Is the 2019 Chevy Blazer RS a BOOM or BUST?

The ALL NEW Chevy Blazer back, but is it better then ever? This Blazer RS features the tried and true 3.6L V6 under the hood mated to a 9 speed automatic gearbox. From it's eye catching exterior to it's Camaro inspired interior does the 2019 Blazer RS deliver?

I was looking forward to it when Chevy announced a new Blazer.

Richard Skipper For over $50k, yea it is. That’s not enough power to even get a Camaro moving that quick. 0-60 in 6.5, that’s slower than modern day pickups. It looks way too aggressive for what it actually is, they should of gone all out and brought us their own Grand Cherokee SRT /Trackhawk on the Alpha frame instead of this since they didn’t make it a rugged off-road SUV like the original Blazer. Plus the Ford Edge ST puts down 335HP and 380TQ with the 10-speed , and does 0-60 in 5.7 for a couple thousand less. Why would you pay more for less?

[@robbwollney6079]

What nobody is discussing is the fact that this new blazer fits into the mid-size sport suv category along side the Jaguar E-Pace or Land Rover Evoque. Those both retail for $52-54 k with the same options and engine size. For that reason, this vehicle fills a nice niche. Using the Blazer insignia may or may not be the right choice, but the vehicle itself appears to be solid and sporty and sexy. Just not for any off-road duties, YET (maybe a Trail Blazer to come?).

Bust looks like any other SUV in their lineup. If GM was smart they should have come out with an SUV to compete with the Bronco before the Bronco came out. Missed opportunity IMO.

[@RaitisRides]

Agreed! Very good points!

Pretty sure the headlights you are referring to are LED DRLs, and the "fog lights" are the actual HID headlights. Anyone reviewing cars should be able to tell the difference between LEDs and HIDs.

My first car/truck was a 74 K5 Blazer. When Chevy announced it would be returning, I was excited. I'm mid 50's. I own four companies. I can afford to relive my childhood. I just sold my main vehicle. I was about to shop for a new truck and remembered, a new Blazer was coming out. I searched KZbin. Then...I saw this video. What. The. HELL? My Blazer is big. My Blazer has a big V8. My Blazer went out and jumped and danced on the backroad trails of Malibu. My Blazer tows. My Blazer has a removable top. THIS... isn't my Blazer. Guess I'm waiting for the new Jeep Pickup.

@@fordz3781 yeah. Chevy cars and the trucks have taken a turn for the worse i think. But i am a huge corvette fan. But they are coming out with a mid engine vette next year. the c8 generations! Heard its gonna be no less than 70k. But i heard sooo many rumors, speculation , etc etc. Thats toooo much money! cars are deff not the same in price as they used to be. The industry has really changed! i remember going to the car show in nyc, april 1993, and oldsmobile was the biggest display there! Audi had 2 or 3 cars. pontiac was another huge one at that show. No such things as suvs then. FUKIN CRAZY!

@@antoniocognato5023 no such thing as a suv in the 90's you say? Well guess my 1983 Hybrid (able to change from a SUV to a truck or convertible) Chevrolet Silverado K-5 Blazer don't exist anymore...or the Ford Broncos, or the Dodge Ram Chargers, they were SUV hybrids to. Better to be an idiot and be silent, than open your mouth, and remove all doubt.

This is the problem with relying on dealerships to review a car. You have to dickride a 50k Chevy crossover (which overlaps the starting price of a Tahoe, wtf) or they won't give you any more cars. How many times can you say Moss family Chevrolet. Jesus.

I’m an import guy but I sat in a Blazer RS today and it is the comfiest 2 row under $100,000 I’ve sat in. Chevy nailed the interior proportions perfectly. Nice and roomy with the perfect step-in height. Wife and I were leaning towards an Audi Q8 for our luxury 2 row. The Blazer doesn’t have the glitz, prestige or gizmos but man is it a comfy suv

[@SEVENZEROTWO]

I personally think it's a bust. While it's nice and sporty, I'm worried about the quality more than anything, considering that it's made and Mexico and it has a very inflated price point. The 9 speed is an uncommon transmission with reports of shuttering around 5-10k miles for the 9t65 model. Being made in Mexico means you have a generally less skilled workforce assembling your vehicle in a foreign country that has completely different supply chains than a vehicle made in the US, Canada, or Japan. This does not necessarily mean that this is a good thing. My personal opinion is to steer clear of this until people report that this vehicle is good after 2-3 years of ownership. I personally won't buy a Vehicle from Mexico.
