Chevy Midsize SUV Spy Shots From Southern Europe: Finalizing Future Blazer Rumors

After the rush of new year's releases is over, we reach the time when we are hearing reports back from satisfied customers with details about which of their features are their favorites on their new purchase. Mileage comparisons with past models, enjoying larger touch screens and more powerful engines, and how the new vehicle behaves during long trips are all important items to ponder. Spy shots are one of the mediums that allow us to check out models that present themselves on the horizon, and the shots we have recently gotten our hands on here at O'rielly Chevy appear to have captured our brand's newest midsize crossover during in-depth test runs in southern Europe, being put to the task in extreme heat.

Rumored to be sporting the “Blazer” namesake, this is the new model that is slated to be positioned between the small Equinox, as well as the power-propped and heftier Traverse. The very narrow headlights and grille slats are noticeable right up front, popping out from underneath the camo, and a flatter nose, as well as very upright rear end, are a bit more consistent with the rest of the lineup's appearance. Whether you are an emerging young professional, hard-working contractor, or growing family, the future Blazer's size and stature will appeal to you. This future Blazer strays pleasantly over the larger size visually, conveying a vibe of trustworthiness, and ability to seat passengers comfortably. It will most likely be built upon the Chi crossover platform, which is currently used on the new GMC Acadia, and Cadillac XT5.

It seems plausible that the appropriate engine choices would be the 2.5-liter inline- four for the standard option, as well as the optional 3.6-liter V-6, paired to a nine-speed automatic transmission. The finished product is bound to be a palpable dose of ammunition in the fight against competitors Ford Edge, and Nissan Murano, with a debut date during the Los Angeles Auto Show later this year. Sales of our Traverse and Equinox SUV's were up more than 30 percent during the first quarter of this year, as consumers begin to really fully embrace the modern SUV phenomenon. And honestly, what's not to love? You can navigate easily through urban traffic, have ample space in the back for necessities like groceries and camping gear, and the secure feeling you get with the industry's best and most modern safety features on board.

The new Blazer model will have the choice of front or all-wheel drive, with a look promising to be sportier and a bit more chiseled than past versions. Rumor has it that on the inside, there are circular air vents that are found in the Camaro, and the same steering wheel the current Silverado sports. Back in the 1990's, the Blazer had the honors of snagging the title for Playboy's Truck of the Motor Trend Truck of the Year.

During this era, the Blazer sported a design that had been incorporated with a bit less on the rugged side, a trait that the 2019 model carries through as well. The sales and service staff here at O'rielly Chevy of Tucson avidly claim that the S-10 Blazer and S-15 Jimmy were two of the best generations: we're excited to carry on the tradition of solid builds, stellar handling, and a medium of SUV that will prove itself to be simply irresistible
