Chevrolet's toughest, most- refined midsize sport utility vehicle, the TrailBlazer, made its global debut in Lebanon.
The robust seven-seat show vehicle previews Chevrolet's latest SÚV offering, which will be sold around the world.
The new-generation TrailBlazer combines the hauling and towing capability of a body-on-frame SÚV wîth the ride comfort and efficiency of a crossover.
Developed in tandem wîth the all-new Chevrolet Colorado pickup by GM do Brasil, it shares the same architecture as its truck sibling, wîth a chassis tuned to combine heavy-duty off-road capability wîth refined city driving.
The show vehicle features an all-wheel-drive system and is powered by GM's new 2.8-liter Duramax turbo-diesel engine, which features a variable-geometry turbocharger for an optimal combination of performance and fuel economy.
TrailBlazer's bold road presence was created by the GM South America Design Center in São Caetano do Sul, Brazil, and shares a number of design cues wîth its sister vehicle, the Chevrolet Colorado.
Exterior highlights include a 'body in-wheels out' design that delivers high approach and departure angles. A dramatic power dome in the hood combined wîth a raised cowl gives the TrailBlazer a strong, purposeful appearance. Higher-mounted dual projector headlamps are positioned beneath the power dome, emphasizing the visual strength in the face of the vehicle.
