Route and it's very dependable, Very Fast, Nice Riding and gets Great Gas Millage. Not interested in odd roading, but very stable in Snow and Ice with The delectable 4x4 and 3.6 V-6.
That thing is a rolling parts bin😂 even that rear cargo divider is straight out of my friends 2011 Cadilliac srx
yeah the 2012 had the same one
My neighbors 9-4X has that but his is the U rail.
I'll take the 2021 Toyota Rav 4 Prime
This car is designed for high school boys. Not too many can swing $50k.
...so High School boys can afford these?
High school boys don't dream about soccer mom crossovers, lol
Tripp55 this is true
This Blazer RS is a ripoff compared to a Corvette.
Tripp55 yea facts. This car is just designed for Karens
It will be 30 grand next year 😂😂😂
Will this exact Blazer be $30k next year?
J High not sure but , Chevy doesn’t hold much value, better off buying pre owned 👍
@@koolkev75
Then why quote $30,000 if you're not positive of its anticipated depreciation?
J High just being a wise one but it’s not worth 50 grand
@@koolkev75
Say what you mean and mean what you say.
I think it’s more of a 40K SUV, but that’s probably what you could get it for at a dealer anyway
vehicle prices have increased across the board. Too high for all of them! It now takes a 7 yr term for most people to afford financing. Should be a 3 or 5 year loan.
At that price point Chevy needs to do more....
This doesn't bode well for Chevy having cancelled the car lines, which bridged the gap between their least and most expensive vehicles.
Excellent comment and couldn't agree more. European amd Japanese cars are asking the same price but offer 10x what you get for American cars. And you're correct about the 7 year loans. They tell you the bi weekly payment thats low so you go...okay I can afford this. Sure for the next 7 8 years paying for this car. Lol
Helllll no. Lol
It's a shame that Chevy couldn't keep this vehicle at a practical price point. This size SUV needs to stay in the $24k-38k range...and you'd be lucky to get a base model with any collection of options for under $35,000...unfortunate.
Then go get the new trail blazer if you want some at 25k
That’s not a real Blazer. That’s an overpriced and big, tall bloated car.
It looks mean and dope, i like it.
@@Vol7aren_ but its slow and float! 50k no sirrrrr
OFCINC it’s an suv not an spirts car 🙄
@@Deputystandalone101 so because its a suv its supposed to be slow 👌 🆗️
@@OFCINC how u know so much about a car when u didn't drive it
If you won't say it, I will...Hell no, it is not worth $51k, but knowing Chevy, they will probably give you 15K off....
They truly messed it up.
This Blazer RS is a ripoff compared to a Corvette.
Guess we know where their profit is from - not the Corvette
$51K? Not on a good day! More like $38-41K.
Which is the price you can actually get them for.
That’s not a blazer, it’s just another ugly crossover. Good job on the presentation though Tommy
Its not that bad looking actually, front end is sharp. But if you grew up in 80s and 90s this name and product hurts! Marketing depts need to stop relying on name recognition from yesteryear and bring in something more edgy. If they named it something else that would take out more then half the haters and snarky comments.
Worth $35k maybe
A unibody for $51k isn’t in my future.
Rest In Peace Blazer.
Like most GM products, depreciation is atrocious as soon as you drive off the lot.
Ya 30 maybe even 35 way to expensive
Excellent videos..
I'll hang on to my K5
Yeh. I still have no idea what they were thinking naming it Blazer. Especially when we could already see the writing on the wall with the new Bronco. How dumb do you have to be to not see the current off-roading trend and then take the most well known name for an off-road SUV outside of Grand Cherokee (oh yeh. I almost forgot about the exact same thing FCA did with the Cherokee nameplate 😂) and slap it on a weak crossover? Just dumb!
Mike Lyssy the Cherokee had to evolve and with the wrangler there they didn’t need to worry about that slot because the wrangler fills a void in price point but now that the wagoner and grand wagoner are coming back that’s what should be paid attention to
I'm not a GM guy but even I know that this isn't worthy of the Blazer name. I should say I'm not into new GMs but I do like them from the late 80's and older. I had a rusty 84 K10 with a 305 but I still liked it. My friend had a K5 he swapped a 6.2 diesel into. Good memories and good looking trucks.
What's more laughable about this thing is the terrible commercials with the "real" public stating that it looks like nothing else on the road. It looks like everything else GM makes. Shake my head and cringe at the new "Blazer".....
