2027 Chevrolet Trailblazer Limited: US prices and changes

Chevrolet Trailblazer enters the 2027 model year with an unusual update: Limited has been added to its name and prices have gone up even though the crossover itself has barely changed. The base front-wheel-drive LS now costs $23,600, up from $23,300 a year earlier, a $300 increase. The listed US prices exclude destination charges.

The LT gets the same increase, rising from $24,500 to $24,800. The RS starts at $28,200. All-wheel drive adds another $2,000 on most versions, while the surcharge on the RS is $1,600.

The range-topping ACTIV changes the most. It is now offered only with all-wheel drive and starts at $31,400. The increase is not only tied to the new model year: the Driver Confidence and Convenience packages, previously extra-cost options, are now standard. That makes a direct comparison with the former base front-wheel-drive ACTIV misleading.

The mechanical package remains familiar. Front-wheel-drive LS and LT models retain a 1.2-liter three-cylinder turbo engine rated at 137 hp, while the 1.3-liter engine produces 155 hp and is also available with all-wheel drive. Chevrolet has not announced a major body or interior update.

The Limited suffix is particularly notable amid reports of a short production cycle for the 2027 model year. Industry sources say the vehicles will be built for only a few months. A General Motors representative confirmed the rename, but the company has not commented on a possible replacement of the current Trailblazer with a new generation.

Demand for the current model remains strong. US sales reached 32,341 units in the second quarter of 2026, up 28.4% year over year. First-half sales totaled 59,816 vehicles. For now, the new name therefore looks more like a sign of a transition than an attempt to revive weak sales.
