    Holden Trailblazer Review, For Sale, Specs, Interior, Colours & Models

    FROM
    $27,610

    In 2017 Holden updated and renamed its Colorado7 SUV to create the Trailblazer.

    Apart from the new name, the Trailblazer also scored a slew of upgrades over its predecessor including tech and safety updates, as well as an upgraded version of the 2.8-litre diesel engine.

    It still shared much of its ladder chassis and subsequent off-road ability with the Colorado ute, although the Trailblazer range was 4x4 only.

    Prices ranged from the entry-level $27,610 Trailblazer LT (4X4) to the $40,590 Trailblazer Z71 (4X4).

    The name-change and updates came to better position the Trailblazer against rivals like the Toyota Fortuner, Isuzu MU-X and Mitsubishi Pajero Sport.

    The Trailblazer was retired along with the rest of the Holden brand by the end of 2020.

    This vehicle is also known as The Holden Trailblazer is also known as Chevrolet Trailblazer in markets outside Australia..

    Holden Trailblazer FAQs

    Broken second-row seat in my 2016 RG7 Trailblazer

    You might find you have two separate problems here. The plastic clip is one thing, but there’s no way a passenger seat would be locked into place with a plastic component. It will almost certainly involve a metal ring or clasp mounted to the floor around which the locking mechanism on the seat locks.

    Here’s a possibility, though: perhaps the broken piece of plastic from the broken clip has somehow managed to work its way into the seat locking mechanism and is not allowing the seat to fully clamp into position. Fold the seat up and have a good look around at the clamps or locking rings in the floor. Even if it’s not the errant piece of plastic, you might find a build up of dust or mud is not allowing the seat to find its locked position.

    The other chance is that the locking mechanism has somehow closed onto itself before it has found the locking ring. If that’s the case, you may be able to take a screwdriver and pry the lock open before trying to lock the seat back into place. Be careful, however, as these locking mechanisms are often spring loaded and will crush a finger placed in the wrong spot.

    What towing vehicle should I buy?

    Your towing needs will dictate a big car. Others you could consider are the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Isuzu MU-X, Holden Trailblazer, or Ford Everest.

    What is the ground clearance of the Chevrolet Trailblazer?

    The Chevrolet Trailblazer has a ground clearance of 231mm, while the Holden Trailblazer has 213mm of ground clearance.

    Holden Trailblazer Interior

    The Holden Traiblazer shares a lot with the Colorado ute that it's based upon, and that includes an interior that looks good on first impression, but has some cheap elements to the trim, particularly the leather. As you'll see in these images, the dashboard trim is rugged but feels harsh, but it has a good media screen and practicality in the cabin is good. There are seven seats, and adults can fit in the third row.
