Chevy Trailblazer 2015

newkid · January 28, 2015

Hey all, new to the forum but have been browsing here for information for some time. Hopefully this is an OK place for me to post this as I believe the Trailblazer is on the same platform as the Colorado.

Anyone else want this in the US? The 2.8l puts out 200hp and 369 lbft of torque. It comes in a manual too but only for the 2.5l 2wd!

Anyone have any information on the possibility of the trailblazer coming back to the US?

I have seen a few in person driving around Milford, MI. Definitely a cool vehicle that I would consider...but as far as I know, GM has no plans of bringing it to the US, since we prefer a Crossover vs. the IMO better body on frame SUV.

I haven't been to Milford in a while. I work for a supplier as an Intern. I would love to see it in person.

Ugly ass end but the rest looks nice.

It looks like a pregnant equinox

Not just like, I think it really is a re-badged Equinox for another market.

Nope, I believe the Equinox is based on a front wheel drive platform. Where this is on a RWD/solid rear axle midsize pickup platform.

Equinox can get awd

kstruckcountry · January 30, 2015

Still transverse engine though right?

Yes kstruckcountry [emoji4][emoji4]

I'd check into one I hate how the midsize crossovers are all FWD based. Rear wheel drive is real wheel drive.

I would like a rwd equinox 3.6 with a steel driveshaft and g86 [emoji15]

You won't see it here. GM is pretty committed to the Traverse/Acadia and Equinox/Terrain and I doubt they'll go back to a full frame SUV when crossovers sell better. It is also unlikely we'd see the diesel and we absolutely won't see a manual. No one buys manual SUVs which is why they don't exist anymore for the most part.