I would like to say thank you for your very fair review
At 3:15 thought that was a mini ping pong table........for when you’re waiting for aaa to come. 🤣
Good review, you covered it. I have 2019 Blazer V6 2LT ..Same powerplant. When I start off aggressively, it will burn rubber if I'm not more careful. Power comes on instantaneous, not starting at 4,000 rpms. Acceleration is impressive! I wonder why the difference?
The digital cluster is the same as in a Opel Astra.
- Tob1uss- - we used to complain the same in 'this side of the Atlantic" on the C6 Corvette with a "Cavalier interior"... (or worse, a Mitsubishi Evo with those LANCER ECONOBOX interiors)
syxepop But the Evo is a Lacer. At least in Europe it was.
- Tob1uss- - I mean like the CHEAPER VARIANTS of the Lancer (DE, maybe LS). Instead of making PROPER UPGRADES to the interior on their top model.
I guess that's parts sharing. Opel is under GM as far as I know. Chevy too
Samiul Mahin At least for a year Opel is now in French hands. PSA bought Opel from GM. And for Opel it was a relief.
Well, that answers my question why I don’t see any of the new blazers on the road.
Because it's a junk Chevy.
Those types of center screens with big bezels already look extremely dated
Not worth 51k, for that price you can get a Mercedes cla amg 35 4matic.
That’s a compact car though. Completely different segment.
$51,000?
WITH $20,000 INCENTIVE IT MIGHT BE
great talk ~!
Short answer, hell NO!
GM has to charge more for the existing products since they unwisely canceled their car offerings, leaving them without a bridge to fill in the price gap between lower and higher priced offerings.
They cancelled their car offerings along with ford because they don’t sell
@@clayzr4716 they've cannibalized car sales for all the other manufacturers to the point where even the other manufacturers had to cancel their cars.
[Name drops Aztek in a 2020 Chevy video]
GM: reeeeeeeee Ford did nothing wrong!
Take a 4 door Sonic, add chrome and call it Elderado, price it at 80 grand, it’ll work!😂
Can you make a video for Acura RDX sh-awd same as this?
Missed opportunity. Chevy should’ve used this name to create a vehicle to compete with the Wrangler and Bronco.
Yes , great presentation! This is an sports car version of a cross-over. If they had the 'off road' capabilities of the Old Blazer, it would have been a game changer. So, as far as competition, its not a match for the Bronco, and I'm not even sure it can go up against the Rav4.
I love the look but way too expensive for what you get
Anyone know if there's talk of a performance "SS" version in the future?
I feel your pain at the beginning of the video Tommy trying to come up with anything positive about that Equinox I mean Blazer, still a great review! You guys are awesome
Do the TFL slip test!!!!!!
Ford brings back the Bronco and Chevy brings back this? lol.....
Where is the bronco? We're still waiting ...you douche bag
Leonard Rice and you ignorant ass, Ford will show the Bronco on July the 13th and will go on sale in fall
And the Bronco is another useless practical vehicle that ford is building for a saturated market of off-road vehicle. They need to go back and built small cars for under $18k and stop pushing people to buy suv and pick-up trucks people can’t afford because I know I can’t. P.S. I’m not a truck person I’m a car person
@@michaelcloninger5267
Car sales went down, trucks, SUV/CUV sales went up, not enough people buying cars anymore 🤦♂️
I realize that car sales went down and I blame the millennials and soccer moms. But do you realize if this keeps going the only way you will be able to buy a car is a used car with a lot of mileage and no warranty and what cars are left will be to expensive that people can’t afford. P.S I will group trucks/suv in that category.
This exact model is in town here...it lives across the street from buddys place..it's the same car..Thanks Tommy 🏁🏁🏁🏁
Chevrolet is hoping that the nostalgia that it brings is worth the extra 20k its overpriced. This was built for H.S. & College kids which 99% cant afford.
The 50K suv buyers are choosing German & Japanese brands.
This is definitely my favorite Chevy SUV but GM really loves to overprice their products but they still lack to have some tech and safety features standard compared to it's competitors.
And then they put massive discounts on them. Just like this one.
This thing is going to spind a lot of time in the shop, you will have to get use to driving loners
50k for a suv that isn’t fast nor can go off road lol 😂 😂🤦🏾♂️👈🏾👈🏾👈🏾👈🏾.
