Wheels, Tires and Brakes

Wheel size is the clearest visual difference between the trims, and it changes the ride.

TrimStandard wheel
LS17-inch silver-painted aluminum
LT17-inch high-gloss-black machined aluminum
ACTIV17-inch high-gloss-black machined aluminum
RS19-inch high-gloss-black machined aluminum
Optional18-inch high-gloss-black machined aluminum, $495
TiresAll-season, 225/60R17 on 17-inch wheels

On broken secondary pavement the 17-inch wheel rides on a taller sidewall and is the more forgiving of the two; the 19-inch RS wheel is the sharper-looking one.

Efficiency

Fuel Economy and Range

EPA ratings differ by engine and drivetrain, and the base engine is not the most efficient one on the highway.

Safety

Safety and Compliance

Chevy Safety Assist is standard across the lineup: a suite of six driver-assistance features covering Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, the Following Distance Indicator and IntelliBeam automatic high beams.

An HD rear vision camera is standard equipment throughout. Three further aids arrive together in the Driver Confidence Package at $395: blind-zone alert, rear cross-traffic alert and rear park assist. Published crash-test results from NHTSA and the IIHS, the low scores included, are tabulated on the technology and safety page.

Coverage

Warranty Coverage

Every new Trailblazer carries the same GM coverage, and rust-through and corrosion are two separate terms rather than one.

In Practice

What These 2026 Trailblazer Numbers Mean in Practice

Specifications only matter where they touch your week. Here is what these ones translate to.

The numberWhat it means where you drive
71.2 in wide without mirrorsA standard single-car garage opening is 8 feet, so this leaves roughly a foot each side before mirrors. It garages where a mid-size crossover has to be aimed.
174.1 in longJust over 14.5 feet, so it fits a 16-foot driveway apron with room behind, and parallel parking on a narrow borough street is not an event.
65.2 in tallClears the 6-foot-8 bar on most parking decks. Add a roof box and measure again before you commit to one.
39.0 in of second-row legroomNobody in front has to surrender seat travel for the row behind to work. A third passenger across the back bench is a short-hop arrangement, as it is throughout this class.
13.2-gallon tank at 31 mpg combinedRoughly 400 highway miles between fills with the 1.3L and front-wheel drive, which makes a Harrisburg-and-back day a single-tank trip.
3,029 pounds curb weightLight for the class, and the reason a 137-horsepower three-cylinder returns 30 mpg in town.
1,000 pounds of towingA small single-axle utility trailer, once the $1,025 trailering package is properly equipped on a front- or all-wheel-drive car. Anything heavier is a different vehicle's job.
2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer interior detail and controls

Specifications are the beginning of the decision, not the end of it. The stretch of Route 143 north toward the ridge, the lanes around Bally, the longer haul over from Lebanon and the run along the Schuylkill River tell you more about how a car rides on this region's pavement than any dimension will, and both are ten minutes from the lot. Call (610) 674-0598 or book a test drive and we will hand you the keys. Owners across Berks County make the drive here — up US-222 from Reading, down Route 61 from Schuylkill Haven — and Pottsville and Morgantown are no further away than the towns nearer Cabela's.
