2021 Blazer LT FWD

The 2021 Chevrolet Blazer 2LT brings Camaro-inspired attitude to a practical midsize SUV, and this one is especially well equipped with the Convenience and Driver Confidence Package. Finished in Cherry Red Tintcoat over Jet Black, it combines sharp styling, turbocharged performance, strong fuel economy, and the comfort and safety features buyers use every day. With an original MSRP of $36,975, this isnt a stripped-down Blazerit was optioned to make daily driving noticeably better.

Power comes from Chevrolets 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder producing 227 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The combination delivers plenty of low-end torque while maintaining an EPA-rated 22 MPG city / 29 MPG highway. Ride and Handling Suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, StabiliTrak and traction control give the Blazer a confident, composed feel around town or on the highway.

The $1,845 Convenience and Driver Confidence Package is the big difference here. It adds heated front seats, remote start, a power rear liftgate, Universal Home Remote, auto-dimming rearview mirror, roof-mounted side rails, heated power mirrors with turn-signal indicators, Side Blind Zone Alert with Lane Change Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Rear Park Assist.

Inside, the Blazer gives you a spacious five-passenger cabin with an 8-way power drivers seat, dual-zone automatic climate control, tilt-and-telescoping steering column, rear air vents, multiple USB connections including USB-A and USB-C, Active Noise Cancellation, a six-speaker audio system and available 4G LTE Wi-Fi capability. The rear seating and cargo area give it the everyday versatility buyers expect from an SUV without the bulk of a full-size vehicle.

Outside, Cherry Red Tintcoat works perfectly with the Blazers aggressive proportions and signature black grille with bright chrome detailing. LED daytime running lamps and LED taillamps add a modern appearance, while the package-added roof rails and power liftgate make the Blazer more useful as well as better equipped.
