The 2026 Chevrolet Blazer gives you two excellent engine choices, paired with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission.

**Standard 2.0L Turbocharged 4-Cylinder:** Delivers 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Perfect for efficient commuting and long-distance travel while maintaining strong everyday performance.

**Available 3.6L V6:** Offers 308 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque for drivers who want more spirited, responsive power. Ideal if you plan to tow or want extra acceleration.
