Chevy Trailblazer Review: Blazing Engines
Load up your Chevy Trailblazer with your choice of engine. The model comes with two engine options: the ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine or the ECOTEC 1.2L Turbo engine. Here's a comparison of the two:
| ECOTEC 1.2L Turbo Engine | ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo Engine |
- 137 horsepower
- 162 lb-ft torque
- Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT)
- EPA-estimated 30 combined MPG
| - 155 horsepower
- 174 lb-ft Torque
- 9-speed automatic transmission
- EPA-estimated 28 combined MPG
|
The standard engine is the 1.2L Turbo engine. This engine reaches its impressive fuel efficiency, thanks in part to its Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT). This transmission shifts seamlessly through a continuous range of gear ratios. It optimizes your speed and allows your engine to use every drop of fuel.
The 1.3L Turbo engine, however, still manages to clock in an EPA-estimated 28 combined MPG. This makes the model versatile enough to handle city streets and long-distance roadways. Plus, its 174 lb-ft of torque will come in handy for hauling work or recreational equipment.
