Customers at dealerships like the Chinle Chevrolet dealer are excited by the 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer, thanks to its athletic styling borrowed from the Camaro and its wide array of tech features.

Cars.com gave the 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer high marks, writing: “The 2021 Trailblazer straddles the subcompact and compact SUV classes. It’s big enough for a small family but not so big that it can’t handle the constraints of city life. ... I found plentiful cargo room and a backseat that was large enough to comfortably fit my 6-foot frame — with a few inches of space between my knees and the seatback. Backseat headroom was also ample, and the Trailblazer on display featured the available panoramic moonroof, which opens up the cabin even more.”
