Be calm and continue to move forward
It is no surprise that the Ford Bronco, and Chevy Blast had many commonalities. The Blue Oval is honoring its heritage and Chevrolet creating a completely new crossover in 2020 are two different things. General Motors is certain that the Blazer will not be forgotten, as it was announced by the Blazer’s birth in 2009. The new Bronco’s interior has drain plugs so that it can be cleaned after a long trip. But what about behind the wheel? It’s not hard to see why the Blazer’s off-road performance is a party piece.
However, some customers will be using their vehicle as a people carrier and never put the tires in the dirt. Although many have attempted to make the unibody crossover an aggressive offroader, it is impossible to believe that so many people are trying to do this. All-terrain enthusiasts still use K5 Blazer to build some incredible project cars. Even though BJ Baldwin, a desert racing legend, moved from team Chevy to Toyota’s K5 Prerunner Loki, it remains a favorite for race recon and skill sharpening.
Many fans wish to see a Blazer that can compete with the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler, but it doesn’t appear likely. Brad Franz, the senior marketing manager for Chevy SUVs, is confident in the vehicle’s future and doesn’t plan to alter it. This is a good thing, since the General Motors offering has enjoyed great success since its introduction for the 2019 model year. Chevy sold 40,000 Blazers in 2019, and 60,000 in June 2020. However, 165,000 people applied for a Bronco within the first three weeks of launch.
