While in the U.S., the TrailBlazer was no longer offered, in other countries, that vehicle was still sold, although as a crossover and with a slightly different spelling as the Trailblazer.
In 2012, Chevrolet introduced the Trailblazer for various countries based on the same chassis as the Colorado pickup. Almost eight years later, the bow-tie brand shrunk the vehicle again and used the Buick Encore's platform to produce it. But, in 2023, the crossover got a facelift that kept it fresh on the market and with updated technologies inside.
The 2024 model-year kept the same idea of headlights mounted lower in the bumper and with its DRLs placed above them at the hood's edge. But, unlike its predecessor, it featured a different grille with a honeycomb mesh, and the badge was placed on the chromed horizontal slat, not above it as on the 2020 version. Still, Trailblazer's profile kept the same sculptured doors, and rugged-looking wheel arches adorned with black molds. For the upper trim levels, the 2024 Trailblazer was available with 19" light-alloy wheels.
Inside, the automaker worked its magic and deleted all the analogical dials and gauges from the instrument panel and replaced them with an 8" display fronting the driver. In addition, the redesigned dashboard sported an 11" touchscreen display mounted atop the center stack. But the rest of the cabin remained largely unchanged, with two bucket seats at the front and a split-folding bench in the back suitable for three occupants.
