The New 2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer

The 2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer is powered by Chevrolet’s efficient ECOTEC® turbo engine lineup. On the ACTIV and RS models, the SUV comes equipped with a 1.3-liter turbocharged engine that produces a lively 174 pound-feet of torque, providing punchy acceleration whether you’re in town or merging on the highway.

Front-wheel drive comes standard, while all-wheel drive is available for those who want extra confidence on wet or uneven roads. Every Trailblazer benefits from Chevrolet’s thoughtful engineering, with precise steering and a compact size that makes city driving and parking simple.

The Trailblazer may be compact, but it is built with everyday versatility in mind. ACTIV and RS trims maximize performance potential with standard dual exhausts, with a sportier feel and a distinctive sound.

The ACTIV trim is particularly tuned for outdoor adventure, which features off-road suspension calibration and a functional skid plate to help protect vital components when the pavement ends.

In addition, with the ability to handle both your weekday routine and weekend getaways, the Trailblazer proves it’s more than just a city-sized SUV.

The 2026 Trailblazer is unmistakably bold, no matter which trim you choose. With a wide stance, sleek body lines, and a confident grille design, it makes its presence known in urban settings and outdoor escapes. For drivers who want an added touch of individuality, the ACTIV and RS trims feature an available two-tone roofline that creates a striking contrast and enhances their youthful personality.

Wheel options also set each model apart. The LS trim features 17-inch silver-painted aluminum wheels, while the LT upgrades to 17-inch high-gloss black, machined-aluminum designs. The ACTIV trim builds on that same 17-inch style but adds unique rugged elements like titanium chrome accents and a black mesh grille. The RS trim goes a step further by riding on bold 19-inch high-gloss black machined-aluminum wheels that dominate the road and announce the RS’s sporty character.

Chevrolet introduces Apex Red as a new color option for 2026. Additional colors may include White Sands, Mosaic Black Metallic, Marina Blue Metallic, Iridescent Pearl Tricoat, Cacti Green, and Sterling Gray Metallic, depending on trim and availability.

You’ll find an interior designed to balance practicality with comfort. Despite being a small SUV, the cabin feels spacious, with seating for up to five adults. Chevrolet designed the Trailblazer with versatility in mind, so you’ll find thoughtful touches throughout that make everyday life easier.

One standout feature is the fold-flat front passenger seat, which, when combined with the split-folding rear seats, allows for cargo items up to eight and a half feet long. That means longer gear, like skis, furniture, or even a stack of supplies, can be transported with ease. The available hands-free power liftgate adds further convenience, making it simple to load groceries, luggage, or equipment even when your hands are full.

Materials and finishes vary by trim, but every cabin puts the driver first with intuitive controls and clear displays. From durable cloth seating in LS and LT to upscale touches in ACTIV and sporty red accents in RS, the Trailblazer offers a progression of comfort and style that matches every driver’s needs.

Technology is front and center in the 2026 Trailblazer. Chevrolet has equipped every trim with a standard 11-inch diagonal HD color touchscreen, one of the largest in its class. Paired with an 8-inch driver information center display, drivers can enjoy crisp graphics, easy-to-navigate menus, and essential information displayed clearly at all times.

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility come standard, so your favorite apps, maps, and music are always within reach without the hassle of cords. Push-button start also comes standard, and available wireless device charging keeps your phone powered throughout the day. A standard audio system keeps you connected on every drive, while an available Bose premium sound system transforms your playlists into a concert-quality experience.

The cabin’s connectivity features make it easy for passengers to stay engaged. The Trailblazer ensures the technology works seamlessly in the background as you focus on the drive, whether you’re streaming, navigating, or catching up on calls.

Chevrolet places safety at the heart of the Trailblazer experience. Every 2026 model comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, which is a suite of six advanced driver assistance features that help keep you confident behind the wheel. The package includes Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam auto high beams.

Additional systems are available across trims, including an HD rear vision camera for a clear view when reversing and other driver-assist tools that make urban driving and parking stress-free. With these features working alongside the Trailblazer’s solid construction, you and your passengers can feel secure on every trip.

The LS trim sets the foundation for the lineup. It comes with 17-inch silver-painted aluminum wheels, an 11-inch touchscreen, an 8-inch driver display, a fold-flat front passenger seat, and the standard HD Rear Vision Camera included across the lineup.

Practical and efficient, the LS is loaded with essentials that make it a strong value for everyday driving.

The LT trim builds on the LS with style and convenience upgrades. It adds 17-inch high-gloss black machined-aluminum wheels, keyless open and start, and a remote vehicle starter system. Silver-painted roof rails and deep-tinted rear windows, and liftgate glass give the LT a more upscale look without losing its approachable price point.

For those with an adventurous spirit, the ACTIV trim delivers on every level. Powered by the 1.3-liter turbo engine, it features off-road suspension tuning, a functional skid plate, and dual-outlet exhaust with trapezoidal polished tips.

Its rugged personality is underscored by styling touches, such as a titanium chrome-accented grille and high-gloss black, machined-aluminum wheels. As a result, it’s ideal for drivers who enjoy venturing off the beaten path while still appreciating the comfort of the interior and modern technology.

The RS trim sits at the sporty end of the lineup. Also powered by the 1.3-liter turbo engine, it stands out with 19-inch high-gloss black machined-aluminum wheels, a bold black mesh grille with RS badging, and exclusive red interior accents.

On the inside, a flat-bottom heated steering wheel emphasizes its performance-inspired character. Combined with the available two-tone roof option, the RS is designed for those who want their SUV to stand out with unmistakable style and athletic presence.

The 2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer proves that good things come in compact packages. With bold styling, advanced technology, and trims designed for every kind of driver, it’s the small SUV that brings big personality to every journey.
