Personally im not a fan but I have a lot of family members with them because they are dirt cheap to lease if you have a family member who is a GM employee (at least 50% of people in my area).
The V6 is great, but the turbo is better for MPG& the259 torque comes in a low rpm’s it’s the perfect marriage of power & efficiency it’s perfect for daily driving who needs to go faster than 7.3? Turbo is plenty quick w as bd returns great MPG!
We just traded in our 2022 2LT Blazer with the 2.0L Turbo. We routinely got over 26 mpg on the highway. Driving to Florida last year, we were averaging around 550 miles per tank of gas...try that in your EV. A couple of months ago, I took it from Boston to Michigan (about 930 miles) and only had to stop for gas once in New York. But, like others have said, Blazers are way overpriced.
2.0 turbo seems to be the best match for that SUV that never should have been called Blazer. Great inside style. Doesn’t eat timing chains. Is the mpg materially higher than the 3.6?
Speaking from personal experience the 2.0's transmission blows. Cruising at 75mph on the PA turnpike the engine was whining at roughly 2300rpm because it was only in 8th gear. For some baffling reason it wouldn't shift into 9th even if I tried manually. I called the dealer and the service dude found some bulletin stating that's normal behavior. WTF is the point of a 9 speed transmission if it's not going to use all 9 gears? My 21 Blazer 3LT/V6 ran me 439/mo with whatever incentives were going on at the time and to get exactly what I had would have ran me over 600/mo for a 24 so I scaled down to a 2LT/Turbo 4. Big mistake. Stick with the V6 if you're thinking about getting one of these.
Thank you Ben for another GM review. I kust watched your Toyota Crown review. This is the follow up. It is hard to believe so many new Chevrolets have luxury features you expect to see on more upscale vehicles. It is interesting because I am sure there is a Buick and GMC looming close by in terms of features and luxury.
The people commenting the price are idiots. Im personally not a fan and only buy Hondas/Toyotas but most people with these lease em for dirt cheap because they get the GM employee discount from a family member.
Im being honest, my girlfriend has a blazer and I think it’s pretty good. My mom has an escape which is pretty good too. Comparing them, I like them both the same.
Not for $51K.
I bet the resale value is going to be weak on these.
@@arthurwright255 Yes.

Over price.
Under circumstances such as that, it would make sense.@@carguy-xv2cl

So the new blazer ev’s are being reported by owners hitting 550 miles as well on a full charge surprisingly
They should make a V6 Turbo version. That would be VERY FUN!
The snail at the end of Turbo on the thumbnail was a nice touch 😂

51k😂😂
My thoughts too, exactly!!!!
Like the V6!
Just add a Turbo to the V6 and that would be VERY FUN!!!
Now my perfect new Chevy Blazer I can buy.

Needs the newer 2.5 turbo
Price should be $43,000

How is it a 2024 and it already looks old? LOL! Would be fine if it were cheaper at least.
Another reason to buy a ford.

Easily 15k overpriced.
Can you talk any faster?
Possibly one of the worst vehicles on sale today. Until 4th gen tacoma comes out
Blazers have always been pricier than they are worth. Lame interiors and terrible MPG for what they charge.
Typical Gm 😁😁😁
