Chevrolet TrailBlazer

Produced in the US, SUV Chevrolet Trail Blazer is considered the successor to the popular Chevrolet Blazer model, but the main attribute of continuity can be considered, perhaps, a partial commonality in the name.



Trail Blazer absolutely independent model, made on a completely new platform.



In North America, the novelty was unequivocally recognized from the very beginning. In early 2002, Trail Blazer was recognized SUV of the Year in America, having received the most prestigious award,which only a car can get. Even before its overseas recognition, Chevrolet Trail Blazer was introduced in Russia, at motor shows in Moscow and in St. Petersburg. TrailBlazer - powerful and capacious SUV, embodied a lot of original design solutions. Impressive front end, 17 inch wheels create the original and memorable appearance of TrailBlazer.



Particular attention traditionally paid to GMsecurity issues, could not but affect the Trail Blazer. According to this indicator, the SUV is hardly the best in its class, which is confirmed by numerous tests. At the same time Chevrolet not only provides its owner maximum protection, but it differs high maintainability: in case of damage, its repair will cost less than the competition.



Security




High level of security Trail Blazer laid down already in the design of the car. Trail Blazer is made on a new frame with 8 crossbeams (this number is a kind of record for SUVs, the usual number of beams is 4 or 6). At the same time, the spars are made using the hydroforming method, which for the first time, though partially, was used in the design of Tahoe.



Principle of hydroforming is to use, to givesurfaces of desired shapes, high water pressure. This avoids a significant difference in stresses in the deformable metal (that is, the spars are stronger and stiffer), and also reduces the weight of the frame. Also, solid frame guarantees a high level of security.



TrailBlazer is ready for any traffic situation and any weather conditions. Standard equipment includes fog lights, disc brakes all wheels with ABS and two-stage airbagsfilling for the driver and in front of the seated passenger. And wherever your path lies, you will always feel at ease thanks to the integrated Chevrolet TrailBlazer security system.

Rain sensor




The standard equipment of the LTZ version includes a sensorrain, activating the windshield wipers at the moment when water enters the windshield, and automatically selects one of the five modes of operation of the janitors, depending on the intensity of the precipitation.



Electric windows and door locks



TrailBlazer standard equipment includes:Electric windows with locking function from the driver's seat, as well as the central locking of all doors. The locks of the rear doors are locked in the case of an attempt to open from the inside, very useful when the rear seat is occupied by children.



Body




Instead of traditional stamping during manufactureDoor frames TrailBlazer applied laser welding. This technology is used to improve the overall rigidity of the body, which is extremely important in the event of a collision. The same purpose is served by a completely hydroformed body frame and steel protective bars in the doors.
