2017 Chevrolet Trailblazer (facelift) spied in India for the first time

Could launch next year.

The 2017 Chevrolet Traiblazer (facelift) has been spotted testing in India for the first time, courtesy of Indianhoods. It is heavily camouflaged for prototype testing, although the changes have already been revealed when it went on sale in Brazil.

Most of the changes attributed to the facelift are concentrated on the front-end of the Trailblazer, featuring sleeker headlamps with LED DRLs, wider grille and a more aggressive bumper with larger foglamps. The rest of the Trailblazer is largely identical to the model currently on sale.

Inside, the 2017 Trailblazer will receive an all-new dashboard trimmed with better, premium materials. It is likely to come equipped with an 8-inch MyLink infotainment system that offers Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a slightly updated instrument cluster, and silver accents around the central HVAC vents.

Under the hood, the new Trailblazer will continue offering the 2.8-litre Duramax diesel engine that develops 200 PS and 500 Nm of torque. In the current model, power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed automatic transmission. A mechanical change to note is the new EPAS (electric steering) system, which should further ease maneuverability in cities.
