Chevrolet Blazer
Chevrolet brought back the Blazer name in 2019. Although quite different from previous generations, the new midsize SUV stands out from the competition with sharp lines and sporty looks. For 2022, the base 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine has been eliminated. That leaves customers with a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder and a 3.6-litre V6. The interior offers seating for five. Interestingly, a Blazer EV is slated to arrive by mid-decade.