How many options and accessories did this press mule have that pushed the price to $51k? Can an RS be had for less if some of those options are skipped?
So, thanks to your review, I know the new Blazer has two things in common with my 87 Blazer, road noise and a spoiler.
Hi Tommy 🙂, great video.The exterior color is awesome but not worth $50k. One could get a Volvo XC40 or XC60 for close to or at the same price of this Chevy Blazer. There are better comparable options, again, great vid Tommy 🙂.
A lot of Camaro outside and inside. All the plastic bits that bend when his hands touch/move nearby parts makes it look cheap. Not bad overall design. Yeah, $51k is hard for me.
How will it stack up with its og rival the Bronco?
I’ll pay 51K when GM can tell me why should I pay all that for junk !!!!
Perfect for those wanting a Camaro SUV.
The reason I got mine! Most of the ones I see on road (few as they are) are base model-trim, not RS. In base trim, nothing about them sets them apart from an Equinox or Traverse. They blend in too much. The RS line has the sporty tweaks & U can add factory racing stripes.
Crappy auto 😂 I would take the bronco
ripfletching same any day, especially the 2 door 5 speed manual trans version
It’s like GM doesn’t try anymore 😂🤦🏽♂️
I own one and have been very pleased. I did have the electronics fail with it not even being a year old, so that was very disappointing. It was all repaired under warranty. Everyone where I loves the look of the car, I have the Blue one. I think it is worth the money for a sub luxury SUV, in Ft. Lauderdale at the Conrad it was parked next to RR's and Bentley's, so it definitely has some style that people like.
I love it and can't wait to get my Blazer RS in Red Hot with all the bells and whistles
The red hot looks pretty neat!
There's nothing special about this SUV.
Put the Z06 motor, then you have something.
Its FWD... Now build it like the old S10 chassis then yes for a V8. In fact they did put 5.3 V8 in Colorado for a few years.
Not worth it at all
Nice looking but if I wanted a good looking SUV I'd just get a Telluride which is cheaper and probably a little more reliable
I saw one on the road today. A real head turner!
This looks awful, they should of made it look like the older vehicle and maybe beating ford to the market with their Bronco
Not sure how well these are selling. They have been on the market for a while now. I think I've only seen maybe 10 of them on the road around Dallas.
I know for a fact I saw one sit on a dealers lot for a YEAR! He only had one and he was done with that POS! 😡
Photography is all jacked up. It was hard as hell to get a view of the overall look of the vehicle. A wider panning of the vehicle would have been better. I don’t get why some car critics find the worst places to photo the car. It’s was like someone in the witness protection program reviewing cars.
At 40 mph hearing cabin intrusion.LOL!
51 K Canadian maybe, only because the deep discount on our dollar right now.
Old Gear Head - 51K "Loonies" (that's how I've heard people call them) is ~ 37.5K U$. I think it's worth a bit more for a topped-up "CamaroCross RS", like 59K "Loonies" = 43.4K U$. That is maybe doable with heavy incentives...
@ablackprep - that depends on what you're talking about.
51K Yen (< U$475), Korean Won (` U$42.50) or Maxican Peso (< U$ 2.3K) are way low for an automobile...
The others, well... (suffice to say both the Euro and the British Sterling are traded > U$1 each)
At 50 grand & I can't say = I have a Cadillac. ( nope ) HA.HA.HA
Interesting video. RS is on my shortlist, couple of things that would have made the video even more interesting would have been a back seat test for room and features i.e ports, heated seats etc. Also would have liked to have seen the hood popped.
Lol Tommy struggling at the end not to say it.
No thank you, lease it
Yea...
No
That 3600 V6 is tried and true and bulletproof. The only problem I ever had with one was in a ‘97 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. The crank position sensor slipped and it fell out of time so it wouldn’t run until I slipped it back into place and secured it (JB Weld😂)!
Same architecture as the 3800.
It’d probably be better with the 4.6L though.
I miss you guys doing the navigation test to that restaurant.
There’s not a car or truck on the road worth $50k IMO.
lol, I'm pretty sure a lot of cars and trucks are worth 50k.
Had to waste the blazer name on this 🤭
I have the white version and I LOVE IT 😻
I had that exact one for a year, put 22,000 miles into it before GM bought it back because they couldn't fix an issue with the fuel gauge.
