 The Blazer marches on.
Blazer is not the newest mid-size SUV you could buy. Indeed, Chevy is
launching the all-new 2002 TrailBlazer, a bigger four-door model to better
compete with the Ford Explorer. But the Chevy Blazer still has a loyal
following, particularly among younger buyers, and it will continue to be
sold until 2003. The Blazer remains a competent vehicle and it costs much
less than the new models.
Walkaround
Chevy Blazer is a traditional SUV, all truck with separate body-and-frame
construction. Variations in the grille, bumper, and wheels distinguish one
trim level from another.
All Blazers are powered by a 4.3-liter Vortec V6. This 90-degree V6 has a
cast-iron block and head and overhead valves, and runs happily on 87
octane gasoline. Although redlined at 5600 rpm, it reaches its peak 190
horsepower at 4400 rpm. And, with a very useful 250 pound-feet of torque
at 2800 rpm, there's little need to rev it into the red. GM's four-speed
electronic automatic transmission is standard on four-door Blazers,
although a five-speed manual transmission is available on the two-door
models.
The four-wheel-drive Blazer LS comes with push-button Insta-Trac, which
allows shift-on-the-fly between 2WD and 4WD. The more sophisticated
Autotrac four-wheel-drive system is optional on the LS and standard on LT
and TrailBlazer. Autotrac combines the best of full-time and part-time 4WD
by adding an "Auto 4WD" button. In this mode, the transfer case remains in
2WD until wheel slip is detected. An electric servo then shifts the
transfer case into 4WD until prop shaft speeds are equalized, and then
returns it to 2WD. If multiple "slip events" are detected, the transfer
case remains in 4WD for a longer time. Autotrac also has a transfer case
neutral position for towing behind a recreational vehicle.
All Blazers use a short-/long-arm front suspension and a live axle on leaf
springs at the rear (variable-rate, multi-leaf springs on TrailBlazer).
4x4 models are sprung by torsion bars up front, while 4x2's have coil
springs. Last year's optional Smooth Ride Suspension is no longer offered,
so most Blazers come with the Z85 Touring Suspension. Using firm de Carbon
shock absorbers and stiffer spring rates, the Z85 package has a more
controlled ride than the old Smooth Ride Suspension. The only suspension
variations available in 2001 are the super-heavy-duty ZR2, and of course
the street-performance Z87 suspension that comes exclusively with Blazer
Xtreme. ZR2 substitutes stronger parts throughout the chassis, plus skid
plates, a track bar for the locking rear axle, a 3.9-inch wider tread and
stiffer springs with Bilstein gas-pressure shocks.
Aluminum wheels are standard on all Blazers, differing in design according
to model. Four wheel disc brakes are standard, and the braking system was
upgraded for the 2000 model year.
Interior Features
Expect to step up to get in the Blazer. Though not as radical as larger
4x4 rides, the Blazer has a higher seating height than the typical sedan.
The payback is that commanding view of the road that SUV owners cherish.
Inside, the LT features standard "premium cloth" high-back bucket seats
with eight-way power standard for the driver. Power is optional for the
front passenger seat, and two-setting memory seat adjustment is available
for the driver's seat.
The front seats are broad with limited bolstering. They are more like
comfortable chairs than sports-car bucket seats. An annoying bulge in the
front passenger's footwell accommodates the Blazer's exhaust. The rear
bench is low; it is comfortable for two adults, though three will fit. The
rear seatback splits and folds 60-40 for cargo flexibility.
The Blazer comes with full instrumentation that is well laid out; it
shares its instrument panel with GM's other Blazer-class trucks. General
Motors has made major strides in its minor controls, and the dash of the
TrailBlazer is an excellent example. The switches, knobs and levers for
the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and audio controls look and
feel good and don't require a correspondence course to learn how to
operate.
The LT also includes a leather-wrapped steering wheel, remote keyless
entry, power locks and windows, power heated mirrors, rear window defogger
and wiper, cruise control and lighted visor mirrors. Tilt wheel, two
auxiliary power outlets, AM/FM stereo with CD player, and an overhead
console with an outside temperature readout are also standard. New for
2001 is OnStar, GM's remote communications system, standard on LT and
TrailBlazer. Air conditioning is standard on all Blazers, with automatic
climate control optional on the LT and standard on TrailBlazer.
Driving Impressions
The engine fires off eagerly with a twist of the key and settles to an
idle that's steady but telegraphs some of the basic imbalance of a
90-degree V6. That smoothes as revs increase, and in the operating range
between 2000 and 3000 rpm the Vortec is a friendly companion. Full
throttle causes the V6 to accelerate with a healthy growl that gets louder
as revs rise. The Blazer's acceleration is more than adequate to keep up
with traffic.
The standard Touring suspension is very much in touch with the road, a
characteristic not everyone will appreciate. But the reward is an easily
discernable improvement in responsiveness, a reduction in float and,
thanks to greater roll resistance, less lean in the corners. The result is
an overall greater feel of control and confidence at the minor cost of a
slightly bumpier ride...MORE
